Now on to the DT inspiration projects ...

Anjie - This was a plain MDF tag that I started off by mixing some pearlescent violet Pan Pastel with some Gesso and painting the background. I then place the Heart Of Flowers mask over it and stenciled through it with a black Pan Pastel. I then stamped out the butterfly, message and flowers from the Postcard Stamp Set in versamark ink and rubbed over then with the Pan Pastels and glued then to the tag. I finished it off with some black ribbon.


Doreen - I have made a scene on this tag, I first made my background by sponging on my PanPastels while masking off the moon onto a Manilla Tag.I then sponged on my stencils the bird  and leaves.
and stamped the trees and Quote using Black Versafine ink






 Tracy ~ Hi everyone, I have an easy quote in a frame for you today using a PCB Stencil, 2 Pan Pastels along with Matt Gel on calico.

It`s a really quick project that brightens up a shelf with inspiring reminders for you to see dotted around your home. You can find me here



Yvonne - This card was made by using three layers of stencils.  More info on my blog, it would be fabulous if you could pop in to take a peep.


Lou: I have used the same colour palate,stencil and pan pastels (as last weeks card), to create my card. I have added some Washi tape as an additional embellishment, to change the look. Full details are on my blog.






Terry: I had fun altering a box, worked with Light Modelling Paste, 2 stencils from Dutch Doobadoo, lots of Pearlescent Pans, The hearts were made with the "old" empty cardboard Hearts from Dutch Doobadoo with Light Modelling Paste and Iridescent Paste on top. Roses and last but not least a sentiment were placed on top of the box.

A big thank you to everyone who entered our last challenge, we'll be back to announce the lucky winner and Top 3 next week!!

Our talented DT girlies have stencilled up a storm to inspire you this week


Anjie - I have used the Spirograph Mask for the background by placing it over some white linen card and putting some Light Modelling Paste through it. I have then coloured over it with a black and pearlescent violet Pan Pastels. I have then used the Postcard Stamp Set to stamp out the postcard and sentiment in black ink. I then stamped the butterflies in Versamark ink and rubbed over them with the pearlescent violet Pan Pastel. Finally I added a black bow and some pearls.






Doreen- I first made a background for my stencils by sponging over my Bright Yellow Green PanPastel onto a Manilla tag.

I have used a few stencils over the top laying them over each other and using different colours of PanPastels . I then stamped the butterflies and  added the dream word and ribbon.xxx





Yvonne - For this card I've used Grunge Paste, Panpastels and embossing powder.  All info about how I did this over on my blog.





Claire C I've used Maimeri Glassy Gel to and the gorgeous Dutch Doobadoo Chicken Wire stencil to create a resist technique for my card, all the details are on my blog






Terry I had fun working on a canvas. This time I choose the  Purple, Pink and White Acrylic Paints for the background. On top of the first layer I played with the White Coarse Pearlescent PanPastel. I could not resist to play with 2 different stencils from Dutch Doobadoo. First one was the Diamond and the second stencil was the Roses. The roses and diamond came alive with the Light Modelling Paste. When the layers were dry I stamped a heart with the sentiment Love in it on the canvas. The heart was worked on with Glossy Accents and Crackle Accents. Last but not least I placed a butterfly to finish my project.


The products I have worked with are:




Lou: I have used quite a soft colour palate this week using white gesso, a Dutch Doobadoo stencil and my pan pastels. The centre stampbord panel has also been embossed and coloured with pan pastels. Full details and more photos can be found on my blog.
