PP284 Challenge Winners

Hello Stamping Friends!  WOW!  I was amazed at all the beautiful projects this week!  I read numerous comments that lots of layers are difficult for many, but you would never know it by looking at your creations.  It was very difficult to choose one card!  

But before we get to my choice for Headliner, lets see what caught the eye of the design team:

And now, my choice for the Headliner:



Crystal Komara

Crystal's card caught my eye at the beginning of the week.  I kept coming back to it and knew it was the one!  The mix of patterns, fancy cowboy boots, and polka dots made me smile!  This card made me want to boot scoot boogie to a country song.  CONGRATULATIONS Crystal,  YOU are my headliner this week!  

Congratulations to all our winners, please pick up your badges here.  We hope you come back tomorrow for a fun theme challenge from Sandy!

PP283 Challenge Winners


Hi everyone! What an amazing gallery this week: lots of balloons, but also butterflies, birds and aeroplanes all heading skyward. But before we get to my choice for Headliner, lets see what caught the eye of the design team:

And now, my choice for the Headliner:



Go Get Carried Away card-designed by Lori Tecler/Inking Aloud-stamps and dies from Mama Elephant

Lori Tecler


So many beautiful cards to choose from, but Lori's little boy being carried up by his enormous red balloon just spoke to me this week! Everything from the relative size of the balloon, the stitched cloud, perfect colouring and a sentiment that totally summed up the essence of my challenge - congratulations Lori for being my headliner this week!

PP281 Challenge Winners

Hi everyone!  Thanks so much the your sweet cat and dog creations you shared with us last week!  I got lots of positive comments on the challenge and it was really difficult to choose just one!  

But before we get to my choice for Headliner, lets see what caught the eye of the design team:


And now, my choice for the Headliner:



Laurie U



I enlisted Cassidy's help in picking out my winner; it was just too difficult to do it alone!  We narrowed it down to a couple of choices, but in the end, Laurie's card with those sweet little white pups was declared her favorite!  I liked it too, especially with that wonderful pink gingham in the background and the fun sketch!  Congrats, Laurie, on being my Headliner this week!

Congratulations to all our winners, please pick up your badges here.  We hope you come back tomorrow for a happy color challenge from Laurie!
