PP724 Challenge Winners
Hello, stampers! LeAnne here! What a lovely selection of cards were in the gallery this week, showcasing those pretty spring colors! Before we get to my Headliner, let's see what choices the DT made for their favorite Cut Aboves:
And since we had a tie for third place, I am sharing both winners!
And now to my Headliner:
I enjoyed all the florals in the gallery, but I really thought Amanda's heart-felt birthday card was super fun and creative! I love the three panels behind her embossed heart, and that birthday cake was colored perfectly! Cute embellishments finished it off to a "T"! Congratulations, Amanda, you're our Headliner this week! And congrats to all our winners! Be sure to pick up your badges here!
Please come back tomorrow for a new challenge from Jan!

PP723 Challenge Winners
Hi, Stampers! It's Ann! I want to thank everyone for playing in our theme challenge this week. Love was certainly in the air! There were so many fabulous cards gracing the gallery. The Design Team had our work cut out for us in picking out the winners. Before we get to my HEADLINER, let's see who was selected as our CUT ABOVES:
Please join us tomorrow for a delightful color challenge from the talented LeAnne.
Congratulations to all of our Cut Above winners! And now for my Headliner!
Windy's card caught my eye immediately. Arranging the die cut hearts into a butterfly shape was so creative. The trio of pink flowers in the middle was a lovely contrast to the red, while their red rhinestone centers provided just the right amount of bling. The sweet sentiment, stamped in red and offset to the side was the perfect finishing touch to this lovely card. Congratulations, Windy, on being my Headliner this week!
Once again, congratulations to all of our winners. Remember to pick up your badges here!

PP722 Challenge Winners
Hi Players,
Joanne here! I'd like to send a huge shout out to all of you who played along with our sketch challenge this week. It was wonderful to see your different interpretations of our layout.
As always, you made it hard for us to choose our winners - so much so, we have four cards instead of our usual three! Before we get to our HEADLINER the design team have voted the following three submissions as our CUT ABOVE cards this week.
Congratulations to our Cut Aboves. Now for my Headliner:
Michele Ferguson - I Card Everyone
Michele's little girl with her heart-shaped deely-bopper headband immediately caught my eye - what a cutie! Sweet and sassy peeking over her oversize HELLO sentiment, Michele's card is a great example of how a sketch can be stretched - literally. The proportions are different, but all of the elements of the layout are there - banner, layers and large focal sentiment. A great card Michele - congratulations on being my headliner this week!
I hope you will come back for our new challenge starting tomorrow. This week we have a timely theme chosen by our talented team member Ann.
