This layout is for a challenge at Hybrid Designs set by Kym
(cardstock, 2 PP, flowers, bling, brads and ribbon.....easy enough)


This is for the Cyber Crop at The Scrapbook Establishment...it is a Number challenge

The these last 2 layouts are for the Cyber Crop at Scrapbook'n'Bits.

This is a colour challenge (BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW, and PINK)
