I decided to go with a scene, with reference to ancient Celtic myth and magic. Stamps used: Celtic circle with eagle, cross, mountain background - Non Sequitur; deer - Stampscapes; birds - Inkylicious; foreground foliage - Chocolate Baroque. Background sponged with pigment inks.
Here's the fantastic prize on offer this month!
Don't forget to hop over to the Challenge Blog and have a look at the wonderful samples my very talented teamies have made. Hope you can join in too, and good luck everyone!
Going back to the Stampalot Challenge Birthday competition last month, where you had to guess which DT member made which card, this was mine:
It didn't occur to me when I made it, but it too could fit this month's theme. All stamps by Chocolate Baroque. I used a rainbow Adirondack inkpad to swipe the background, and the same pad to stamp the butterfly. Martha Stewart punched border, and a peel-off sentiment.

These cards are both stunning Lynne. I love the scene you have created and the unusual but perfect colours you have used.
The second card is another beauty and I love that swiped background. I've tried that quite a few times and just cannot get anything good enough to use. The echoing of the colours on the butterfly looks so effective and the colours are really pretty.

Two amazing cards, Lynne. I love the swiped inkpad background on the second one. I'd never have thought of trying that.
