Gnome and hedgehog buddies

Hello,

Welcome to another Challenge over at the Heart's Quest Fantasy Challenge Blog.  As always it starts the first Saturday of the month, and as usual it lasts for about a month. I do hope that you'll join us. 

The theme of the Challenge, as always, is Fantasy, however as long as it's Fantasy pretty much anything goes. If you're not sure what we mean by that just check out the guidance in the Challenge Rules, and in the side bar on the Challenge blog. With the rename and relaunch of the Challenge Blog recently there are a few changes in what we mean by Fantasy, so it might be worth checking it out.

We also have a monthly optional theme, this month it's Gnomes, so I've chosen a Polkadoodles gnome image to use.

Hello, 

It's time for a new Pearly Sparkles challenge which, as always, starts on the 1st of the month, over at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog. Our theme this month is For a Man or Boy. I decided to make a birthday for my nephew-in-law, who is into his music, and rather apt as we'd bought him vinyl LPs for his birthday. Very "old school"!

I do hope you'll join us over at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog this month and share your makes with us.
