As I haven't had so much time for crafting recently I've only been able to be on one DT but what a wonderful team it is!  I love being part of the All Dressed Up design team & getting to use Wendy's gorgeous images & I especially look forward to her new images each month & this time I chose (though it was a hard choice) "For You" & I coloured it with chalks.  I used various scraps for my stash & and added a bit of ribbon & pearls.  

The challenges:
Crafting With Attitude - Anything Goes
Chocolate, Coffee & Cards - Fancy & Feminine
Little Red Wagon - Digi Do 
Love to Scrap - Do a Double Take
Karleigh Sue - Ribbon &/or Flowers 
Card Mania - Pastel Colors
