Hi today is not only the launch of our new challenge but also a Blog Hop.

Our challenge theme for January which will run for the the whole month as usual is:

A Winters Tale

We would like you to take inspiration from Queens 1995 hit song title or if you prefer Shakespeare's slant on things, as always how you interpret it is completely your choice. All we ask is that you have fun and of course remember the rules and that you can combine your entry with up to five other challenges.

Here is my DT card showing my interpretation of this months challenge theme

For my card I have used an Elusive Images dp the image is a fir tree stamp which I bought a few years ago, I stamped it several times with Momento London Fog ink, I then used the circle scalloped Nestie to make a frame which I embossed with the snow effect folder, I added some blue gems and silver holographic punched butterflies.

I hope you have enjoyed viewing my card and my letter that you need to collect is

T

Your next stop is CLARE 

As well as a terrific prize for guessing the correct word in the above grid, each DT member also has a prize to give away to one lucky person chosen at random who leaves a comment.

I will be using the random widget to choose a name from the comments left on my blog and that lucky person will win this prize 

There are so many wonderful prizes up for grabs and you have until the 10th January to collect all the letters and work out the word in the grid.
