Cupcake Cards n Craft - Royal Challenge and Sentimental Sundays Special Challenge! - DT Cards

Wow what a busy Sunday this is!! Its Cupcake Cards and Crafts new challenge for May which is he theme for May is Red, White and Blue!

This month is to celebrate the wedding of William and Kate and what better challenge than to use the royal colours!

There will be one winner personally chosen as usual for this month's challenge who will receive the 'Patrotic' paper collection.

Also it's the Special Challenge at Sentimental Sundays! The challenge is "Mother's Day" or "For a Woman." The reason why this one is special is that we have an optional challenge of "Craft with a Child." We feel that it's a wonderful thing to be able to bond with a child through crafting and art! even though my wee one is not interested what so ever with card making apart from cutting up scarps of paper and creating a big mess on the floor, i did try bribery with sweets but that didn't even cut it with my son!

For all those who submit something created by a son, daughter, niece, nephew, child next door, etc, you will automatically receive the Krafty Kids Sentiments for the crafty child and the Mother's Day Sentiments for the crafty adult who helped them. If you like, you can grab our button below to help us spread the word about our special challenge :)

So finally here is my card for my Sister in law for her Birthday and i love my kimmies as they are so cute yet quirky which is my SIL all over bless her!
