Challenge 27 - Our One Year Celebration!!!

Welcome to our one year celebration!

Our challenge blog has been running for a year and we're celebrating by having a challenge all about best friends.

***Design Team Call***

But before I tell you about our challenge, we're also running a Design Team Call - we would love to add some more people to our team.

This is what's involved:

1. You need to make a card for each challenge - our challenges are every two weeks.

2. You need to be comfortable using digi stamps as we have sponsors for most of our challenges.

3. You will be asked to comment on challenge entries - if we get enough people joining the team it will be one number in ten but otherwise, two numbers in ten.
4. You need to have a Facebook account as our DT group is there.
  Interested?  E-mail me at
madebyhelenblog@yahoo.com with some information about yourself and a link to you blog.
