Challenge 46... Feeling The Blues...

Oh My Giddy Aunt!
You can't begin to imagine how emotional we're feeling at Humbugger Hall this week as we prepare to announce our final challenge of 2010.  We feel extremely privileged to have experienced such fantastic support and encouragement from so many wonderful people across the globe throughout our debut year.   In fact, you have all been so amazing that "Thank you" doesn't seem enough to convey our appreciation somehow.    
You have proven to be a real bunch of 
Bah! Humbug! Christmas Crackers!
Maybeeeeeeee ... if we said it a gazillion times ... accompanied by humungous Humbugger Hugs ... and a multitude of lip-smacking "Mwah's" ... then you would be a little closer to imagining how chuffed we are.   Hopefully, you will all join us again in January as we have planned a whole host of new challenges for 2011 and would love to share them with you.
In the meantime though, we need to get this week's challenge under way and although it is another colour theme, we felt it was an appropriate one to end with as it kind've reflects how much we're going to miss you. 
Yes ... we're understandably
Feeling The Blues
BUT ... we're only having a brief hibernation and we all know how quickly time flies, so we're managing to keep our mouths turned UP at the corners ... so far that is!
Once again, we will allow you to use other colours too but our challenge is to use shades of blue as your project focus.  
Our final gallery of DT gorgeousness is below and we're joined for the last time by Pat from Pip's Pastimes blog.  She has used a nice cheery image to help everyone keep those spirits up ... which also helps with the mouth corners too LOL!
We'd like to thank you Pat for being such a wonderful Guest Designer this month and hope she will consider volunteering again next year ... *hint, hint* ... it has been an absolute pleasure having you on our team.  Full details of all our projects can be found by clicking our names below and visiting our personal blogs.



The deadline for this challenge is

12 noon (UK time)
Thursday 2nd December 2010

You are free to create whatever you like ... it doesn't have to be a card ... in fact, show us as many different Christmas projects as you want to share.
Just remember ... have fun and leave us a direct link to your project in our comment box so we can come and admire your creativity. 

SO!  That's that then!  Finished!  Nothing much left to say except off you go and get to work.  Go on!  Don't dilly-dally!  We're expecting the same wonderful results as we've had all year so don't think of slacking off!
OH ... almost forgot to remind you that next week we have our last bit of housekeeping to do when we announce the winner and runner up of our Special Prize Draw ... SQUEAL!  SO EXCITING!

Ann, Irene, Max

  4. More great DT cards and we don't need to feel too blue 'cos you will be back next year.  Afraid I couldn't decide which of these to send when I'd made them so afraid you have them both as this is the last week.  Good luck everyone in the draw - still somethong to look forward to for another Friday.

    The cards are on my blog

  20. Well girls you have kept me from having a mad rush to get all my Christmas cards done and I've had the luxury of doing something different each week rather than just making a batch of the same kind of cards just to get them done.
    Will be back to join you again next year but for now
    here is my final offering for this year.

    Thanks for all the inspiration and Merry christmas and Happy New Year to you all.
