Thanks for the digis you provide for our participation in your challenges. I would love the pasque flowers. They are beautiful.

I love your challenges and would still play even if you didn't offer such great prizes. It's hard to choose, but I think Pasque Flower would be best used in my world. I have several of the cute critters in my stash already so time to play with some flowers. THANKS.

What a great challenge and so generous too! I used Doodle Pantry happy bird image with pearls for a baby card. I found choosing which image I would like very hard they are both so very nice. I finally decided on the digging ant please. All of the dt cards are gorgeous. Thanks for a great challenge
