THE CHALLENGE IS 

ANYTHING GOES

So let's get to the inspiration for today's new Card Making & Paper Craft Scrapbook challenge...

Betsy - Today's card features Gil Rabbit Growing Sunflowers. In honor of spring I've turned them into daisies! I composed my card in the computer using Winnie's Celebration Kit 1 Papers 2 for my background. I used an excess piece of the green stripe and die cut it with a grass border die. I colored up Gil using Copic markers. I used a side folding card base with a white scalloped panel, then the panel I popped up on foam. I adhered the sentiment to the top left. I embellished with a white gel pen, tiny iridescent butterflies, a heart button on Gil's overalls and tiny yellow flowers.

Copic colors used: Yg00, Y02, Y15, Y17, YG11, YG63, YG23, B000, B01, B93, B95, B97, Roo, R02, E33, E35, E37, B1, C3, C5, W0, W1, W3, W5

Christina P - Hi everyone. This week's theme was using turquoise and a circle so for my birthday card I used the Ruby birthday cake digital stamp and next to her I added a sentiment using the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Sentiment/Quotes Bundle. I coloured Ruby in using my alcohol markers then die cut the stamp into a circle. I then printed some of the beautiful papers from the Pretty Winnie Daisy papers. I cut some into circles to add in the background and used one of the papers as the back layer. I finished the card using some flowers and twine from my stash.

ENRICA - Hello everyone! This week the DT was asked to make an Easter card with a non-standard shape and a flower seemed perfect to me. I used the super cute Butterfly Chick Spring into Easter digital stamp, colred with Copic. Patterned papers are from the Bella Bear Morning Coffee and Gnome holding carrots gardening Digi Deals. I’m totally in love with this sweet chick, hope you like it too!

Tinne - Hi everyone! Easter is looking around the corner, so we are creating Easter cards! I created a flower shaped card out of craft cardstock. I cut out the base shape a second time out of white oxide ink cardstock, and a third time out of a green pattern paper from the Work & Play 10 collection – Paper Heaven 2. I cut out the middle circle from the white one, and inked it with Speckled Egg Distress Oxide ink. I splattered it with water and some of the ink. Once dry, I glued it on my base shape. I used the green scalloped circle to cut out 2 grass sections, and I cut of the scallops. I glued one section on the flower shape, glued the gnome from the Gnome Spring Lambs/Sheep precoloured image set behind the front part of the grass, put some foam tape behind it and also glued it on the base shape. I put foam tape behind the butterfly and glued it in place. I used a sentiment from the Lily Bug Ladybird Messages set, because we don’t send Easter cards here in Belgium. I put foam tape behind it and glued it into place. And now I have tot turn my flower shape into a card. I folded a piece of craft cardstock, creating a smal base card. I cut out a circle using a circle die from my stash, but I kept a piece of the fold. That way you get a base card shaped like a circle. I glued this behind my flower shape, and now you’ve got a flower shaped card! Have fun crafting!

Deborah - Hello all! Deborah here, and I am working on more Easter cards for my granddaughters. I just love this Cute Bunny Rabbit Sitting on Easter Egg digi stamp [https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/cute-bunny-rabbit-sitting-on-easter-egg-digital-stamp-digistamp-for-cards-cardmaking-crafting-and-stickers/] and I know my granddaughter will too. I decided to use a rounded, braided, non-traditional shape that opens on the side, and colored her with alcohol ink markers. This digi stamp is also available in a pre-colored version, if you prefer. I finished the card by adding a sentiment from the Springtime Smiles Sentiment Bundle [https://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/easter-greetings-quotes-and-sentiments-printable-clipart-digital-stamp-digistamp-for-cards-cardmaking-crafting-and-stickers/] and a few embellishments. Listed below are the Copic Alcohol Ink Marker colors that I used to color this digi stamp...

Maz - This week we followed a colour palette and used a circle. For my March Birthday card, I used Rebel Birthday Cake along with backing paper and a sentiment from the same collection. The presents were created using Sweet Birthday Stamp Set. The candles and balloons are from Birthday Celebrations Stamp Set. All details can be found on my blog.

CHRISTIN B - The design team was asked to make something for march birthday. The most days in march standing in the zodiac sign Pisces. Although my birthday is in February it’s also my zodiac sign. Therefore I wanted to make something with this beautiful pisces and combined it with the zodiac star sign circles. I printed it out in extra large to made a decoration for me with the tambour frame. I colored everything with alcohol markers, now some pencils are empty:).

Wendy - Hello everyone wishing you a wonderful week - today were making March Birthday cards so I decided to use the wonderful Pre-coloured Pisces image from the Zodiac Collection along with one of the sentiments. It's the perfect image as we had a colour palette to use too for this challenge and to include a circle! Did you know that March birthdays fall across two zodiac signs ? - Pisces and Aries. I printed out the image 3 times before fussy cutting out and decoupaging and then added lots of lovely sparkle to the design - you can never have too much sparkly don't you think?

Nat Martin - This time I could not resist using the cute Milkshake Drink Rebel digistamp, I love this one, she has so much attitude.  The background papers are from the Coffee Tea Cake Digital Paper kit - Hope you like It! ❤️
