Hear Ye! hear Ye! (#2)

Soooo it was supposed to be all under wraps and secret BUT seeing as the few people who already knew have invited a few other people and so on and so forth, and people are starting to all catch on, I might as well let the cat out of the bag...

Songbirds is now at Ning!
Yep, we've caught up with the new fandangled technology...
I've attempted to build a passable site (and it's looking a bit fab, i do beleive)...
and we now have a gallery, a forum, groups etc!
We will be holding a launch party next Friday and Saturday with giveaways and spot challenges so kick off the excitement before our first regular challenge on the 1st of July!
It's the next generation of Songbird Scraps and I think if you check it out, you'll might be pleasantly suprised!

We will also have a special guest designed for the month of July!

Junes challenge will be finished up here at the blog and I will post the first July challenge here just to give you a bit of time to get the hang of the new site, but after that, you'll need to join up at our new site in order to join in...

So head on over to:

and check out the new scene!

SO Exciting!

Hope to see you there!

A Brand New Month!

Well ladies, entries are closed and we have started a brand new month!

And in honour of ANZAC Day, we here at Songbirds are dedicating April to Australian Music!

All of this months songs have been written by homegrown talent, and judging by how excited the DT girls were about them, they are sure to inspire!

And for those international players - Dont worry! We chose lyrics that can be used to inspire anyone and anything!

To help us celebrate Australia month, please make welcome our first guest designer, Alyssa Vollman...

Alyssa has provided a gorgeous example for the first April challenge and will be back again with to help inspire you for the second challenge as well!

She applied for our CT back when we were running application and only just missed out, so we asked her back to help us out this month!

I can hear you saying "Enough of the jibber jabber Skye, give us the lyrics!", so I better get on with it!

The first lyrics for April are:

Pete Murray – Opportunity…

Don't be scared of what you cannot see

Your only fear is possibility

Never wonder what the hell went wrong

Your second chance may never come along

Hold on now your exits here

It's waiting just for you

Don't pause too long

It's fading nowIt's ending all too soon you'll see

Hunters and Collectors - Throw Your Arms Around Me...

I dreamed of you at night time

And I watched you in your sleep

I met you in high places

I touched your head and touched your feet

So if you disappear out of view

You know I will never say goodbye

And though I try to forget it

You will make me call your name

And I'll shout it to the blue summer sky

And the AMAZING DT Examples:

Don't be Scared - By Alyssa Vollman

Possibility - By Peggy

Possibility - By Skye

And I Watched You In Your Sleep - By Jane

Throw Your Arms Around Me - By Kirsti

Opportunity - By Chic

As you can see, we were all pretty fond of the 'Possibility' theme this month!

This months prize is a set of the newly released Mumma Bushka papers and Babushka doll mini album from Kaisercraft!

So get to it ladies!
We always love seeing what you create and can't wait to see what this month brings!

Take care and Happy Scrapping!
xxoo
