Challenge 12 ... Christmas Trees...

Here, at Humbug Hall, Friday is new challenge day - WHOOHOO! -  which is usually a very exciting time for us!
However, this Friday is tinged with a little sadness as we must bid a fond farewell to our March Guest Designers, Fiona and Judith.  Can you believe their time is up ALREADY?! 
They've shared some wonderful techniques during their stay with us and we've really apppreciated having such talented guests at Humbug Hall.    So on behalf of everyone, visitors, regulars and newbies, we'd like to thank you ladies for all your hard work, generosity and commitment. 
For their Challenge Finale, we chose the theme of
Christmas Trees
and, as you will see from their beautiful cards below, they have not disappointed us, so will leave here with their heads held high.  As always, if you'd like to know more details about this week's DT projects, or leave some love for Ann, Judith and Fiona,  please click on the links above each card to visit their personal blogs.

Ann at 'Just for Fun'

Judith - Poppy Cottage


Fiona - Leaves From My Notebook


*********************
The deadline for this challenge is 
12 noon (UK time)
Thursday 31st March 2011
 *********************
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 don't forget to leave us a direct link to your project in our comment box so we can come and admire your creativity. 

Next week we will be showcasing 2 brand new Guest Designer's talents 
AND....
as it's the first challenge of a new month, there's another lovely prize on offer for one lucky random entry .... so our message to you all is ...
"Keep smiling and carry on crafting!"

  6. Judith and Fiona, you've inspired me all month with your wonderful projects and set the bar really high for those of us who will be following the rest of the year!! You two, along with Ann, have given us another beautiful set of projects to inspire. Can't wait to get started. Now Christmas tree images is something I have no shortage of! Big hugs to y'all!

  30. Hi there - thanks for commenting on my card - I'm sure you are having a great time together and hope that Max is keeping up with her physio and will soon be able to get back to crafting. It must be so frustrating but I presume minimal crafting also equates to minimal housework so not all bad!!

  31. Me again, hope you ladies are behaving yourselves in Bonnie Scotland? Then again.... So, as promised, here's my second card for this week.

    Hugs
