New and a sad farewell @ Totally Gorjuss

It is saturday again and time for another challenge over at Totally Gorjuss  and I am a bit sad today. I am now participating in my last challenge as a DT member with  this lovely team. I've been on this team since april 2011, that is a pretty long time too and I've loved every minute of it. Every good thing has to come to an end though and I think this will give me the pleasure in participating in our lovely challenges myself in the future. As you probably have seen there is a dt call going on at our lovely challenge and if you do fancy a go send Net an email at totallygorjuss@gmail.com along with some details about yourself and a link to your blog. 

We have a lovely new challenge for you this saturday and it will be the last one for 2012. Before I tell you about that I want to thank those of you that played along with our "Keep it simple" challenge last week. If you did play along and am wondering whether you are our winner you simply need to check into our challenge blog. 

Now we have a new and lovely challenge for you over at Totally Gorjuss this week. The theme is simply: "New". You can interpret that in many ways like new baby, new year, new crafting stuff, new home. It is just your imagination that is going to stop you.
