Fortnightly Challenge No 47 - Halloween/Autumn

Hello everybody :)

Before I mention this times challenge - don't forget to enter our monthly give-away... we have another gorgeous prize for one lucky winner.  

See here for more details...

Welcome to this fortnight's challenge here on Forever Friends.
 
Our theme this time is

Halloween and/or Autumn

and we have two lovely sponsors for this challenge.

Our Randomly Selected Winner's prize is sponsored by the fabulous

Kenny K Downloads

who are providing our lucky winner with 5 digis of the winner's choice from the store.

A little bit about Kenny K Downloads

Digi and rubber stamps from KennyK are a fun and edgy way to add the perfect dose of attitude and style to all of your creations! 

The creator, the artist, the man: KennyK is a NYC-born professional illustrator who has brought his funky-but-slick, urban-influenced look to the cardmaking and papercrafts world. His signature style can be seen throughout his various collections of sexy pinup babes, sweet 'n sassy girls, cool rockin' dudes, kid’s stuff, retro characters and more at KennyKDownloads.com.

Our Forever Friends Favourite prize is sponsored by the adorable

Whoopsi Daisy Designs

who are giving our winner 4 sheets of digis of the winner's choice.

Now.... just take a look at the inspirational treat we have for you today - we were joined for this challenge by one of our Forever Friends Favourite Winners and some of Kenny K's designers & Whoopsi Daisy designers who provided us with some absolutely fabulous Guest Design work!
