Well done ladies, your projects were stunning. Don't forget to grab your top 3 badges for your blogs!

Now lets see what the DT have been busy with this week ...

Yvonne - For my inspiration this week I've used an MDF Heart.  Firstly I added texture paste through a stencil and when dry I covered it with yellow Panpastel and silver gilding wax.  I then added the flowers and humming bird which I black embossed onto white card and coloured with Panpastel and added black Distress Glitter to the centre.  It would be lovely if you could pop over to my blog for a peep.

Claire C I'm loving altering MDF hearts and went pink pink pink with this one lol. I began with a coat of Maimeri White Gesso and once that was dry added some colour with Magenta and Magenta Tint PanPastels. I added a little deeper pink through the gorgeous Peacock stencil - perfect for swirls around the edges of your project. I added some texture with Maimeri Light Modelling Paste using a piping bag and dusted with Magenta Tint PanPastel and glamour dust . The image was coloured with PanPastels and detail added with Graph'It markers

Terry, I had more fun with a small canvas and played with lots of Pink Pastels on the background, used a Dutch Doobadoo Stencil to create some texture and worked on it with Light Modelling Paste, placed some lace and at the bottom lots of pearls, a rose and some flowers. In the middle I put a butterfly and worked on it with PanPastel, crackle and topped it with Iridescent paste. Last but not least a sentiment
