# 16 - Buttons and Bows

Welcome back to the 

'Fantasy Stampers Challenge'.

Just a reminder if you are new to our challenge - 

your project doesn't have to be 

of a 'Fantasy' nature.

First of all, a big 'Thank You' to those of you who played along with us last time for our 'Animal Magic' challenge - we had some very cute entries. Please don't forget to pop back tomorrow to check out our 'Winner's Post'.

On a sadder note we said goodbye to one of our design team members this month - Sandra has decided to step down to concentrate on her own craft business, so on behalf of the team and myself, I would just like to wish her every success for the future. I will be looking for an additional DT member to join us soon, so watch this space (if anyone is interested, you know where to find me).

Now for news on our Guest Designers - I have crafters lined up for August, September and October for our 'Midway Motivation' posts which will appear on the alternate Saturdays to the challenge posts - but we are still on the lookout for more! There will be an opportunity for someone to join us every month as a Guest Designer and this will require you to make two projects on two different themes - this would provide the opportunity to experience being on a design team, without all the extra commitment.  If you are interested in being a 'Guest Designer' please add GDT after your entry below.

oooOooo

So, here we go with Challenge No.16 - our theme for the next two weeks is ...

Now if you are anything like me, this one should be easy - I am embellishment mad and do not need any excuses to add then to my projects. So, why not check out that stash and come join us this time.

BUT please remember, we are a stamping challenge so your project MUST include stamping and please state clearly which stamp/stamps you used in your blog post (no digital images please). 

Here's what the Design Team made for your inspiration ...
