Winter (wonderland)Chaos and spring fever

Good morning all

We're up and running again over at 

Winter Wonderland

We found out that our lovely DT leader Eileen (Stars cards) is very poorly in hospital at the moment and we've been cast a drift a bit , firstly because we didn't know where she was , then we didn't know what to do without her!  In the meantime Helen has taken over temporarily and we are running the challenge without our sponsors at the moment as we're not really sure about things!!

I'm sure you all agree that we need  to thank Helen for taking on the task and  also send our love and prayers to Eileen, we are being updated by her friend as to how she is and hope we will hear some good news about her soon

Anyway......
the theme of the challenge is

Spring Fever

(flowers, romance, sunshine  etc)
(we don't run Christmas challenges for the first few weeks of the year - to give you all a break!!)

I decided just to go with a pretty floral scene - of what I would like it to be like - instead of miserable cold and damp!!

Something news going on at Winter Wonderland!

Good morning all

Sorry I'm a bit late with my post today 
- shall I just say we've been having utility problems and leave it at that : / - electricity and water are not easily done without lol.

It's time for a new challenge over at


and the theme for this week is

Something New

I decided to make a new baby card as a friend of mine just had a new baby girl 

I used a cute image from our sponsor this week
called A Gift from the Stars its available HERE



I used my fab Spectrum Noir Sparkle pens together with Spectrum Noir markers to colour this cute image.  I tried my very best to show the sparkle in the photo - and think I succeeded!  It looks totally glittery - but it is much more subtle in real life.  I just sort of directed my craft lamp onto it and that pink certainly shines - the sparkle was also used on the leaves and stars as but think the light just really hit that pink lol.

Our sponsors this week at winter wonderland are
