Now it is my (Amy :D) turn to pick the challenge and so I thought I would challenge myself as well and went for a colour challenge. I decided on orange as it is a colour I hardly ever use but I also thought it would fit for the season.


The brilliant sponsor for this challenge is WHIMSY STAMPS and they are kindly giving a $15 gift voucher to the winner!


The DT have done an amazing job to inspire you to get orange on your project so just check them out.......
