Hello, and welcome to our August Anything Goes Challenge!

This month we are sponsored by the wonderful Fred She Said who are offering a $10 gift voucher to our lucky winner, chosen by random.org. Hop on over to see the fabulous selection of digi stamps, both black and white and coloured, as well as papers, decoupage and cutting files.

Thank you for all your wonderful entries last month! The DT had a difficult time choosing favourites!

 The winners post and DT Favourites can be found on the winners page (click on the tab above). If you are a winner, please collect a badge to proudly display on your blog. 

Sadly, we have said goodbye to three DT members. Mary, Kerri-Ann, and Tabitha have had to step down due to personal commitments. We want to thank them for the time they spent with us and we wish them all the very best for the future.

That means we are now looking for two new DT members to join our friendly team. 

Previous experience is not necessary, but we do ask that you be willing to commit to a period of 6 months with the option to stay longer. As we are a monthly challenge this entails making just one project each month.

In order to join us you will need to :-

• Have a Blog
• Have a Facebook Account

Be prepared to :-

• Produce one piece of work each month using the sponsor's digi stamp, photograph it and blog it.
• Comment on entries to the CGE Challenge each month.

We have a lovely DT and it is a great one to belong to, so please consider joining us!

The DT Call will run for the month of August, with successful applicants joining us for their first Challenge in October.

If you have any questions please ask!

If you are interested in joining our team, please put DT after your name in the inlinkz or, if you prefer, email Carole at cardsgaloreencore@yahoo.co.uk

We look forward to hearing from you!

We hope you can find some crafty time this month and we look forward to seeing your entries!
