Rainbow Lady #148

Good morning to you all and welcome to our latest challenge over at



Thank you for joining us with 'Lilac Wine, you did not disapoint, you gave us beautiful designs to look at and comment on. That is the best part of being a DT, we get to visit all your blogs and find new people along the way.


This week we challenge you to think 'In The Springtime' and we have been given Digi Images from Chi Chi Memories

our Sponsor this week,to use in our designs.


My DT card is shown below


I took a plain Cream 5 x 5 card and added a lovely Lacey Square Die Cut in Copper.

The Oval Nestie has been cut using paper from Artylicious, my Digi Image has been coloured using various Promarkers.

I carefully cut out the inside of the basket to reveal more of the die cut.

A Pearl and a couple of Gems are attached to the centre of the flowers and gold peel offs add decoration to the basket.

I decided to make this an Easter Card (one more for my box) so added the Happy Easter and a couple of Eggs to complete the card.


We look forward to seeing your interpretation of this weeks challenge and leaving comments on your blogs.

CD SUNDAY CHALLENGE

Good morning to you all, hope you have been enjoying the lovely weather of the last few days. It certainly feels like spring here.


Thanks for joining in last weeks challenge, we enjoyed visiting your blogs and leaving comments.


So, over at CD SUNDAY this week we are asking you to think about

A SONG IN MY HEART


As usual our DT & GDT have beautiful designs to show you.

It is the second week for our Guest Designer Claire and she has another lovely creation to share with you


My DT card is shown below



I chose to go with a beautiful song from the Patience Strong CD1 from Joanna Sheen


It has been printed onto Pearlescent Card and then layered onto Purple Card from my stash.


The main card is also Pearlescent and I used my 'Hougie Board' to score a few lines both down and across for dimension.


Punched flowers complete with Brads and a few Gems add the finishing touch


I am not sure if you can read the song, so hear it is below:


If the heart is Singing, you cannot go far wrong, For you will discover, there's magic in a song, That scares away the demons, that throng around us all, Wanting us to stumble, and to see us fall, If the heart is singing, nothing can get through, Only that which strengthens, and what is best for you.


We hope you will join us again this week, just remember to use something from a CD in your design and say which it is you have used.


Next week we have something special happening on our blog, so watch this space, as they say!!
