WELCOME

The Roman poet Horace is attributed with saying that a picture is a poem without words. Well, that's what we like to think too, although some words will be allowed (what's a card without the occasional sentiment). Welcome to the Without Words Challenge where we want you to create clean and simple cards, focusing on the image without the distractions of too many embellishments. We hope you enjoy this challenge as much as we do!

BLUE and BROWN

Sadly we waved goodbye to one of our longest running sponsors a little while ago and we cannot thank Elaine and Quixotic Paperie enough for all the support given to us - Elaine was on board with us from day one, and I know we are not the only ones to miss her and her fabulous shop.

However, as one door closes, another one opens and this time we are thrilled to be able to welcome a new sponsor to join us by way of the ever delightful Stephanie and Jenny from


So, you know the rules by now (they are in the sidebar if you don't)

Of course, what would a challenge be without inspiration from the Birds



















Oooh, all that lovely blue, I can feel myself cooling down already

Naturally, we cannot leave you without announcing our winners from June so they are

Super cards everyone, and they have perfectly put me in the mood for my summer hollibobs next week!

Hugs to all
