Yes, it’s that time of the month again where we announce the winner of last months challenge and launch a whole new challenge too.

We had some amazing pieces of work last month lifting Denise’s fun style.  Here are a couple of examples.

This one from Ebonyj.

And this from Marie.

Denise and I found it really hard to pick, but in the end we decided on this stunning piece of work from RoqinElvis13.

Those bright shades of yellow really pop out. Gorgeous background work and splashes of ink. Love it : ) Congratulations!! You can see more of RoqinElvis13′s work in her inspiring gallery here.

Now on to this months challenge. This month we are meeting our lovely Anna. Anna is so talented and fills her Cocoa Daisy gallery with art journal pages, LO’s, cards and canvases along with other projects too. This month anything goes. Please feel free to create anything. Here are some pieces of Anna’s work to inspire you.

Please join us on the message board here where we will chat about this challenge and share our work. We’d love to see what you create. Or please feel free to add a link here to your own blog showing your challenge piece.

This challenge runs until June 13th 10pm EST. It is a ‘just for fun’ challenge and is here to stretch and inspire. The winner will be announced and shown on our blog.

Have fun, we can’t wait to see your take on Anna’s style.

It’s time for our next ‘Pleased to Meet You’ challenge.

This month we are meeting our very arty Denise Morrison.

Denise brings fun and colour in a child like random kind of way to our gallery each month.
I love her fearless style. There’s a cool messiness to her work. She paints, she mists and masks, she scribbles, she layers.

Hopefully you know how this monthly challenge now goes. Each month we focus upon one of our DT members and then lift their style. It’s the perfect timing for a mid month challenge with the new kits arriving and having the leftovers from the previous months kit still to hand.  Why not join in with this challenge and use both March and Aprils Kits?!

Lets take a look at some of Denise’s fun crreations.

She’s the wild child on the team : )

We’d love to see you release your inner wild child too and join in. This is a ‘just for fun’ challenge and is for your fun and inspiration, maybe the excuse to try something new. The challenge will run until May 13th 10pm EST. A winner will be picked and announced on the blog here.   Please upload your work here or visit our message board here to play and join in with the challenge chatter. You don’t have to have a Cocoa Daisy Kit to join in. I’ve kickstarted us with my take on Denise’s style.

And now time to announce the winner to the March ‘Pleased to Meet You’ challenge.

Congratulations to AnneP. We just loved Anne’s take on Diana’s beautiful style and sketch. I’m sure you’ll agree that this is one very stunning LO. You can see more of Anne’s beautiful work on her blog here.

Thank you to everyone who played along last month and well done to our winner AnneP.

Happy Scrapping!!

Life either got very busy with spring breaks and Easter for many Daisies the past couple of weeks, otherwise this challenge was a bit tricker than some, because there were only 4 of you who submitted pages. A big thank you to those who did play along! I thought you might enjoy seeing each entry and how different the same challenge turned out in each scrapper’s style as a result. I gave them each a number- from 1 to 4- according to how they were posted for this challenge. Then I went to random number generator which selected a winner and it turned out to be #1…Terry B! She won a $10 coupon to be used in the Daisy Boutique…yay!

1. Downhill by Terry B.

2. You’re a Sweetie Pie by April W.

3. 3 Amigos by Peggy K.

4. Fun by Sherry C.

Congratulations to Terry and I hope that you all had fun scrapping this designer challenge! To the rest of you reading, maybe you will be inspired to play along with the next challenge here at Cocoa Daisy. It will be coming soon!
