Hi Tammy. It's a weekly challenge. They've just totally refurbished their whole site, challenge. Just go to the link on right side of my blog under "challenges". The info is all there. The link is also in this post.
Studio Friday is another good challenge and there is also artwords. They are all weekly challenges with a theme introduced for each week. There was one called "Try me Tuesdays". The moderator hadn't been able to update for a time. I think you can find a link at Suzie Qs blog or Nance B.
Thanks for stopping by.
Wendy
thanks for that great question Tammy and thanks Wendy for your leads...

Thanks for joining in aem, Wendy!! I hope your travels are smooth and as stress free as possible!
Cool idea! Try not to get puter withdrawals and have safe travel!
Hey sweetheart :) Loving your work, as always, and wishing you well. Hope all goes well with the travel/meetings and that you have time to play over the weekend.
Thanks for all the Angels, they have done me proud this week, eventually! May they surround you & your family.
Love you so. Take Care.
Big Hugs, Suze xXx
