The chipboard frame and dressmaker dummy are from my stash.

Helen - So the DT are making anything but a square card. Now I know our Nikki has some fabby templates so I went to Lavender Tea and hey presto there was a beautiful flowerpot and I had to do some colouring to so what better that a Darling Buds this little beauty is crocus.

Michelle  I have use a design sheet from the Winston Deluxe Full download  this was so quick and easy to make something up for a card or a tag like mine these design sheets are fantastic for lots of things you can also just use them for embellishments.

Claire C I've used one of the design sheets from Winnie in Wonderland, to make a little charm and matching tag. I love Winnie and it's so quick to make a project using the design sheets. I've used Design Sheet 2 which you can find here or you can find the full collection here.

Here's another pic of the little charm ...

Scatty Jan For my project this week I have made a little gift bag, I have used the new collection Helga and I have decorated using the design sheet 1 . I have also used one of the tags from the collection.

Bev here with a cute little tag made from Design Sheet 1 from Sticks & Bones. when you still want to craft and have very little time these design sheets make life so much easier. All I used from my crafty stash was my card base, a glitter pen, glossy accents, distress ink and raffia.

Now let's see the wonderful DT inspiration - the DT's twist on the challenge theme is Use a Die and if you want to join in with that theme then go for it :-)

Tina - This time I designed an elves house. I used the Belle Papillon Kahuna Bundle and for the shield on the roof the middle size of the oft the Die Cut Set Elegant Nest. The house is made of a chips roll and for the roof I did Cardstock curled up and covered with many small pieces of paper.

A corner of the squares was rounded and wiped with stamp ink. A few half beads, a miniature frame, some glitter and real moss make the house to a dreamy shelter for small elves. 

Anjie - For this card I have used the paper pad from the Bella Papillon crafting kit. You can also buy the paper on it's own HERE. I have then stamped the flower from the Bella Fleur craft kit. You can also buy the stamp set on it's own HERE. I have then cut out a frame using the Elegant Nest set of 3 dies. I used the same die to cut out the flower and trimmed it down to size. I then added a bow and some flourish die cuts behind it.

Michelle - For this card I have used Lavender Tea Collection this collection is beautiful such gorgeous colours I have also used Polkadoodles Dies Ribbon Gift Frames and Corners these dies are just beautiful to use.

Scatty Jan use a die cut , so easy with the new range of Polkadoodles dies that are now available - The die I used is a doublet die , absolutely adoring these dies with matching stamps. The papers used are from the new collection and the mannequin is from the CD - Find all the goodies here.

Claire C with so many gorgeous new dies available from Polkadoodles choosing my dies was the real challenge here lol.  I've used papers, stamps and dies from the Belle Papillon Papercrafting Kit and added some flowers from the Bella Fleur Paper craft Kit to make this shabby chic card.

Bev here, I decided to make a birthday card for my Step Dad using the adorable Winston Download Collection and for the dies I used both the Super Sprigs and Ribbon/Gift Frames & Corners.

Lou: I've used the wonderful Belle Papillon and Bella Fleur stamp, paper and dies collections to create my card. Images coloured with pan pastels with a light glitter finish.

Gail - I've used the delicious Belle Papillon printable collection, available on CD-ROM or as a download, along with the Elegant Nest die and co-ordinating Belle Papillon stamp set and dies, Butterfly die and Elegant Flourish die.

Lots of fabulous creations to inspire you...

I've added lot's of details to my card, using texture paste and a stencil on two corners of the patterned paper, a piece of cheesecloth and I've mat and layered the main Etty Shy image onto a shape die cut from a fine hessian fabric.
