Challenge #43 - No Backing Papers

Thursday 29 October 2009
Hello, it's time for our weekly challenge here at Charisma and it's me, Jan, setting this week's theme. I've chosen "No Backing Papers" to be used on your card/project, and the rest is up to you! Remember it can be a card, ATC, altered project, whatever you like.
We've another fab sponsor for you this week:



And here's a bit about them and a link to their website is here:

At Donna's Den of Crafts we stock a wide range of products from Dovecraft, DCWV, Bind-It-All,

Crafter's Companion, Crafting with Stephanie, Joanna Sheen and so on. We are a small home-run business and pride ourselves on customer service. Most orders are sent out within 24 hours of payment subject to stock levels


They have very kindly offered the winner of this week's challenge a choice of one of five different Popcorn the Bear CD's - Mens, Florals, Frosty & Bright, Cosy & Warm and Birthday.

A great prize I'm sure you'll agree.



And there's more.......we're also offering a 2nd prize of a guest DT slot with

Charisma for 3 weeks, even more reason to join in this week!

Challenge #41 - It's So Distressing

Thursday 15 October 2009
Howdy y'all! It's me, KarenB, with my first ever hosted challenge here at Charisma Cardz! First off I want to thank all of you who joined us with Sally's yummy recipe challenge last week - your work was phenomenal!!!

Are you ready for this weeks challenge????

Your challenge is: It's So Distressing!

The reason for my challenge is simple, the holidays are approaching and they prove to be quite stressful for most. I want you to pull out your distressing tools - inks, scissors, whatever you want - and rip and tear and distress those projects to "destress" yourself!!

Now, onto the yummy prize details for this weeks challenge!!!

This week we are honored to be sponsored by Christine from
All That Scraps.

Photobucket

Here is a little something from Christine about her company:

We offer a little of everything for one stop shopping, including cardstock, pattern paper, many stamp companies and great shipping rates. Home of C.C. Designs Rubber Stamps which is my passion, I love to see my drawings come to life on someones card or project.

And............here are the prize details generously donated by All That Scraps:
