PP314 Challenge Winners

Before we get to my choice for Headliner, let's see what caught the eye of the design team.

And now, for our Headliner:  

Stacey - Crafty Lil Mouse

                                                           

Stacey's trio of Santa cards are a winning combination of fun and festive! Expertly coloured, they really pop off the white panel and the bold patterned paper has a modern yet retro feel to it that compliments the Santas perfectly. Congratulations Stacey on being my headliner this week!

Toni

Frankie Helps Craft

Toni's card made me smile.  I love those little dogs in their stitched circles and sequins dotted in some of the others.  The composition of this card is fabulous and the little dogs so beautifully colored.  Popping the front piece off that blue background makes the dogs pop even more.  The white sentiment on the black card stock is the perfect finishing touch.  A gorgeous card.   Congratulations, Toni on being my Headliner this week.
