New Challenge over at Lavinia Stamps and as promised a Clock GIVEAWAY!

Happy 1st November Friday folks.
Did you have a scary Halloween and many
Trick or Treaters?
We put our Halloween decorations up last Sunday,
some bunting, pumpkin decorations and Halloween tea light holders.
We also have a lovely pumpkin tea light holder which we got when we were in Disney for Halloween celebrations
a few years ago now.
Next it will be the Christmas decorations!
As some of you know I'm now part of the
Lavinia Stamps DT which I'm absolutely thrilled about, exciting times!
Today is the launch of their new challenge
Bright Hot Colours and I made my samples during the past month which have been kept under wraps until now.
I'm excited to share these with you now and hope you will join us in the challenge at
Lavinia Stamps Challenge Blog
and take at look at what the rest of the DT have made to inspire you, amazing work and lovely blogs from them all too.
It was only appropriate that as the first CD clocks I made used Lavinia stamps that I made a clock for this exciting new chapter!
I used the Zen Tree and one of the three Zen Houses and the design was created using the Gelli plate technique with ink pads, brayering and stamping.
I will try to blog this clock in step by step stages this month but please bare with me it's very hectic at the moment.
For the next make I've used the large Zen Mushroom House, alcohol inks and laminating technique which we're doing at my workshop on the10th Nov.
This is such a simple arty thing to do and I absolutely love it!
and lastly I used the beautiful Zen Butterfly with some distress stain ink splats, how cool is that!
I did have a few splats around the kitchen when I'd finished as hubby pointed out!
So I hope that all the DT's hard work will inspire you to have a go and you are in with a chance of winning a £40 Voucher for Lavinia Stamps!
Now I promised a Clock Giveaway and here it is
All you need to do to have a chance of winning this very clock is to leave a comment on this post any time during November and subscribe to or follow my blog, simples!
Then at the end of the month I will randomly select a winner!
I've added the Subscribe to buttons at the top right hand side of my blog under the heading and labels.

That's it, as always thank you for visiting and good luck with the GIVEAWAY!
