Happy happy happy ...

This month I am the Guest Designer over at 

after winning the July Challenge, yay!  So the theme this month is 'Back to School' or 'Anything Goes'.  I have chosen anything goes as my two are all grown up now so no school days left!

I have made a pizza box using the lovely Lemon Craft 6x6 'Yesterday' paper pad which I chose as my prize, just beautiful.

Plenty of Doohickey dies, Italy Speedy Tilda stamp (had this stamp dare I say a long long time and it had never been inked, oops)! Heart gem & doily.  Decorated inside and out, hand stitched amp; coloured with Promarkers.

Sakura Tilda ...

I won the 'Pink' challenge in July over at Simply Magnolia and that gave me a wonderful Guest Design spot for September, yay!  

So the challenge for Simply Magnolia is 'Butterflies' nice and easy me thinks.  So here in the UK we have had many months now with very little rain, especially here in the South East so I thought I need to a fan to help cool me down whilst crafting.

So I have used Sakura Tilda (sorry she is an old girl so I cannot find a current link for her) and also

the Sakura Lantern dies from Magnolia/Doohickey.  Bamboo is from the Doohickey Box Vol 4 Le Jardin.  Papers are from Nitwits, hand stitched, tassles are again from a Doohickey Box this time Vol 5 Celebration, fan several layers cut on my Silhouette Cameo. Coloured with Promarkers, the butterflies are cut using the free dies from Die Cutting Essentials Issue 37 still available at Cutting Edge Crafts HERE

I would like to enter this into the following challenge -

Creatalicious Challenge - Anything Goes/Pastel Colours (I Won)!

So do come & play along at SIMPLY MAGNOLIA for our 'Butterfly' Challenge for a chance

to be their next Guest Designer.  Happy crafting love
