Jane – For my ‘Back to School’ card I have used this gorgeous girl from the JANUARY COLLECTION, and she is KNOWLEDGE IS EVERYTHING. The background is one of the stunning papers from WINNIE IN WONDERLAND and the sentiment is from WINNIE FRUIT PUNCH.

Renske - Hello, everyone! This time we as a design team were asked to create an interactive card. I love interactive cards, and the "Sky is the Limit" digital stamp is perfect for a slider card. I made a stencil for the moon myself, you punch a circle from acetate and this is perfect for creating a moon, for example. I used my distress inks and oxides for the background. I coloured the stamp with alcohol markers. In the sentiment set Panda Noodles sentiments, I found the perfect text: You are magical. I hope I have been able to inspire you again. Happy Crafting.

Julie Barnes - Here is a card I have made using one stamp set called Great Day Florals PD7148. Such a lovely set and so versatile. The aim was not to use any pinks - that is hard! I started by ink blending a 6 x 6 card base and stamped several of the flowers and elements onto the card and shaded some. I stamped, coloured and fussy cut the larger flower head and toadstool and added to the front of the card to give it some depth. I then used papers fromVintage Candy paper pack PD8004 for the inside of the card, decorated the insert and envelope to math. I used my Faber Castell pencils for this make using the following colours:

• Cobalt Turquoise • Light Cobalt Turquoise • Emerald Green • Light Green • Light Cadmium Yellow • Light Yellow • Orange Glaze • Cadmium Orange

Irre - Hello everyone. Sharing today a birthday card, I used a digital stamp called Miss you from the Winnie Sugar sprinkles Spring collection. I colored the stamp with Copics alcohol markers and then cut the stamp out. For the background, I colored in a white paper with Distress ink through a stencil. Then, I stamped the paper with different stamps. Some with black ink and some with purple ink. I attached the colored stamp to the paper with foam pillows. I also added a sentiment from the stamp set Just hangin’ Little Dude. Finally, I attached it all to a white card base. Instagram: @scrapbyirre / Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_BjwL9Z8gt1i_E1WmKmrWg

JANELLE - Hello crafty friends! Here’s a sweet mousy tag using Birthday Mouse to wish a happy birthday. 💛🐭🥳🧀🩵For more inspiration check out my IG page @janelle.paper.sparkles

Copic Markers I used:

Mouse: C00, 0, 1, 3

Balloon: B10, 11, 13

Cheese: Y00, Y02, Y04

Ears/tail: R000, 01, 11

Crown: B37, 39

Jane – So I completely ignored the colour scheme the team had this week but at least I got the theme right. This is WANDA SHOPPING and I have placed her on a layered background using the FUNKY VORTEX GRID stencil, FUNKY BORDERS stamp set and FUNKY ALPHABET stamp set (all very ‘funky’). The sentiment is from the WANDA MESSAGES & QUOTES.

Did you know?

We are now shipping to the EU again! Yay!

OK, over to the challenge - let's see what the team have created for you today! More great projects from the team this month! 

RACHAEL - I've been working with the gorgeous new Botanical Bliss collection and this card was very simple to make but I think very effective, I love using inks and vellum together. The stamp from the collection is called Daisy Dragonfly and also has co-ordinating outline dies and layering stencils too!

Irre - Hello everyone. Today I want to share a new canvas with you. I created this for Polkadoodles and used a digital stamp for that. The one I used is from the Darling buds collection, and this one is names Primrose flower girl. I colored the stamp with Copics and cut out the stamp. I laid the stamp aside while I was working with the canvas. For the canvas, I added modeling paste through a stencil and then painted the canvas with gesso. Then, I started to decorate one of the corners. I decorated it with many different elements. After that, I painted all the decorations with white gesso. Next, colored the canvas with watercolors. Now, it was time to add the stamp to the canvas. I then, dry painted the decorations with white gesso to enhance the textures. I also added some splatters. Finally, I decorated it with some rhinestones. My Instagram: @scrapbyirre

Jane – Isn’t this image stunning?! She is called MERMAID PRINCESS SITTING ON A ROCK and she comes from the CORAL MERMAID COLLECTION. I coloured her with Copics and added a bubbly background using the HEAVENLY CIRCLES stencil.

Irre - I used this cute Ula digistamp, I love how moody she is! I created this tag with lots of texture.

Maz - For today's 'Flowers' theme, and not to use pink, I created a collection of floral projects using the NEW Botanical Bliss Collection using green and purple. For my large gate-fold card with belly-band and the tag, I used Radiant Roses. The stepper card was created using Hydrangea Ribbon All coloured using Distress Oxides and Zig Clean Color pens. More details can be found on my blog

Wendy - Hello everyone Happy Digi Choosday! Have you been taking part in the MerMay events across social media - there's just a few more days to go so still time to join in - why not have a look at the Coral Mermaid Collection. For my project today I've created a 5" x 7" picture using one of the papers from the collection and the gorgeous Coral Mermaid on Rocks, coloured with Promarkers. I've added lots of lovely sparkle to her tail which I wish you could see as its magical. Have a fabulous day. Love and crafty hugs Wendy x
