I was sad when PaperPlay finished - I so liked being on the DT - especially when my mojo was in need of a kick in the pants, nothing like a deadline to spark something!!
So I'm really excited to have been asked to join the DT of Sentimental Sundays - Calypso runs a large and very international team of crafters and I'm chuffed to join them and look forward to lots of fun challenges.
Today is the first challenge in which I've joined the team, and it's called "Thank You (plus a sentiment)" - we are sponsored by Sweet 'n Sassy

Here's the card I made as my DT sample:
I used the sketch from this week's Mojo Monday and I'm also entering this into Totally Gorjuss ("Flowers"), Moving along with the Times ("Bling") and Creative Inspirations ("Anything Goes with Flowers").
Sorry about the bad lighting, it's been very dark and rainy here, so I've had to perform miracles with photoshop to try and get something approaching the real colours!! When I was taking this side-shot, the sun, with a rainbow, came out briefly (see it streaking along the top!!) but it was so bright that it washed out the colours when I took a shot from the front!! Anyway, here are the layers:
Recipe:
Papers: Echo Park "Times and Seasons"
Stamp: Hero Arts "Peeking Posies"
Punch: Fiskars "Threading Water"
Other: Ribbon from stash, Hero Arts gems, stickles, distress stickles, needle + thread.
Thanks for looking!

Beautiful card, Julie! Congrats on the new DT gig; I know you will rock it :)
I love your interpretation of the MM sketch too!
Beautiful! You have used one of my favorite flower stamps on your card. I am so happy to be on this DT with you and getting to know you.
Julie, this is so pretty. Love the mix of papers and fun gingham ribbon. Very jealous of the rainbow, haven't seen one in forever! So good to be working with you on the Sentimental Sundays team!
This is really pretty Julie …the paper is gorgeous and I love the image and layout! the ribbon and gems are perfect embellishments!
Thanks for joining us at MAWTT and good luck in the Challenge!
