Silly me...

I belong to the class of people who would loose their heads if they were not attached to their necks. I forgot to enable the linking the entries for the challenge. It is fixed now - look at the bottom of the post below.

Any more entries for the challenge?

There's still 8 days left, why don't you have a go?

Some clarifications - there's no need to use any of my stamps, or any stamp for that matter. It can be a card, scrapbook page or any other project, as long as it uses the colours in the challenge.

*** Since I really really want to give away prizes this month, comments now get a prize too: ***

Leave a comment on the challenge post (this one) with a suggestion for a new image and I'll do a draw for the Midori kit. If you post an entry for the challenge, you're on for 2 draws, the challenge one and the comments one.

Come back here on Thursday to check my new digi stamp.

April Guest Designer Sabrina

Sabrina's card apart from being gorgeous is an interactive one, that's what she said:

"I made a little paper doll you could dress.
There are tabs on her dresses, but then I also used Sailor two-way glue as repositionable glue, so that I could "hang" them in the wardrobe. And although originally I was going to just pop the little girl up on thick foam dots, I realised that she'd be easier to dress if you could remove her altogether, so I used a Basic Grey magnetic snap to attach her to the card. For the background I just used some fancy textured Bazzill and a little cloud of butterflies.
Kimono papers were downloaded from the Canon website, scaling them down."

THE CHALLENGE

At the last minute we decided to add a challenge too.
Vera has set the first challenge, a colour challenge:

"Use wheat/khaki, sky blue and red."  Inspired by this picture, found here:

As you can see, Rachel, Vera and Jackie's entries fit the challenge and Deirdre has made an extra project to inspire you even more:
