So what are the challenges

Well there is

 MERGE AS MANY IMAGES AS YOU CAN


 I managed to merge SEVEN images for this picture



Daffodil Dell

Cici

Fifi

Notti

Toto

Vixie



 

I coloured the images with Derwent Coloursoft Pencils, because these new digi  images are soo cute I kept the card layout real simple and just added some of Zoe's gorgeous laser cut chipboard corners. 
If you dont like the idea of merging images then perhaps you will like the next challenge better.
Your mission if you are prepared to accept it is
CHIPBOARD ONLY
yep we dont want to see any images on your creation OMG you know what that means
NO COLOURING!!!!!!!!!!!

 I went the for the clean and simple look for this easel card, Zoe's lasercut chipboard is soo intricate and lovely in all honesty they really dont need to much to make them look stunning. All I have done is paint them with Silver Eco Acrylic Paint and used Silver Mirri Board for Matting.


These are all from the Butterfly Swirls Set


 Added a Text and more chipboard on the inside Job done! One real quick easy card which if I have to say so myself I think looks real classy.




Now if that challenge doesnt appeal pop on over to the challenge site and see what the rest of the challenges are and of course get inspired by the Make It Colourful design team, who have some Jaw Dropping inspiration for you.
