Challenge 152 - 'Let's feel it'

Another week with some superb entries thanks so much everyone and a great sponsor too in Joanna Sheen thanks again Joanna.

This week your challenge will be to use texture on your creations so come on 'Let's feel it' please.....
This challenge is again sponsored by ChiChi Memories who give lovely digi images for the winner and also to the DT to work with. Thanks guys.

I am afraid I have had to let the team down this week.... coming back from Bermuda I have had no time to create or craft at all... Blackberry problems amongst some of my problems aaahhh. Life and time have just got away from me this week sorry.

However the rest of the DT have created some lovely designs for you to see - thanks ladies for your hard work.

'I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance
I have never seen that dress you're wearing
Or the highlights in your head that catch your eyes I have been blind
The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek
There's nobody here, it's just you and me,
It's where I wanna be
But I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never forget, the way you look tonight '

and so on.......

Have fun and enjoy.
