A simple gift

It's time for a new challenge at Paper Creator's Crafts and the theme for this months challenge is Something for the Kids - Paper Creator products are not essential but you will gain an extra entry for using them.

I decided to use the sweet Simple Gift of a Flower image from Sassy Cheryl, I think it's perfect for a little girl - so bright and cheerful.

I kept my design nice and simple so that the image would be centre stage, I just added a gingham bow and sentiment tag from my stash.

Make sure you pop over to the Paper Creator's Crafts Blog to check out the inspiration, we have some fabulous new DT members joining us this month so make sure you take a look at their blogs and leave some love.  It would be great if you would join us for our Something for the Kids challenge - you could win a fabulous £10 coupon to spend in the Paper Creator Shop.
