June - Anything Goes


Welcome to our June challenge, it's a bit of a special one as this month as we are seven years old so have two special prizes to be won and a theme that is nice and easy...................

********Anything Goes********

Normally we put all the entries into the draw but this month we are going to ask you to let us know which prize you prefer, this is because the Penny Black stamps are all wood mounted and we know that presents storage problems for some people. So we are asking all entrants this month to leave us a comment to tell us if they prefer the stamps or the die cutting machine...........we will only enter the people who have commented into the draw as we would not want to send these lovely stamps to someone who would not use them.

Here are the prizes:



Penny Black invite you to explore their creative world and see for yourself why their rubber stamps, stickers, beautiful papers for scrapbooking, cardmaking and stamp crafting are everyone’s favourites. Their products are designed to integrate style and colour for creating the best handicraft projects ever. If you would like to be one of the first to hear about new products from Penny Black please click here to join the free club, plus their Facebook is full of activity and news.


Tattered Lace is home to a range of beautifully delicate and detailed craft products, including the successful Tattered Lace Dies and Embossing Folders, designed by Stephanie Weightman.

Finally a note about our challenge rules: You can use any make of stamp and enter up to three times, but we must see hand stamping as the focal element of your artwork, it can be a stamped image/s, large sentiment or quote....... the one exception are Penny Black Stickeroos. But no digi images. Please note: If we do not comment on your entry it will be because it does not follow the theme, qualify under our rules, or because we are asked to sign in or provide additional data to comment on third party hosts such as Instagram, Facebook, Flickr, Slipcoast. We do not want to be rude but we do want to be fair to those who do follow the rules

Claudia is our first Guest Designer this month and has made two very different cards using the same stamp proving how versatile it is.................

Using Penny Black Luminous 40-279 and Script 40-470


My team mate Wendy from Allsorts is our second Guest Designer this month and has made this sweet card to share with us.................


And here is the inspiration from the Design Team.................

Happy happy 7th anniversary. Wow. I love entering your challenges and if I should be one of the lucky winners I would love those stamps. I wouldn't say no to the die cut machine either LOL, but the stamps would be my first pick, cos I love Penny Black. Thanks for all your hard work and inspiration keeping this challenge running for so many years. I'll be back soon with a project or two. Hugz

Monika Gulyas said...

Fabulous cards from the DT!!! If you ask me, I would like to choose the wood mounted stamps because I transformed all my Penny Black stamps into cling mount stamps. With this alteration I can use them with a stamping platform (MISTI).

Jeni Mc said...

As I have said on my blog . I would like to be lucky enough to win the beautiful wood mounted stamps as they are all ones I would love to use . Thank you to the team for offering them this time and for their monthly inspiration .

Wow 7 year anniversary, congratulations and may there be many many more. I have totally enjoyed entering in your challenges along the last couple of years, always such wonderful inspiration. If I should win I would totally enjoy a stamp or two. Thank you.

Karenladd said...

Happy 7 year anniversary to you!! I always love your challenges, especially when it's an easy one like this. My choice, if I won, would be the wooden stamps. Although I usually buy clear stamps these days, to save space, I still have a love for the wood mounted ones that I started with...especially when they are as cute as these.

Dora said...

Beautiful creations from the team. Congratulations with your 7th year of blog. Have fun in the years that follow.
What a beautiful gift, wow, If I may choose, than I go for the stamps. But if it is expencive to send, I am happy with one stamp too.
Good luck!!
