Julie has used a beautiful vintage style stamp from LaBlanche (coming soon to Creative Accents) together with paper by Magenta. The image was coloured with Distress Ink over a clear embossed stamp. Several of the flowers were sprayed with a new Moon Shadow Mist from Lindy's Stamp Gang. Here's a close up:

January Winner!

I'm back (a bit later than I intended) to share with you who our random winner was from our January Challenge... I was hoping to have my challenge project to share with you, but I had no idea that my trip to CHA had taken so much out of me!  I came home feeling pretty good, on a bit of a high from seeing so many amazing samples, talented designers and fabulous products... I should have known that as soon as I slowed down I would be as tired as my credit card is after all that ordering! ;) 

Anywho, I will be back with more inspiration for you, but today I'll keep it short and sweet and let ya know our winner.
According to random.org, our winner is...

L- Layers

V- Vintage
E- Embellishments
 
and we'd LOVE to hear from you if you are interested in joining our Design Team- we're looking for full time and guest members to join us!
