Hello all, and welcome to the 1st challenge at This Thursday, its all about………

Now we mused for a while about what our 1st challenge should be, and as we are a fresh, new challenge blog, and the basic idea behind the challenges is to find fresh inspiration, products or techniques and look at different art and craft areas for fresh ideas, so we decided that our 1st challenge should be simply

FRESH. wether you use the word, the definition, fresh colours, fresh products, or fresh techniques. However the word Fresh inspires you, and whatever it inspires you to create we want to see it.

Up for grabs is this great set of three colorbox queues  Rich Rustics pigment ink, Chocolate and blueberries Chalk ink and Rain forest pigment ink. A great prize provided by Craft 4 Creations . Kim also

provided the design team with a set of the Rain forest pigment inks each

A little about Craft 4 Creation from Kim

Craft4creation is a family run business (Steve & Kim) catering for card makers and scrapbookers alike. We have been established since 2004, which started as a bit of a hobby due to my passion for crafts. It rapidly took off and now we have our own Website www.craft4creation.co.uk. Knowing the importance of quality products and the correct tools, we only sell items that we would be happy to use ourselves. We try to be competitive with our pricing which reflects the quality of the products. As crafters, we know when you make a purchase you need your item NOW! We pride ourselves with our fast reliable service, aiming to despatch within 24 hours of payment, this way you can start crafting as quickly as possible.

We would also like to thank our 1st Guest designer Rosie who’s amazingly artistic work can be seen here  http://alteredartandstuff.wordpress.com/.  Well known amoungst the challenge fraternity, Rosie is a great friend and is always full of helpful advice. We are so pleased that she is our 1st designer
