CFG - The Blog

2014 
A new year and exciting swaps & Challenges.

Welcome, and Happy New Year.

2013 was a mixed year for the godmothers, I wanted to close it all down, I have health issues, but with gentle encouragement from Naomi Dawn Adams I have kept at it and now the group is going from strength to strength, we have some amazing people on admin, one a talented gentleman from Australia, has re-inspired me to come out of my comfort zone and try some new things.

We have myself Dawn Omar, lovely and bright Naomi Dawn Adams, the talented Deborah Hemsworth, a scrapbook goddess Heather Bee, Helena Rodger Ashworth is keeping this Blog running, new comers but no less talented Joy Ferguson and Kim Williamson.  And our very own godfather Mr Andrew Roberts, Andrews in Australia and is an awesome crafter

A lot of us  here are in other craft groups but I am honored to have them working with the groups to move us into the upper echelons of craft groups.

Each of us are working in area's we enjoy and we are trying to bring you some great SWAPS & CHALLENGES in 2014.

Starting Friday 3rd January is a weekend Swap across all groups (see below for links)

WEEKEND PRIZE CHALLENGE 

This is new for 2014
HOW IT WORKS: This will run for 6 months, and will have points given as follows:

Everyone taking Part 1 Point (each weekend)
Third 3 points
Second 5 points
First 7 points.

The Challenge is split into 3 challenges as I know a lot of you like different things so it will be: A scrapbook Layout or something to make or Alter or a Card. You need only choose one thing to make, or do.(however if you enter more than one challenge piece 1 point will be added to your running score.)

You do not have to take part every weekend, and at the end of the 6 months the person with the highest points will win a CASH PRIZE.

Every Friday at 6pm we create event for the weekend challenge. Every one taking part
needs to post their item by Sunday 7pm.

Everyone can take part even admin.
