Challenge 83 - Anything Goes/Summer

Hello and welcome back to the challenge blog!

A big thank you to everyone who took part in our last challenge - we really appreciate you joining in.

Don't forget to come back here on 10 July to see who is the winner and top 3 was from last month's challenge.

All our challenges are now 'anything goes' with an optional theme for you to follow.  Our Design Team will use the optional theme but you can choose whether to or not.

Our optional theme this month is:

ANYTHING GOES/SUMMER

We have Jenn joining us this month as a Guest Designer and she has made this beautiful card:


Jenn has used My Sweet Sunflower which is available here in the shop.

For more details about Jenn's card and to leave her a comment, please head over to her blog here.

And here is some inspiration from our Design Team:

Annie using Beach Days

Deanne using Whale of a Tale

Gina using Dennis

Maria using Beach Days

Samantha  using Sunflower Smiles


Great cards - thank you ladies!

Please link up your cards below remembering to link to your post not your whole blog.

Our rules are in the sidebar - please make sure you follow them so you are eligible for our winner's prize of three digi stamps of your choice.  Our challenges end at 12 noon GMT on the 24th of each month and as I mentioned above, the results will be published on the 10th of the month.
