PBSC February - Try Something New...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 January's 'Anything Goes' challenge:


Greta's Favourite: #101 - Third Sister


Greta says: I love seeing this beautiful old PB iris stamp.  Sarah's watercolored background & vellum overlay with the gold embossed iris make for an elegant & modern card!

Helen's Favourite:  #92 - Les idees de Margouille


Helen Says: I love the watercolour stamping technique used on this card...and the combination of colours is just gorgeous!

Lorraine's Favourite: #58 - Pam B


Lorraine says: Love the sweet stamp and it did make me smile!

Congratulations ladies - please grab our 'PBSC Favourite' badge for your blog!


And the guest designer chosen from the wonderful 'GDT' entries on last month's challenge is: 



Congratulations Janice! Please email me (Helen) so that I can give you all the information you'll need...and don't forget to grab the 'Guest Designer' badge for your blog!

'Try Something New'
