Prize - choice of

1. choose any 2 digi's (value $5)

Theme: Happy Birthday

To start with I created a frame of cupcakes to go around my image using the SVG function in CraftArtist and the Scan'n'Cut to cut the file. I then added an offset to mat the cupcakes using Create and Craft glitter card. The background papers are from a CWVC paper pad. The image and cupcakes were coloured using Spectrum noir pens. The image is It's my birthday. The sentiment is one from the scan'n'cut on board library.

Hop over to CWWCC and show us your 'Happy Birthday' projects.  It can be any form of project and as long as you follow the rules you will be in with a chance of winning the prize.

Dezinaworld Spot Prize Challenge goes Monthly!!

Hi everyone, here is another entry to Dezinaworld's Spot Prize Challenge.  June has changed this challenge to every month so you have plenty of time to enter.  You don't have to use on of Dezinaworld's images but if you do it makes June really happy and being the generous person she is you will find she gives away a lot of freebies for you to use if you wish.  You don't have to use digital either it's just at the moment it is easier for me to use my computer than get all my equipment out (ohh err) to craft with paper & pen.  Anyhoo the theme for June is Green & Purple.  I have used the background and image from collage sheets from Dezinaworld and the flourishes, butterfly, flowers etc. are from the Serif CraftArtist CD.  I really love playing with this program and learn something new everytime (that's when I can find out where the pallets and things have disappeared to, naughty wandering fingers pressing things they shouldn't).

I hope everyone had a great weekend and didn't get too wet.  We managed to miss the showers and only got the sunshine.
