We’re so excited to have All Dressed Up as our sponsor this month, YAY! All Dressed Up is sponsoring our main challenge prize and also provided the lovely digi image the PD CDT ladies used on their projects today!

PRIZE
The main challenge Winner wins 2 images of their choice from the All Dressed Up Etsy shop!

This month's theme is In the Garden with the optional twist to include a Dragonfly!

We challenge you to create anything you want from cards to 3D projects, using rubber stamps or digis, cute or scary and everything in between following this month’s In the Garden challenge theme which can be anything garden related really! Enter your In the Garden projects in the Inlinkz link-up below following the challenge rules provided by June 24.

DRAGONFLY AWARD - OPTIONAL CHALLENGE TWIST

Every month our challenge has a fun optional twist. We challenge you to include a dragonfly in some way or form regardless of the challenge theme. Those who choose to rise to the Dragonfly Award challenge in the most unique way wins our coveted Dragonfly Award badge. Please put “DA” after your name in your entry description to indicate you’ve entered the challenge twist and make sure to mention how you included a dragonfly in your post.

All Dressed Up has a wonderful selection of whimsical digi stamps for you to see in their Etsy shop from sweet little girls to animals to digi papers and seasonal images too. All Dressed Up has a monthly Anything Goes Challenge you can play in so if you use one of their images on your Paper Dragonfly entry then don't forget you can also play in their June challenge too!

Paper Dragonfly’s Creative Design Team have made some wonderful In the Garden projects to inspire you using the lovely Little Gardner provided by All Dressed Up. I'm also delighted to introduce you to our two new CDT ladies, a big welcome to Erin and Nan!
