So now onto our challenge ... It is Frances here again with another challenge for you all. Most of you probably know that I live in Australia! Well it’s a special day for all Aussies today as it is Australia Day! It is on this day in 1788 that the First Fleet arrived at Sydney Cove. This day is special to us, just like the 4th of July is special to those of you who live in the USA!

Anyway I couldn't let this day go past without having our challenge Aussie related in some way today. I will give you a few options … use the colors green and gold on your card; create a beach scene (we love our beaches); use Australian Animals; Tongs (you wear on your feet btw) or anything else that you think would relate to Australia!.

I can't wait to see all your creations :)

If you decide to play along with us, all you have to do is create a card/project and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword CCEE1204. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Inlinkz so that everyone else can see it too.

Hi everyone,

Before I get onto our challenge for day, I wanted to fill you all in on some changes that are happening over here on the CCEE Stampers blog. It's a new year and sometimes that means changes, we didn't announce them last week as we hadn't got everything sorted out but we are starting to now.

First up Tosh Leyendekker who is the one who got us all together in the first place about 5 years ago is taking a break. She isn't leaving completely (we wouldn't let her ;) .... she will remain as a special guest designer and participate every so often.

The other news we have is that we are expanding, we have decided to increase the number of Design Team members from 6 members to 12. This will happen over the next month as some of our new members need to get organised.

Today we would like to introduce the first of our new Design Team members ...

Anne Harmon

Vicky Gould

So now are you ready for another challenge??? I (Frances Byrne) am back with another one just for you!

This is the week we celebrate Columbus discovering America. Make a card with a ship, ocean, Indians or anything that relates to this day.

Hi all,

It's Frances again with my last challenge for the month.

A couple of months ago I discovered that a few of our CCEE Stamper gals had cricut or electronic die cutting machines and they weren't getting used. So this week's challenge is for them!

This week we are getting out our electronic cutters eg cricut etc. to use to create our cards. Those who haven't used them in a while might have to dust them off, but no excuses!!!!!

For those of you who don't have an electronic cutter (cricut etc) you can use any die cut using a cuttlebug, bigshot etc ... but if you have a cricut or other electronic cutter you must use it!!!

We'd love to have you play along also. All you have to do is create a card using the above challenge, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword CCEE1126. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see your card too.

Here's what the CCEE Stampers came up with this week!

Wow! This month is flying by!! I can hardly believe it's the third week of February. Well, continuing with our use of different tools this month, this week you are to use scoring. If you don't have a Scor-Pal, or Scor-Buddy, you can use a foam mat, ruler and stylus to make your lines along the card stock. Also, some cutters have grooves for the blades, and these make good guidelines.

If you would like to play along all you have to do is create a card using the above challenge, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword CCEE1107. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see your card too.

Hi everyone!!

Tosh here, and I have some new challenges for you for the month of February.

This month, it's all about the "Tools". When you hear the word "tools", most people think men and their cars, or the wood shop, etc. But not in the crafting world. When it comes to stamping, I'm all about tools. What's new, and what's my tried and true!! Well, for this first week, you need to include a punched piece somewhere on your card. Whether it be a border, corner, flower, circle, whatever shape, but it must be punched (not a diecut). I love my dies, but I also have a huge addiction to punches. I won't even begin to count my stash, and even if I did, I would never admit the number. :o)

We'd love to see how you use punches too, so if you would like to play along all you have to do is create a card using the above challenge, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword CCEE1105. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see your card too.

Hi everyone,

It's time for another challenge! This week Let's Go Wild! We are creating wild cards ... as in shape. These used to be popular some years back and I (Frances) have been revisiting this style of card recently on my blog.

If you aren't sure what a wild card is .... basically it is an odd shape. Instead of having parallel sides you will have sides that are on an angle. If you can't do wild ... do any shape you want.

If you would like to play along all you have to do is create a card using the above challenge, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword CCEE1102. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see your card too.

Charlene here. This week I've challenged the CCEE team to make a card/project using the holiday song "Do You Hear What I Hear?" as their inspiration. Here are the lyrics in case you'd like to play along with us:

Said the night wind to the little lamb

"Do you see what I see?
Way up in the sky, little lamb

Do you see what I see?

A star, a star, dancing in the night

With a tail as big as a kite

With a tail as big as a kite."

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy

"Do you hear what I hear?

Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy

Do you hear what I hear?

A song, a song high above the trees

With a voice as big as the the sea

With a voice as big as the the sea."

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king

"Do you know what I know?

In your palace warm, mighty king

Do you know what I know?

A Child, a Child shivers in the cold

Let us bring him silver and gold

Let us bring him silver and gold."

Said the king to the people everywhere

"Listen to what I say

Pray for peace, people, everywhere

Listen to what I say

The Child, the Child sleeping in the night

He will bring us goodness and light

He will bring us goodness and light."
