November Technique Challenge and DT Call

Hello! It's April here. I hope that as a fun part of all your Christmas preparations you will be able to join us for this month's technique challenge. However, before we get to the challenge, a final reminder about the DT Call.

DESIGN TEAM CALL

It's the last challenge of the month:

• Week 4 - Stash/Technique

If you have played along with THREE  of the challenges this month, and put the letters DT after your name on your entry submission, we will be considering all applicants next week.  We will contact successful applicants no later than Saturday 5th December.  Those selected will join the DT with our first post on Saturday 10th January, 2016.

And now, our Technique Challenge:

We would like to see your Christmas or winter themed cards that use the techniques of sponging or brayering. I'm sure that we will see some fabulous inky effects! Please read our challenge rules carefully before submitting your card.

I hope that you will feel inspired by the DT's cards!

If you wish to be considered you need to play along with THREE of the four challenges this month. If you've done Week 1 and 2, then you need only do 1 of the remaining challenges, but you can do them all if you want!! Put the letters, DT, after your name on your entry submission.  We will contact successful applicants during December and the new DT members will start with us in January 2016.

Before we go, a quick reminder about word verification on comments.  The Design Team loves to visit your blogs and comment on your work, but this process is made much harder by having to go through comment verification on each comment.  Please can you make sure that you have this turned off in your blog settings.  Go to "settings", then to "post and comments" and where it says "show word verification" - select NO.  Thank you so much for your help.  Now - go have fun crafting!!
