Challenge 33 - Earth, Wind and Fire
This week we chose a novel theme of Earth, Wind and Fire. This doesn't have to literally show the three, we want to see your interpretation of them. Earth is really anything nature, wind can be clouds or movement, fire can be the colours of fire or a flame etc. Your project however, MUST CONTAIN AN ELEMENT OF ALL THREE to be valid for the random draw.

Challenge 31 - Create A Scene
This week for our Create A Scene, we are pleased to welcome Mountain Ash Crafts as both our guest designer and also this weeks challenge sponsor. We regularly visit Mountain Ash Crafts in it's beautiful setting just outside Dudley, where the workshops and demonstrations are increasingly popular. It's a wonderful place to visit, you always receive a warm welcome with a smile and there are always staff on hand to answer any questions.
This weeks GDT spot was created by Jules (who also makes great coffee!)
Jules Recipe
The stamp used is the Inkylicious The Coppice stamp
PanPastel's used were
Ultra marine blue
Bright yellow green
Titanium white
Versamark watermark ink pad
Small die cut circle
8x8 Card stock
Sequin waste
Blue/green card from stash
Crafter's Companion Spray and Shine
Method:
Decide on the contours of your scene and apply the Pan Pastels working from dark in the foreground to lighter in the distance with blue to represent the sky.
Stamp the trees in groups – Make the distant trees a little lighter by blotting ink from the stamp onto scrap paper. Don’t be afraid to overstamp some of the trees, particularly in the background to give them greater depth.

Challenge 30 - Summer Fun
At last, we've had some summer weather in the last couple of weeks, and yes some rain as well, but that IS summer here in the UK. Thankfully the Olympics aren't being affected by the odd shower.
So, as it's summer, and summer is associated with fun, this weeks theme is Summer Fun. This theme is open to your interpretation, it's fun to see butterflies, birds and wild animals and flowers showing their best features. It can relate to holiday fun, garden fun etc. Show us what your ideas are.
This week, we are pleased to welcome a very talented guest designer Birgit Koopsen from the Netherlands.
Below are a few images of Birgits excellent work. To see more pictures and her fully descriptive recipe's, visit our new Special Features page where Birgits full contribution to this weeks GDT is featured. Featured are a Journal Page, a Canvas and a Card so there is plenty to inspire us all.
Our regular DT ladies have also been busy adding their unending talents to this weeks theme.
