I enjoy trying something new. It’s not easy to create transparency. We will see what happen.
Thank you

I had to try this one after watching Suzanne on You Tube!
The DT made some beautiful cards! They are all great! I did a wedding dress…hopefully it qualifies.
Awesome challenge – fantastic price (*drools*). And what a great inspiration from the DT and the great tutorials you found for us.
Love this challenge site, always great themes and cards are gorgeous but only just managed to take part this week – happened to be colouring in a wedding dress/veil 🙂 here it is TFL Fran xx
Great challenge! I had a lot of fun making my card even though it cost me. Read all about it on my blog. You’ll get a kick out of it.
This is my first time doing one of these challenges…I hope I did everything right :o))
Thanks for a great challenge…looking forward to more of these!
Love this blog and love taking part. I think I managed to scarape in before the deadline.
Thanks for the Tutes and the gorgeous DT samples.
