New challenges and other happenings!
The christmas/holiday season means yummy recipes!! What better way to preserve those memories and share them than designing a LO?! For this sketch challenge, one of PBP’s very own talented designers Faer Oak has TWO sketches for you to choose from. One is sized at 4×6″ and one is sized at 8×11″. Both come with a FREE notepaper so you can type up your recipe! Both are also printable sizes so you can print them on your home printer and share them with friends and family.
If you haven’t already used one of Faer Oak’s amazing (and famous ;)) sketches, do yourself a favour and try these one’s now while they are still available!
{Defining Me} Project - Topic Four
The aim of this project is to create a book celebrating yourself, of who you are, what you believe, what you love, who you are deep down, the inner YOU.
This round we want to hear more about you and your life so the topic is My Life In A Nutshell which is a great way for people who don’t know you to see a little more of who you are, and for your loved ones a chance to see what you felt about growing up. A brief run down of your life, where you grew up, places you have lived, schools you went to, fave night spots, from birth to now give us a brief look at how you came to be who you are now.
We have a fun new photography challenge for you! Usually our photography challenges give you a little something to think about and maybe even a new technique to try, but with christmas looming, who has the time?! So, until next year, the photography challenges are going to be kept nice and simple and fun!

n. the characteristic appearance of a city.
This photography challenge is to take a photo of the christmas decorations in your city/town. Let’s see what the world looks like where you live as it gears up for christmas. Here is an example (this image sourced from www.trekearth.com/members/syair/photos/):
Don’t forget our colour and quote challenges are still going on until 30th November where you can snag yourself a few little freebies to help you along the way. These will be the last colour and quote challenges for some time, with new stuff starting up next year, and something a little different for December.

Magickle Holiday multi-kit
The Pickleberrypop Designers have been busy creating an amazing new multi-kit for you, and this time, it’s for a great cause and just in time for Christmas! Make a difference this Magickle Holiday season! 100% of the net proceeds from this multi-kit will be donated to the Chibobo Orphanage in Zambia - at $8.00AUD for this entire kit, it’s a bargain!
“Chibobo is a very rural area, with no electricity nor water supply. The long-term goal of the scheme is to improve the lives of the approximately 100 orphans identified within a 6km radius of the HMP Chibobo Centre through the provision of facilities and procedures involving the vital care of these orphans (e.g. feeding, clothing, educating).”
This kit has 31 12×12 papers, over 200 elements, and two sets of Alphas! Included are two sets of brushes, a collection of buttons, brads and bling, tags, stitches, eyelets, glittery elements, torn elements, a bunch of ribbons and ric-racs, lots of fun word art pieces, stickers and rub-ons, and a layered sketch template!!
This multi-kit was created by our very own Pickleheads: Annette Farrelly, Chris Turnbull, Deb F, Faer Oak designs, Kate F, Little Possum Designs, and Poppy Monkey Designs.
Please help us to support this worthy cause!
