Morning Peeps so time for a new challenge at Allsorts, this week we are celebrating our 12th Birthday and have a bumper giveaway with twelve prizes, so do pop over to the challenge blog and see what you could win by entering our 'Happy, Bright and Sunny Colours' theme.
We are so fortunate to have a lovely group of sponsors to whom we are most grateful, this weeks prizes come from the following craft stores: Craft Stash, Chloes Cards, Tattered Lace, Crafting.co.uk, Sizzix and Bee Crafty.
As it's a special week I have a little giveaway as well, a winner will be drawn from all those commenting on this post and announced next Saturday. There are some Chocolate Baroque black and white papers, coloured stamping cards and their lovely Poppy Ledger stamp.
My creation at the top is a background of various workers stamps, stencilling and washi tape, all done totally randomly to see that I ended up with. A large Chocolate Baroque Butterfly stamped into vellum with Versafine Clair and heat embossed with detail clear EP, cut out and placed over some black twine and sentiment from one of my own stamp sets.
My second share featured Stamp Addict Groovi Blooms stamped onto card inked with Oxides, an inky stencilled background onto which I drew the flower stems and then added the flowers and leaves and a die cut circle behind the large bloom. The sentiment is also SA.
I really do hope you will join in our Birthday celebrations, with so many prizes on offer why not!!

Happy 12th Birthday Allsorts and here's to many more!! Lve these sunny coloured cards Brenda, lets hope they are a promise of things to come. I managed a quick ride this morning before the heavens opened again, looking better next week though...fingers crossed!! xx
Buon dodicesimo compleanno ad Allsorts, Brenda! :) Come diciamo in Italia, 100 di questi giorni!
La tua card "random" ha dei colori così dolci e solari e adoro la grande farfalla di CB! Il corpo è fatto con una lancetta di orologio, vero? Stupenda!
Anche la seconda card è molto bella, lo sfondo fa risaltare i fiori così bene e vedo che hai usato ancora il cerchio vuoto, è un'ottima strategia per creare un punto focale! Un'altro trucco che devo ricordare :)
Un abbraccio
I love both your cards but especially the gorgeous butterfly.
Beautiful cards as always Brenda...all so different and you are so good with colours...
Anne
Beautiful

Hot sunny colours are just right to lure the summer weather in Brenda - and it's worked!! That huge orange butterfly looks beautiful against your collage style background and the stylised flowers in the second card are just beautiful. What a generous prize you're offering too - happy birthday to Allsorts! Vicky x
Very beautiful cards!
Happy 12th birthday at Allsorts!
I love your bright and beautiful butterfly and I always admire your variety of designs and technique, wow.

Wonderful cards, as always.
