let's get this party started.

Ding dong! Hi there! Come on in, the party is in full swing and it nearly started without me!

I'm so sorry I'm Late! What a day! Well, there's a party going on right here! There's going to be lots of fun and challenges and we're going to have such a good time!

Firstly, here is the sketch challenge. Now this challenge is normally going to be once a month, but we've got a special one for you tonight! You can either play along and enter tonight, or you can do it over the next couple of days as the winner is going to be announced next Friday evening. So have fun, and see what you can come up with! If you use the Clare Curd Signature Range to make your card, your entry will count twice. The winner will be chosen randomly so everyone has a chance of winning. The winner of the sketch will win a Clare Curd signature range stamp set! Good Luck! Here is the sketch:

Also tonight we have a colour challenge. Again this will normally be monthly be boy do we have a double whammy for you! This is the colour challenge for this week. Again you have until friday but it would be great if you could play along tonight. The lucky winner will also win some Clare curd Signature range goodies!Finally, we have a Treasure Hunt. As you know the Stampin Chic Chicks have been very busy this week making cards for your delectation, and the next blog for you to visit tonight is Sheila Halliwell. You were supposed to go to her blog at 7.00pm, but me being unfashionably late (and letting everyone down in the process) has left us running behind time. She should be ready for you when you have finished reading this post. What you have to do for this treasure hunt is visit all the blogs and collect answers to the questions that the DT members give you. When you have collected all the clues,the first person to give me the correct answer to each of the questions by commenting on this post will win a Clare Curd Signature range stamp set!

So, the first question on this Treasure Hunt is:

1. Which DT member also has a Blog called "Blogskin Boutique"?

So go hunting and find the answers to our questions. All the answers are on the DT's blogs, so keep your eyes peeled.

Seeing as I'm running late, I will be posting my contribution to the Sketch and colour challenge, plus some other cards at the finale, which will be back here at approx 11pm.

I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all the DT members who have worked SO hard all week to make this party a success, and I've gone and spoilt it all. I would like to apologise to you all for being so tardy with time and letting you all down. I will explain all in due course.

Well, I think that's it. The next Blog to Hop is Sheila's! She has some FANTASTIC cards to show you all, so what are you waiting for, go!

Love, Clare x
