PP806 Challenge Winners

Happy Saturday, Stampers! Ann here! I want to thank everyone who participated in my theme challenge, "Nature's Landscapes".  From wheat fields and forests to mountains and snow, our gallery was filled with such beautiful cards. What fun we had in selecting our winners!

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

A. Rose - Sundaystamper Papercrafts

Michele - I Card Everyone 

Amy - Stamp With Amy K

And now for my Headliner:

Windy Ellard - Windy's Wonderful Creations

Windy's card illustrates how a simple design paired with beautiful paper results in an absolutely stunning card. The embossed frame adds rich texture, while its Pumpkin Pie color brings out the autumnal colors of the designer paper.  More texture is added by the twine bow, which draws the eye right to the copper embossed sentiment. What an amazing card!  Congratulations on being my Headliner, Windy!

Congratulations to all of the winners!  Be sure to pick up your badges here.  

Please join us tomorrow for a color challenge from the amazing Jan. 

Until then, happy stamping!

PP806 - A Theme Challenge from Ann

Hey, Stampers!  It's Ann here with a new theme challenge. Before we get into the details, I'd like to thank everyone who participated in Jaydee's sketch challenge. What wonderful cards you all created using Jaydee's fabulous sketch. I know it is one I will be using again. 

Now on to this week's challenge. How about celebrating Mother Nature in all her glory with a theme of "Nature's Landscapes"? Let's hike through forests filled with stately trees! Let's cast our gaze upon the relaxing waterfronts of oceans and lakes, rivers and streams.  Let's behold the majesty of the mountains.  Let's feel the shimmering heat of the desert or the icy nip of freshly fallen snow. Whatever landscape inspires you, we can't wait to see what YOU create! But first, be sure to check out what the Design Team has created to spark your imagination.

PP805 Challenge Winners

Happy Saturday.

WOW!  What a wonderful gallery this week.  Every week our players make it difficult to choose our winners but, for some reason, this week was particularly hard.  A huge thanks to all of you who played along and shared your creations.  Before we get to our HEADLINER, let's take a look. at what caught the eye of our design team:

And now to our HEADLINER.  I have to admit I would have chosen several winners this week if the rules would let me.  I went backwards and forwards on so many different cards.  In the end, I just couldn't resist a little tiny mouse pulling his present on a sled wearing a bright yellow jersey.  That silly little mouse with his cute face brought me back time and again.  I also love the way TK matched the color of his jumper and the ribbon to the background paper.  She did the same with the red background layer and the sentiment color.  Such a fun card.  Congrats TK your little mouse is our HEADLINER for this week :-)

PP805 - A Sketch Challenge from Jaydee

Happy Sunday.

A huge shout out to all of you who played along with Christy's CAS bear challenge.  We loved seeing all those fuzzy creatures in our gallery last week.  Congrats to our winners.

It's sketch week this week and a perfect opportunity to bring out those wonderful patterned papers, embossing folders or press plates.  It's a sketch with lots of layers, too.

                                    

As always our design team have some fabulous inspiration for you:

PP804 Challenge Winners

Happy Saturday, crafty compatriots!  Christy here with the winners for last week's CAS bear challenge.  I hope you all had a good time with the challenge as I loved looking through all the wonderful cards in our gallery!  I love the variety of teddy bears, polar bears, Pooh bears and more.  We had our work cut out for us choosing just a few favorites, that's for sure.  Here's what caught the eye of our design team:

Congratulations to our Cut Above winners, and now for my Headliner:

Rachel D

I love this bear's adorable bee sweater and the mug with the coordinating itty-bitty bee on it!  Add in a punny sentiment and I couldn't resist naming Rachel my winner this week.  Her card is definitely the bees knees!

Congratulations to all our winners and don't forget to pick up your badges HERE.  We'll see you back here tomorrow when Jaydee brings us a brand new challenge!

PP804 - A Clean-and-Simple Challenge from Christy

Howdy, stampers!  Christy here and thank you to everyone who played along with LeAnne's color challenge last week, we had a beautiful gallery!  It's time now for our monthly CAS challenge, and I've picked a theme that I hope you'll like:

There are lots of different types of bears and I'd wager you have a few in your crafting stash!  I want to see your cards featuring bears, whether it's teddy or gummy, grizzly or polar, panda or koala (technically not a bear, but bear-shaped and thus acceptable for today's challenge), Silly Old or Care.  Don't forget to keep it CAS, and check out what the design team has made for your inspiration.
