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!

OCTOBER CHALLENGE: PUMPKINS!

Hello Artists!  Welcome to another monthly challenge where we like to play WITHOUT WORDS - We loved looking at your anniversary cards, and we really hope you enjoy this challenge too.

This month, which is OCTOBER, our challenge is PUMPKINS (think oranges, browns and greens).

We are looking forward to seeing what you make of this one and viewing your fabulous creations.  Please remember to follow our CAS definition and the theme of this months challenge for your entry to be a valid one.

We are very happy to announce the arrival of our new Word Bird, the very talented SUE (Bearhouse) to our design team, and you can see Sue's debut card below.  A big warm welcome to you hunny.

Our sponsor for October is the lovely Teresa at MY CRAFTY HEART with a £10 voucher for the winner


Our very talented Design Team (the Word Birds) have created their usual high standard of magic to inspire you.  An awful lot of time is spent by the team in creating these mini works of art so don't forget that it would be nice if you have time to visit their individual blogs and share the love.

DELPHINE and JANE are missing in action this month but we hope that they are both back with us for our November challenge.  The remaining Word Birds have had a super time with this theme, I think it is safe to admit that we all love autumn colours!







 
 
 
I think you have to agree, the standard of artwork from these ladies is nothing short of inspiring
