I was chuffed to bits the other week when our lovely Cynthia asked me to join the Design Team for her weekly challenge over on Rainbow Lady's Challenge Blog. Just the incentive I needed to get my crafting juices flowing again - at least - that's the plan. Sadly the place is available because one of the current DT members, Jen, has to retire from the team at the moment - but she will be joining in the challenges when she can.
This challenge is sponsired by Laura from That's Crafty who is giving away at set of Dyan Reaveley stamps.
So this is my first week - and the challenge is - On the Street Where you Live. I made the background for this card in Craft Artist. The houses and bushes are Chocolate Baroque stamps, coloured with Promarkers.
The extra bits like the words and the green 'verge' were also done in Craft Artist and stuck on after. I wasn't sure what the card was going to be but my daughter was staying the weekend, saw it on my desk and said could she have it for a new home card - so I had to finish it off quickly for her to take home. It's an 8 x 8 so I hope she's going to hand it over and not post it!
I do hope you'll join in the challenge this week - the challenge subject could mean all sorts of things.
Thanks very much for visiting today.

Congratulations on the DT spot Beryl and what a great piece to kick off with. So clever how you combine what I gather is a computer programme with the stamping.
Rain, rain and more rain.....
