Hi everyone!
Welcome to November! It's my favourite time of the year. I get to start putting away some winter clothes and venturing out in sandals (only if it's over 26 degrees!). I also love the anticipation of a camping holiday, and the crafty fun that comes with the Christmas festivities.

Next week we are launching our SEVEN WEEK Christmas Countdown. YES it's getting closer! So for this week we are a little themeless... Well not quite! Last week I sent out some Design Team challenges. The idea was for a bit of in-house fun but we've decided to blow it open and get them to show you what they have managed to come with. I sent them all some Kaisercraft Merry and Bright papers (new this week instore). To be honest, it's not exactly Merry or Bright (LOL!) but rather Vintagey and we look forward to seeing what each of the team comes up with. I did give them until the end of November - but some of the girls have been busy in their packs already - and so this week we'll reveal some of their projects.

Above shows the entire collection. But all the Design Team got was some papers, collectables and organza ribbon with a note which read "No Rules!" So who knows what they will come up with!

Meanwhile, Miss Betsy was busy a few months ago playing with this range and she's had 4 of her Merry and Bright cards published in the November Kaisercraft workshop magazine. Did you know this magazine is FREE. Just add it to an existing order - or select $2.10 postage at the checkout and we'll send it to you.
So here are Betsy's creations for you to admire...


Keep your eye on our posts. Some lucky person will win some Merry and Bright papers this month. Will it be you? Let us know if you are interested in some!
