Digi of the month on Imagine That

Welcome back crafters!!  It's time for our next 'Digi of the Month' challenge *Ü*  I know the next holiday would be Halloween, but since it's never been a holiday that my family gave much attention to, I decided to focus more on the BIG holiday right around the corner... CHRISTMAS!  Most card-makers try to create their own handmade greetings throughout the year, or at least cram in a small bundle for friends and family in the months/weeks just prior to.  :)  If you were hoping for a Fall themed, or even Thanksgiving digi, you can find plenty of those HERE.

Here is my card

and yes it's decoupaged again but I do love it it's so cute. I have told you I am a mad cat woman.

In the U.S. the month June is the beginning of summer, many schools letting out for 3 months, trips to the lake, dance recital performances, and it's one of the most popular months for weddings. Lots of choices to create a challenge around, but Kris decided we should celebrate summer with some cool treats.

Here is my card for the challenge

as you know I love decoupage  and I find Kris' coloured images are great for this.

using Ice Cream Parlour - digi stamp set

& Ice Cream Parlour - digi papers

I printed 4 images using the first image as the base and then cut the rest down to give you a wonderful 3d effect.The digi paper is just perfect and the card teamed with black card just makes it pop. There are wonderful sentiments with the set but I used a rubber stamp I had.

Teacup pansies

The store has been revamped!!  We now have a separate store for all our EU customers, (since the new law requires that we manually email digital goods to EU customers),  However, everyone can shop and check out using the regular checkout process.  The EU products will not have instant download links, but rather I will email the files to the email provided when you check out... usually within a few hours at most.  If you do not live in the EU, you may shop our main store and enjoy instant downloading!  :)

Pretty Peacock

Happy March!  I can't hardly believe it's March already, but I'm sure ready for some warmer weather... you know what they say, "In like a lion, out like a lamb"  :)  Crossing fingers for that.

Thanks to all who played in February's challenge with the Mailbox Kitties!  I sure enjoy knowing my digis are getting put to use and bringing smiles to your friends & loved ones.  They were all so cute!

For this month's digi, Kris was inspired by the blog train theme at PS, which is "Animal Kingdom." The color scheme was huge, but I eyed some beautiful magentas, blues and greens, so I drew up some 'Pretty Peacocks' for you to play with :) See also 2 papers packs & 2 Alphas below. Everyone who entered last month received this set FREE!

EVERYONE can play this month because Kris is offering the colored version of these peacocks in her Blog Train kit HERE. (note: just the colored peacocks/flowers from this set are free in the train kit, but you can purchase this whole set including outlines and sentiments in her shop here.)

Challenge Deets:

Create a project using this set (Not just a sentiment please, unless you use the coordinating digi papers along with it) - If you did not play last month, you can still jump in by purchasing this whole set in the store OR grab the freebie in my Blog Train post, then come link up!

**By entering our challenge, you give owner, Kris permission to use your card if she chooses on her product page for advertising purposes. Your name will be listed, of course.

Here is my card

and here's a side-view showing all the layering,

I used the coloured image and printed it four times and added 3 layers of decoupage and finished off with gold stickles.

I also used the Peacocks 12" digi papers for the backing page.
