Anything Goes

Good evening crafty people

Well yet again I'm running late with my blog post for our new challenge over at Bearly Mine Designs, however I do have a good excuse I've had my mum in emergency and had to take her for tests the following day and then end up with Chicken Pox myself. Boy it's so itchy I can't believe it, who gets chicken pox at my age, just grateful it isn't too bad a case as it could lead to shingels for older people.

So this week's challenge at Bearly Mine Designs is a "Anything Goes" challenge, now who doesn't love one of those, they seem to be the most popular. I've just been over to the blog and there is already almost 200 entries, I better get my typing fingers ready and start visiting some of the blogs before it's gets too much. It is great to see so many people participating and I always look forward to seeing what each and everyone comes up with.

So onto our sponsors for this challenge and they are

offering a $10.00 gift certificate

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and it isn't heating up too much over in the UK as it is now finally starting to get a little chilly here in Aus.

As always I can't wait to see what you all create and I would also like to pass on my apologies to our entries from last week's challenge as I was unable to do my commenting but will make sure that it is done this week.
