Hello and happy Monday! Wow! Another amazing week of submissions and we were so thrilled with how many of you played along! SO many gorgeous cards and so many non-traditional creations! It made it difficult for us to narrow it down...so this week we have one main winner, three top picks and some honourable mentions. Here we go!

Congratulations, Broni!

 

Broni's skunk card was SO non-traditional and fun! Just look at that amazing paper and the interesting design of her card! Bold, bright and totally non-traditional!

Winner for The Challenge and Meet a new Designer for The Challenge!

In one hour the celebration will begin! My little challenge on my blog called "The Challenge" will have a One Year Anniversary Celebration! I started the challenge for fun in March last year and it has turned into such a special challenge for me. I adore the team and the past designers who have joined me. Thank you so much, ladies! In one hour we will also have a new look at The Challenge! Here is the new graphic for our One Year Anniversary...

Before I get to the winners of The Challenge #27-I want to welcome another designer to my team. I was thrilled when she said yes! I love everything she creates and she is fun too! Bonus! Introducing Michele Ferguson from I Card Everyone. Welcome, Michele!

Michele Ferguson

I couldn't be more pleased, and thankful, to be invited to “play cards” as I call this craft, with these fabulous, talented ladies! 

I will celebrate my 1^st year of I Card Everyone blogging in May this year.  Little did I know I’d find a worldwide group of the most talented creative people whom I now consider my best friends – and life preservers!!  

I left my job as a trade shows manager with a dental products company to attend culinary school at age 50 – maybe the most fun I've ever had!!!  I occasionally still cater small events.

My best career choice of all?  I am now a SAHW [stay at home wife] to my very best friend, my husband of nearly 20 years, Mom to three grown/married kids, and “Grammy” to six.  Home –in my craft room- is truly where my heart is happiest.  

Now onto our winners for The Challenge #27

(I am using our new winner badges!)

Claire Broadwater

I could not resist Claire's pretty card! I love that she made a matching envelope too! The fussy cutting of the bike image and the amazing way she used the colours made my heart happy! I love this pretty and whimsical card! Congrats, Claire!

Thank you to everyone who played along at The Challenge! I am always amazed with how people interpret my sketches!! I love it! The winners are always hard to choose!

I just fell in LOVE with this amazing card! Look at the fun colours and the way she added accents! The word "Coffee" is her OWN handwriting! Awesome card, Becca!
