Also don't forget we are also always looking for people to guest spot on our DT. So if you would like to be considered as a GDT, after your name on your entry add the letters GDT.

So let's get onto to what the team have made this week.

Ruth:  I've used Beanie Girl and coloured her up with Promarkers and then used papers that I found in my stash - for once I actually picked the papers before I coloured the image!  I had a clear out over Christmas and found lots of printed papers that I'd forgotten I had, so I'm determined to use them up!  The sentiment is an X Cut die and I've added ribbons from my stash.

Marjeta - Hello dear friend!

I would like to show you a gift box that I made for this challenge. I used sponsors (Lemon Shortbread)  digital stamp - Hot Cuppa Girl. I coloured it with Prismacolor penciles:

- face: creme, burnt ochre, goldenrod

- hair: creme, yellow ochre, dark brown

- clothes: pouder blue, electric blue, true blue, lemon yellow, salmon pink

I embellished it with Crafty Ribbons ribbon, texture paste, different dies and lots of flowers.

Hello. This is Kym here. For my card I have used the Lemon Shortbread image called "Beanie Girl". I coloured the image in with Promarkers. I have gone for a shabby chic style card so all card/papers have been distressed with my Tim Holtz distressing tool and a brown chalk ink pad rubbed along all the distressed edges. I have finished the card off with some ribbon under the lace, die-cut sentiment, banner, greenery, leaves, flower and a brad. The Promarkers I have used are:

Face/skin - Saffron, Spice and Oatmeal 

Hair - Burnt Sienna, Chestnut and Henna

Dress/boots/hat - Salmon Pink, Antique Pink, Cocoa and Burnt Sienna.

Hi Everyone!  Tammy here!  Just wanted to share my card using the Hot Cuppa Girl from Lemon Shortbread.   I colored her with just some basic markers.  My DP is just some random sheets from swaps that I have received recently and I've paired it with a fun sentiment from My Favorite Things called Cup of Tea.  I also added just a few Nuvo Drops in red to give it a bit of texture.  I hope you like it!

Jill  here....I made a box with Tag. And I colored her with Copic Marker.

Hiya - Vic here!  I'm here to share my card this month, with my lovely image from

 Lemon Shortbread - "fairy flower scent."  I knew this would make a lovely card for my friends little girl, who was is about to turn 3. She was a delight to colour and I popped

her on a diecut stitched shape. I made a little ribbon shaped sentiment

and diecut the number 3 and her name. 

The little penant on the top right hand side is also a diecut. 

The backing paper came from a freebie paper pack. from Pink Petticoat (no longer trading).  I coloured the fairy with my alcohol pens:-

Spectrum noirs: EB3, EB6, EB2, PL3, TN2, JG3.

Promarkers: rose pink, blossom, pastel yellow, canary.

Janet - My card for this challenge is using the Lemon Shortbread called Beanie Girl. I've coloured her with Copic pens. I have used a patterned paper from a old company called Magenta. Then lots of die cut page leaves to decorate.

Željka-Hello!!! For this week I used Beanie Girl from lemon shortbread and I colored the image with my ZIG clean color real brush pens (the colors I used will be listed on my blog).The blue paper is from my stash and yellow one is from Polkadoodles
