GETTING STITCHED UP ... on A Day for Daisies!...

Double the excitement this week at A Day for Daisies ... New images released and the start of a new challenge.

It's that time of year in the Northern Hemisphere - snow is melting (hopefully!), flowers are blooming and kiddies everywhere are preparing for a visit from the Easter Bunny! Tammy's new release is full of gorgeous images depicting flowers, chicks, bunnies and eggs... isn't it fabulous? Don't you want them all! You can find them in the shop, by visiting here.




We begin a new challenge today, ADFD Challenge #15 - "In Stitches"! Now here's a chance to dust off that old sewing needle and show us your skills! Add stitches to your creation. For those who don't own a needle (or care to dust it off!) we've seen some pretty impressive faux stitching and fantastic rub-ons and stamps, so you can fudge a little - LOL!

Here's a card I made with one of the new releases, with some REAL stitching - those little beads and sequins as flowers were stitched on using bright orange thread. Now how simple is that?!



Why now visit the challenge post by clicking here to see what it's all about? We'd love you to use a ADFD image, and to help you, there is even a freebie for you to use. This is a card that I made using that very freebie ....



Happy creating - you have the next two weeks to create your entry.

Love and hugz
Jen

    Works of art both on the drawings and how you've designed and colored each one.
