It is monday again and time formy second guest appearance at Incy Wincy. We have another fabolous challenge for you this week as it is a weather challenge. We are all pretty occupied by the weather, wanting to know if it is going to be sun? Or if it is going to snow or rain?? The weather is always a popular question and everybody is talking about it sometimes... So it is nothing to be wondering about. Go ahead and find something to add to your card that is related to weather. A sun, sky, rain or snow... 


So here's my card for this week's challenge with the lovely Dilly Duck and ladybug from Digital delights:

DT Cutie Pie: Easel with a sketch and some news

Hi there it is monday again and it has been 2 weeks since our last challenge over at Cutie Pie. We had some lovely entries for our Monochromatic challenge, and if you played along and wonder if you are one of our lucky winners, you got to check it out here

The challenge this week is a lovely one as well as it is a Easel with a sketch challenge. You get to choose between an oval shaped or a circle shaped image for your sketch, but otherwise it is the same sketch although you got to make an easel card for this challenge. If you are wondering about how to make an easel card, I know one tutorial for it here (one of very many I guess). It is quite fun to make easel cards, so I think you better get started doing the cards peeps. Oh so you are wondering how the sketch looks like?? You better go check our challenge blog, and there you will find some more lovely inspiration too;)

We are having a DT CALL as well. So if you are interested in being a Cutie Pie you should write DT after your name when you link up your project for this challenge!!

I told you I got some news for you as well. Well the news is that I am stepping down from this DT after this challenge, so I am delivering my final card for this challenge in this post. It is a bit sad cause these girls are truly amazing to work alongside with and they are always backing you up no matter what. Love you girls:)) 

Now I've completely forgot to tell you about our lovely sponsors for this challenge. We have the lovely:
