Penny Black Saturday #76!

Woo hoo! It's a very special week this week on the Penny Black Saturday challenge blog! We're having a 'Winter Wonderland Countdown to Christmas Blog Hop'!! There are loads of gorgeous prizes to be won, all you have to do is make a card with a Winter Wonderland theme and play along with this puzzle -

Can you guess this well known Christmas Song
---O--- T-- --- N---- -----E--
a little clue - one of Santa's helpers


it has five words and we have given you another little clue by filling in some of the letters but to collect the rest of the letters you need to visit each member of the Design Team including our lovely Guest Designer for this month Debby, shuffle the letters around to solve the puzzle and then e-mail your answer to Kath - kathinwesthill@btinternet.com
Entries will close at midnight GMT on Friday 27th November

And these are the letters you'll be needing from me.....R & N - Good luck!

TO BE ELIGIBLE TO WIN A PRIZE...YOU NEED TO ENTER A CARD IN THE CHALLENGE

and all the lucky winners will be announced on Penny Black Saturday next Saturday

If that's not enough to get you into the Christmas spirit, I don't know what is!! Here's my candy prize! There's 3 sets of Christmas papers, buttons, gems, brads, snowflakes, poinsettias, ribbons, some stamped images (not pictured) and a little bag of festive choccies! -
