Red Card Competition

Hi All.

I am finally back with the entries to the challenge that I set for my customers in my monthly newsletter. I decided last month that I would start a monthly challenge and the winner will receive a small prize :)

For June, I set the theme of ‘red’ as it was Red Nose Day on June 24th. I had five entries sent in. They were from Brooke, Courtney, Frances, Laura and Chris. Here they are;

There are elements on all these cards that I love. From Frances’ simple layout with embossed stamping, to Laura’s great use of pleated ribbon and the greeting on the inside of the a card (with a punched hole to see it!), Courtney’s great use of the Manhattan Flowers embossing folder, bling and punches, to Chris’ use of DSP, the red glitter and scalloped edge and Brooke’s fantastic combination of silver embossing, buttons and ribbons.

I didn’t think it would be so hard to choose a winner. But I had to. After much deliberation, the winner is……….

LAURA

Congrats Laura. As it was the first month for the challenge, the other girls will also be receiving a small prize for joining in.

In other news, I have been busy organising and running some classes. On Saturday morning, I taught a class focused on the Medallion stamp set and the baby wipe technique. Then Saturday afternoon we had a monthly stamp club meeting and I showed the ladies some different watercolouring techniques and stamping on candles. I will hopefully have those projects photographed soon so I can share what we made.

I have a couple of Stamp-a-Stacks this weekend and then a class coming up in a couple of weeks showcasing the Strength and Hope stamp set. I still have a couple of places left in the Strength and Hope class so if you would like to come along, please email me (funksta_nicki@yahoo.com.au) for more information. I’d love to have you join us :) Here is a sneak peek of the S & H cards for you to see (and to entice you!);

Thanks for stopping by and I will hopefully be back really soon :)
