Peachy Keen Stamps :: Sketch Challenge 66

Hello, and Happy Tuesday!

Did everyone Stateside enjoy their Thanksgiving? We had a fabulous, relaxing day here, and it was really tough for me to get back into the post-Thanksgiving groove yesterday!

You guys did an incredible job on the last challenge, we are so thrilled to see you back here each week. I'm so excited to announce our TOP 3 today!

-----------------------------

-----------------------------

Everyone did such a great job, it was hard to choose just three!

But, without further ado, here are the TOP 3 from our last challenge:

Our two runner ups will receive a "TOP 3" badge for their blog!

Michelle

Jeanne

And our winner is.....

Heather!!

Her mix of pattern papers and perfect paper piecing really made her card stand out!

Love the way she cropped the sweet birthday girl, too!

Congratulations, ladies, I will be contacting each of you later today with your blinkie for your blog,
and Heather, I will be emailing your $20.00 gift certificate later today, also! :)
