PBSC May - Masculine...More Inspiration!

Happy Saturday everyone! 

We're back with some more inspiration for our current challenge, and the announcement of our chosen guest designer and DT favourites from last month's challenge!

Firstly, here are the DTs favourite projects from April's 'Showers' challenge:

Debby's Favourite: #24 - Andrea

Debby says: I love the simplicity but striking card and gutted that I don't have the stamp.

Greta's Favourite: #13 - Lillian


Greta says:  I was drawn to Lillian's beautiful coloring of this darling image. She showcased it perfectly with the 2 color palette & simple matching layers.


Helen's Favourite: #18 - Yenni Paper Love

Helen Says: I love the bright and cheery colours...and a shower of hearts surely must be the best kind?! 

Lorraine's Favourite: #17 - Eve Maynard

Lorraine says: I love the cas design, the pretty colour scheme and the very cute bear. A perfect card for our April showers challenge.

Natalie's Favourite: #15 - Em's Paperdaze

Natalie says: The use of contemporary colours on a Christmas card instantly catches the eye and I love the added sparkle on the edges of the snow.

Sue's & Sylvie's Favourite: #23 Yenni Paper Love

Sue says: The use of color on this card is just amazing...Gorgeous!!

Sylvie says: Love the Stunning colours Yenni has used ...the images are so cute...love it...
