Feb 08 House Challenge LOVE RIBBONS by Ribbon Oasis

[scrappybunny]

Welcome to a brand new year of House Challenges.

We've really enjoyed our travelling around the globe (2006) and around the UK (2007) with our Sponsors and collecting Scrappy Miles, however this year we are making a slight change and each challenge will still have a theme but will also be related to a tool or product.

Our first challenge of the year is sponsored by Ribbon Oasis (http://www.ribbonoasis.co.uk), so I'm sure you'll guess the theme / challenge product this month is...

LOVE / RIBBONS

So, to complete the challenge, you'll need to create a layout with a LOVE theme, and use RIBBONS, its as simple as that!



Ribbon Oasis (http://www.ribbonoasis.co.uk) is an online store specialising in ribbon. At any one time there is often over 1500 different ribbons online – giving plenty of choice for all ribbon lovers. Ribbon Oasis stocks ribbons from May Arts – American Crafts – Adorn-it to name just a few. They offer mini-collections every month and also source seasonal ribbons that are often not available elsewhere.



We’re looking forward to seeing what you come up with…



and finally, deadlines and rules

Uploading:
Your layouts must be uploaded to your House Gallery - make sure you put the word 'FEBRUARY' at the front of your title, for example "FEBRUARY - My Layout Title".

We hope you'll enjoy the challenge and are looking forward to seeing your entries.

[MiniOwner]

Thank you for a great challenge. Here's (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=150981&cat=500&ppuser=22361) my entry for the Gold Eyelets.

I did upload it to the gallery before midnight!

[elliebaby]

Hi there ...just a question

I see the gold eyelets have a poll but none of the other Houses have polls as yet ...any particular reason why?

[SharonMcD]

I was wondering about that too Ellie.

[JulieSE]

Who is the blue brads house leader? There is no poll for the blue brads.

[Scrapcomber]

It is Peechy but i haven't seen her around , maybe away for half term?

[MiniOwner]

Can anyone point me to the poll please - can't find it!

[scrappybunny]

the final poll isnt up yet, but it will be shortly :)
