This week our song has been sung by many artists. The version we are featuring is Jimmy Cliff's. Not only did our design team throw some extra awesomeness into their creations for you, but if you scroll past that you will see that our fabulous sponsor this week had some of their own DT members participate too!!!
Michelle's Scrapbooking & More is the home of The Pixie Cottage Stamps. In addition we also offer a wide variety of patterned paper, Copics, Spellbinders, and many other brands of stamps.

I can see clearly now the rain is gone I can see all obstacles in my way Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind It's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day It's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day
Oh yes, I can make it now the pain is gone All of the bad feelings have disappeared Here is the rainbow I've been praying for It's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day
Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies Real, real, real, real bright, bright sunshinin' day Yeah, hey, it's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day
Our wonderful sponsor this week was our very own Angela, aka ToucanScraps. She has donated 6 digi 8x8 papers to one very lucky winner.
Our winner this week is Sharm. She wowed our DT with her unique take on this week's song with this adorable card.
Please contact me at scrapitwithasong(at)yahoo(dot)com so I can arrange for your digi pack. Thanks so much to all the ladies who played along this week. The rest of the top 5 are:
First of all, so sorry for the delay ladies. I went on vacation and blogger flipped out a little bit and lost my saved blogs including the one I had set up to add winners to. Our generous sponsor last week was Sew Many Cards. They offered the winner FIVE free digi images from their collection.
This week we have a fun song for you!!! With all the scrapable lines and themes throughout there may be no two creations alike, but that's what will make this week awesome!!!
Our sponsor this week is our very own DT member Angela. Angela, aka Toucan Scraps, designs digital scrapbooking and craft printable kits.

This week's DT entries to brighten your creativity:
You will have until high noon, Sunday June 27th to enter this week's challenge. If I can figure out how to extend that since it's started a day late, I will update this.
I set up this week's challenge to autopost and went on vacation. Not only did it not post (obviously...right??? LOL) it seems to have disappeared right off of blogger. When I get home in the AM I will fix it. Sorry everyone...it's coming though. Along with last week's winners which was going to be late anyway with me being gone, but thought I'd throw that in there.
This song is just ooozing with sweetness, so I hope we some lovely layouts and cards this week. Though feel free to mix it up and interpret the lyrics any way they inspire you!!!
This week is being sponsored again by the adorable Sew Many Cards!!!
My name is Angela and I own Sew Many Cards. I have a husband, an almost 10year old daughter, a two year old son, and a dog/puppy: Hershey. The images of Sew Many Cards came from a dream that my husband had of a group of animals that were "SEWN Together" with patches and stitching, hence the name, which he also came up with. You will find that every image in the Sew Many Cards collection has patches and stitching, even the ones that are not animals. I love to draw and almost every image is either an inspiration from my family or a request from my great customers and design team, so please ask if you need something specific or would like to request something be made. You can contact me at angela@sewmanycards.com
They have offered up to the winner of this week's challenge FIVE digi images from their shop. I can't wait to see what you all create :)

Lying here with you, listening to the rain Smile just to see the smile upon your face These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive And these are the moments I'll remember all my life I've found all I've waited for and I could not ask for more
Looking in your eyes,seeing all I need Everything you are is everything in me These are the moments, I know heaven must exist And these are the moments I know all I need is this I've found all I've waited for, yeah, and I could not ask for more
I could not ask for more than this time together I could not ask for more than this time with you And every prayer has been answered Every dream I've had's come true Yeah, right here in this moment Is right where I'm meant to be Here with you here with me, Yeah
