As this is such a special cause, I have made two examples this week

This one is by JLJ Designs over at the Stitchy & I Did It Creations store .I cut up various pieces of different papers & stuck them onto my card, then cut up strips & placed them on top to create a grid of colour. Printed the image onto card, glittered the flag in rainbow colours. Found a copyright free rainbow on the internet & placed the text over the top.

This is a set of papers by Toucan Scraps over at the store again especially made for the challenge. This time I used a template from UKScrappers for a paper doily & cut it out on my Robo. Placed an eyelet at the top with some rainbow fibres & hey presto, a wall hanging for my neice Hannah. Added flowers & a tag from stash with a brad & voila!

Entered into the following challenges 
Timbroscrapmania Anything Goes
Paper Pretties Brads/Eyelets (on doily)
Southern Girls Anything Goes
YNS Anything Goes
 
Last but not least I have a little blog candy to give away. Those of you who follow my blog, will see I have been making my own flowers lately, so I have a selection to give away along with  8 snowflake cuttlebugged  pieces of card. Its not a lot, but nevertheless a gesture in aid of a good cause. All I would ask is that you comment & think about becoming a follower, although its not necessary to win. I may vary the contents slightly but there will not be less than photographed & could be more...lol. I will pick a winner next Sunday night & post the winner then.
 
Finally at the end of a long post, did you notice how I did all the text in rainbow colours??????

This morning I was blog hopping as you do & bought a couple of Sassy Cheryl images, 1 of which is the post below this one & the other I have not yet coloured, but I wanted to enter Sassy Cheryls challenge, so used her freebie for 700 followers, as the challenge is to use a snowman, ribbon, button/s (I used brads) & sparkle.
The image was coloured with Prisma pencils & blended with Sansador.
BP was Bearly Mine Christmas Sparkle
Ribbon from stash, as are the brads
Snowflakes cut from a template over at UK Scrappers & cut on my Robo.
Sentiment is a stamp from a SeeD bought from QVC years ago.
Entered into Sassy Cheryls challenge, its her image, ribbon, & sparkle comes from Glamour Dust on the image (hard to see in photo) & mirri card. I used brads instead of buttons.

Yesterday I spent most of the day making my own cut file on the Robo to enable me to make these flowers, which I have coloured & made up, glittering along the way.I had no stamens but by adding the tiny jewels, I think it looks quite effective, even though I say it myself...lol. (The white roses are from my stash)
The image is See No Evil by Sassy Cheryl coloured with Prisma pencils & blended with Sansador.
BPs are a mixture of Bearly Mine Dots & Computer Scrapbook.

I have coloured her with H2Os as I wanted a more grungy look. The papers are a mixture of Dragons Lair "Francheska" over at Stitchy store and Miriams Scrap.
I have distressed the edges of all the papers. Flowers are also a mixture, but the rose is hand made.

Sentiment from a SeeD bought from QVC years ago & embossed. The BP is also by Stamping Dragon/Dragons Lair over at same store called Christmas Basics. I printed  2 BP onto card & cut out 3 circles using my Craft Robo, 1 slightly smaller which is mounted into the front card. I then printed another paper & again cut out a scalloped circle with the Robo. Used my Crop O Dile to make eyelets & attach together with gold ribbon.
