And the winner is...

The Stampin' Fanatic Challenge for February is over.

The winner is Sarah! (Picked by Random.org) Congrats! I'll be sending you a special package within the next couple weeks! Enjoy!!

I'm going to take a hiatus from the challenges this month- Instead I am going to do lots of promos and try to book some workshops or open houses. With the end of Sale-A-Bration and the Occasions Mini out, hopefully some of you will want to get together!! Also... I am going to highlight more cards, showcase special techniques, and issues challenges to MYSELF from my favorite site for inspiration, Splitcoaststampers.com.

Check back often for more posts, recipes for the cards I've made, and to see just what challenges I'm competing in!

This card: 5x5 card using Real Red CS (cardstock); Summer Picnic DP(Designer Paper) on top a piece of Whisper White CS. I used the ticket corner punch to highlight the change in colors. Rub-On sentiment from A Perfect Day; Real Red 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon tied in a knot to complete the piece. Apple from Tart & Tangy stamped in Real Red on scratch paper once, then rolled onto Real Red again for an outline. Then placed on a 1 1/4" circle, backgrounded by a 1 3/8" circle in Real Red, and then placed on a Scallop Circle Punch with Summer Picnic DP. I punched 1/16" circles all around the scallop to change the look. Then, I placed dimensionals on the back side to raise the apple.
