Well October certainly hasn't tippy-toed in has it? More like put on it's tacketty-boots and stomped it's way through the first week. Not sure about elsewhere in the world but here in the UK there's been a HUGE contrast between North and South. It's blimmin' Baltic in the North Wing at Humbug Hall where there's been hailstones, gale force winds, torrential downpours and ... can you believe SNOW! But those residing in the South Wing have been subjected to a veritable heatwave where clothes have been discarded hither and thither, lots of BBQ's and Al Fresco dining have been enjoyed and sun lotion sales have shot through the roof!
EEEEEEEH ... it's weird!
However all this weather 'Humpty-Dumpty-ness', can't be allowed to interfere with our weekly Challenges because, (in case you didn't know), there's ONLY 78 sleeps left now until The Big Day arrives ... EEEK! ... and we need to keep your card-making momentum at it's peak to make sure you're well prepared. So how better to achieve that than by providing you with the very best inspiration from the most talented people we can find! And YES ... we have them ALL here at Humbug Hall! You'd better believe it!
This month we Humbuggers are pleased and delighted to introduce 2 fantastic new ticketty-boo Guest Designers to our humble abode, so please extend a warm welcome to Kendra-Sue - KSD Creations and Brenda - Butlers Abroad - WHOOP-WHOOP WELCOME LADIES!
They're going to blow you away from your computer screens with their wonderful projects for this week's challenge which is ...
