So lets see what our Design Team have made this week....

Andrea :My card for our Challenge - Decoupage Helga  Design Sheet - You will find it here....

Hester - I have used Eden Birdcage from the Eden collection. I have also used the paper from Distressed Wood. She comes out of here cage to welcome spring.

Jane S - I have also used one of the gorgeous ladies from the Darling Buds Collection and this is Daffodil.  I have also used a sentiment that comes free when you buy the complete bundle and a paper from the Eden Collection.

Katrina ~ I decided it was time to use my butterfly picture for a spring canvas.  It's almost like this lovely little Darling Bud has given her blessing to this butterfly!  My project includes papers or elements from the following:   Helga Hippo Paper Heaven 4,  Helga Hippo Paper Heaven 3,  Winston Deluxe Full Download,  Flower Flourish SVG,  Crocus, The Darling Buds,  Helga Sentiments Download Bundle...

Petra For this week I made a boxcard with Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime in front of some tulips. I just love tulips, don't you? Normally when I buy tulips I only buy one color, but for this card I decided to use 2 different colours. I used Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles Papers 9 for the flowers, and added a little bit of colour with my Copics.

Julie - I could not resist colouring up another image from the  Darling Buds Collection, so I made a Mothers Day card, using the beautiful Dahlia, coloured with Copics.

Monica - Spring is all about flowers and Lemonade Fizz Collection has a lot of flowers to choose from. It also includes beautiful card templates as the beehive card that I´m using in my project. Papers and sentiment are from the same collection. Digi stamp is Love you mum from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles.

Julia - I was very excited when I found a hot air balloon digi stamp in the Summertime collection ( I actually screamed out loud, lol ) .. I just had to use it!! Along with all the yummy flowers on that collection.  I teamed it up with a sentiment from the Darling Bud collection and some papers from the Magic Garden collection. This card was kind of born of a happy accident .. to find out more feel free to pop over to my blog.

Anjie -  So I chose to use the beautiful Winnie Sugar Sprinkles collection, and worked with design sheet 5 from it. As you can see I didn't use the Winnie image from the collection but it still makes a beautiful card. There were a few other bits left as well, which will go to make another card. Lots more info on my blog.

Yvonne - For the theme Spring Has Sprung I had to play with Winnie and this collection is 'Fruit Punch' which you can find here as a complete download collection.  The papers, sentiment and character are all from Fruit Punch, you can get the character 'Dandelion Days' on her own here if you like...

Jane P- There is one thing that comes to mind when I here Spring has sprung and that is seed packets.  What better way to get a start on the season, even though the weather is not cooperating is to grab the Lavender Tea Collection and create a card with a seed packet for that special friend or family member.

Melissa - When I saw this challenge theme I could not wait to colour Winston Bear Gardening.

Željka-Hello!!!For this week challenge,Spring is Sprung I had to use adorable image PRIMROSE

 (precolored) from The Darling Buds Collection and combine with the designer paper from

HELGA HIPPO PAPER HEAVEN 2 ,so it looks like she is walking through the garden

Pauline - I have used one of the beautiful character images from the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime Download Bundle to create my spring card.  I also used a couple of the papers, a border from the embellies section and one of the word art sentiments - as usual lots of fussy cutting and layering up to create dimension.

Dawn - I have used one of the beautiful character images from the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime Download Bundle to create my card.  I also used a couple of the papers and one of the sentiments from the bundle. 

Great work from the team!

So let’s see what the design team have made for us and to give you a little bit of inspiration all the design team have used something new to them….

Jane P.-Just loving this Summertime Collection.  I used the Serif Craft Artist app to create my card this week and printed it out on Ultimate Graphic Paper from the Polkadoodles store

Gail - For this weeks challenge, I've created an art journal page using the sunglasses from the Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles VIP collection, available as an instant download or on CD-ROM. I've also used stamps from the following stamp sets to add interest to the background - Lemonade Fizz, Lavender Tea & Magic Garden, full details over on my blog.

Fiki-on my card I use image Winnie and sentiment from Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection.

Anjie - I have used the Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection (again). This is made using design sheet number 7 which you can buy on its own HERE. The "Something New" I have used is the postcard stamp which is from Wish You Were Here stamp set. More info and photos on my blog.

Julie - This week I have used the lovely Stamp Me - Summertime stamps and a cheap circle frame that I have covered in bling.

Lori - This week, I am using this cutie-patootie from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime collection :) My "something new" part of my make is the background design papers - which you can find in this collection as well! Happy crafting!

Jane S – All the pre-coloured elements I have used for my DL card are from the stunningly pretty LEMONADE FIZZ COLLECTION which has the most delicious colour palette.  I have used some new dies too.  Well never been used anyway! Oops! Have a lovely crafty day! xxx

Monica.- Just by the end of Summer, I chose to use Summer time, a cd I have never used before. This cd is also available as a digital download. Air balloon, clouds, papers and sentimente, all were taken from this cd.

Jacki for my card I have use the Winnie in Wonderland download collection both images have not been used before and the style of card is new(ish)to me. The paper I used is from the same collection and I added sentiments,a large fussy bow with button a pearls to finish.

Nancy - For my card this week I have used Design Sheet 5 from the Winnie Fruit Punch Collection.

My "Use Something New" is a brand new cutting machine!

Tanya - For this week's make I've used one of the newer collections called Summertime CD which you can get here and I've created a card using some of the flowers which I resized in Craft Artist in three sizes and then cut out and layered them over one another.  The papers are also from the collection, as is the sentiment, which had been black and white chalkboard effect but I recoloured it to co-ordinate with the papers used.

Great makes from the DT and I’m sure you will agree that we have some great ideas for you this week!

So let’s see what the design team have made for us….

Nancy: For my shaped card I used items from the Winnie Fruit Punch Collection. I started with the Dancing Queen digi with the fun frame around it. The frame determined the shape of my card. The background paper is from the kit, and so are the lovely flowers.

Fiki-on my card I use image Wishes and sentiment from Winnie Fruit Punch collection. The paper is from the Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection.

Jane P.- This week our team made Shaped cards and I decided to use the Lavender Tea Collection and cut out the lovely tea pot to create this weeks card.

Anjie - I used a scalloped circle die from Tattered Lace to create my card shape and then the mats and layers. I have then used a design sheet from the amazing Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection. I told you I loved it and would be using it lots lol I fussy cut everything out and mounted them all onto 3D foam to make them stand out. 

Jacki : For my card I decided to make a twisted easel card simply because I hadn't made one for an age and a half and really had the urge lol. I used papers from the Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection  I also printed out some little fishes and seahorses and used as embellies.The image I used  is from the Meribelle mermaid collection  which I  fussy cut out and added to some sand paper for added texture.

 Monica.-For my shaped card I used a mix ´n match from different collections. For the shaped card I used the Candy Village templates from Twiggy & Toots Festive Fun. Instead of making it for Christmas, I made it full of gorgeous flowers with papers, embellisments and sentiment from Lavender Tea Collection. And for a final tiny touch, I added the mailman owl from Twiggy & Toots Owls Collection.

Jane S – Go Karter GO!!!! And that’s what I have used on my card this week, the fab GO KARTER that I have duplicated, re-sized and merged to create a race! He is also available as part of the wonderful WORK AND PLAY 2 collection.  Have a lovely crafty day! xxx

Tanya -  This week I've made a card using the wonderful embellies and tags and a chalkboard sentiment from the pretty pretty Stamp Soup Magic Garden collection which you can get here as a stamp and CD collection or here as a CD only.  More pictures on my blog

Julie - This week I have visited Wonderland, using a couple of images from the Winnie in Wonderland collection and a gatefold card from the Silhouette Store.  I have coloured with my Copics, check out my blog for a surprise inside!!

Gail - For this weeks challenge, I've made a photo frame style card using the scrummy Winnie in Wonderland collection. The Winnie in Wonderland collection is available on CD-Rom and as instant download.

Great makes from the DT and I’m sure you will agree that we have some great ideas for you this week!
