Hello All - Janet here.
We were wowed by your resist entries - wasn't it a fab technique with so many mediums to explore? Thanks for playing along with us and do check back next Friday when the winners and top 5 are announced.
Now onto this weeks challenge which is to use a POPPY in your creation. Here in Skipton the British Legion are very active and my Husband is organising a fund raising concert on the 25th October. He asked me a while ago if I thought I could get some cards together to sell at the concert and Jill and Ian have so kindly allowed us to have a Poppy challenge week to try and get some more cards together. So this week we would like to see Poppies on your creations. If you would like to donate your creation to The concert here in Skipton you can post your work to The Stamp Man (address at the bottom of this post) but you are not obliged to - you can enter the challenge with any Poppy themed project and will be eligible for the prize and top places whether you send them in or not.
The team have been very creative with their projects so without further ado here is some inspiration.
