Bi-Weekly Challenge #2 Winner, DT Call, and VIGNETTE Clear Stamps Preview

Thank you to everyone who entered their projects to our 2nd bi-weekly challenge. Like the previous challenge, DH and I deliberated for some time as we thought all the entries were really good!

Ornate Autumn Butterflies Card by SmilynStef
We thought SmilynStef’s card was gorgeous — from the embossing to the
cut-out butterfly, color combo, pearl accents, and sentiment.
Congratulations, SmilynStef! Please grab your winner badge below to display on your blog!

Grungy Christmas Card by Sandie
We loved Sandie’s modern, trendy take on the sketch and
her use of non-traditional Christmas colors.

Thank you again to everyone who participated in our bi-weekly challenge. Our next bi-weekly challenge will be in January 2014 — once we have a few ladies join Nonni and me in the STAMPlorations design team. If you’d like to be part of the STAMPlorations DT, applying is super-simple: create any paper craft project that fits our current monthly challenge and enter it there! As a DT member, you’ll receive samples of upcoming stamps in the STAMPlorations line. 

And starting next week, 9 new clear stamp sets in the VIGNETTE Series will be available on the STAMPlorations shop and Etsy shop. These stamps are perfect for creating CAS and one layer cards, as well as a variety of paper crafts.

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
