Let's go Bright & Bold with CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS

Good morning gosh did you have the rain and thunder yesterday evening we did we got a fair few inches of rain guess we wont be having a hose pipe ban at the minute. 
Well I have my 2nd post for this months GDT at Creative Inspirations did you join us last week if so checkout the challenge blog to see if you won. I loved that sketch didnt you. Well this week the challenge has been picked by Kathy and we are going Colourful with the challenge of
BRIGHT & BOLD
This weeks sponsor is CRAFTY RIBBONS
So before you hop on over to the challenge blog for some inspiration and a nosey at the DT cards let me show you mine.
Last week I won some images from Art by Miran and I couldnt wait to colour them up.
 The image is called Hey you and I have used my Promarkers again to colour it.
 Isnt she a cutie below is a close up

I have made a shape card with my Quickutz frame die and cut a slightly smaller one of the Dp which is from Kate Knight. Oh these are the colours of summer sure enough. I used my Xcut ovals for the image and some wide pink organza ribbon which I twisted in the middle behind the image so it would lie better on the card. Th swirl flower die is actually 2 bow dies with the tails cut off and layered with a nice big gem for the centre. A small happy birthday stamp cut with my labels die and we are all done.
Well I hope this wasnt too bright for your eyes and hope that you can join in the challenge.
