W for Winter White (no colours at all!)

Good morning everyone, and thank you to all those who took part in our Vintage challenge, we had lots of fabulous entries from you all!

Before we go on to our next challenge, which will run for 3 weeks to take us over into the New Year, I would like on behalf of myself and the Design Team to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Our new theme for you, for 3 weeks, is

W for Winter White - (This means use only white and NO OTHER COLOURS please!)

For this challenge we would like to see ONLY WHITE on your work please, no coloured images at all!  Sorry if this is a little strict (as I was told I was being!) - but I thought it would be nice to see some all white work for this particular challenge.  It is do-able as you will see from the fabulous work the team has come up with!   Our next challenge will be on 4th January.

Don't forget our challenges are not just for cards, anything goes!

Even though we are not a prize or award giving blog,  please adhere to the theme of the challenge.

Our only rule is no back linking to previous work posted on your blog.  Just to clarify, this means anything before each new challenge date.
