Sensational Saturday at Sugar Creek Hollow

Welcome to another sensational Saturday at Sugar Creek Hollow. We have a terrific challenge for you this week and can't wait to see what you create with this week's theme.

Create a vintage, shabby chic or primitive style card or paper project that features "Winged Things".  That includes many possibilities like angels, butterflies, fairies, birds or any winged insect.  Should be fun for you and I do hope you'll join us this week in this challenge.

I choose this wonderful fairy image from A Day For Daisies to fit the theme this week. She was colored with Prismacolor pencils and blended with gamsol. I think the pencils provide a softer look suited for this image. I sparkled up her wings and the flowers with glitter.  The background paper is from Webster Pages and I loved that it had the butterflies on it so it too is keeping with this week's "Winged Things" theme.

Now head on over to the Sugar Creek Hollow blog and see the wonderful inspiration from the design team creations on this week's challenge. I'd also like to welcome Chris Veneruso as our guest designer who was selected from the June card of the week winners. You'll see her creativity at work at the blog too.

Thanks for stopping by today!
