PBSC May - Anything Goes...Optional 'Make Your Own Background'...More Inpsiration!

Happy Saturday everyone! 

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

Here are the DTs favourite projects from April's 'Anything Goes' (Optional 'Fresh Spring Colours') challenge:

Helen's favourite: #24 - Ellie

Helen says: I love the simple layouts and beautiful watercolouring on both of Ellie's cards on this post...and of course those adorable critters!

Jenny's favourite: #31 - Maura

Jenny says: I love the technique Maura has used and the vibrant coloured. She's made the card fairly CAS by adding the white panel. Beautiful card!

Natalie's favourite: #1 - Mervi

Natalie says: Such a sweet image with a soft colour scheme!

Sylvie's favourite: #43 - Milla

Sylvie says: Love this modern look...stunning card!

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:

We loved all of your other cards too Milla!
