At Passion For Promarkers this week there is a card recipe to follow : 3 shapes (not including the card base), 2 patterned papers and 1 ribbon.  You can use any colours you like for this one. This was not as easy as I first thought and managed to get to the end of my first creation before I realised I had used 3 different papers – doh!  My second attempt I think is ok!  The shapes are circle, rectangle and whatever those skew-wiffy shapes are called on the letter stickers!!  Before anyone points it out – I know I have stuck the image on at a funny angle!  Bronte looks like he’s walking downhill, lol.  The papers are all Doodlebug and so are the letter stickers.

The image is a freebie by Mo’s Digital Pencil and is available HERE on her PCP site (you will just need to join to get your hands on it and several others!).  Mo’s Challenge Blog launches at 10am GMT so don’t forget to pop on over to check it out.  You could nab this image as a taster and enter our first challenge with it!! 

Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with this week and don’t forget to go and visit the other DT blogs to see their creations.  We have some fabby GDT’s for this month too.

We have a lovely, simple challenge for you this week at Cupcake Crafts which is to make a Thank You card.  We are  being sponsored by Simon Says Stamp who are giving away a $20 voucher to one lucky winner.  No excuse to take part then!!

I have used a gorgeous image from Pink Petticoat (from In My Garden) – love the simplicity of this – great for a quick card in a hurry) and coloured it with ProMarkers.  The papers are from the DCWV Nana’s Nursery stack and the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.  Although you can’t tell, the ribbon is a beautiful metallic one and is really shiny.  Looks velvety in this photo!

Have a great day,

I can’t quite believe it but I have been picked for the new Mo’s Digital Pencil Challenge Blog Design Team!!! I am pretty new to Mo’s designs but have become so entranced by them in the last couple of weeks. When I saw the DT call I couldn’t resist the opportunity and now I’ve made it I’m just about speechless! I can’t wait to see what she has in store for us and am so looking forward to getting to work with more of her stunning images – ooh, I’m on top of the world! If you haven’t come across Mo’s work yet then go and have a look here – have your Paypal password handy though!!!

Right off to make myself a nice celebratory cup of tea and then to bed (if I can get to sleep now that is!!).

Hugs,
