I hope everyone had a great time sharing their projects with us in July.  Thanks to all for joining in our contest, there were SO many beautiful creations it was so very hard for the DT to pick the favorites this month. A very special thanks to  Sherri Baldy for providing the prize this month and for the gorgeous stamps that she gave the design team for their creations.

Here's a badge for our winner this month

 
The winner this month  is:
 

 


  Why do you have 72 entries, there's only 60 participants?  
Here's how the drawing works, double entries were given this month if you used a Sherri Baldy image.  If you did, your extra entry was added at the BACK of the list. For example if you were entry #1 using, your entries for the drawing would be numbers 1 and 61. If the second card using a Sherri Baldy image was the 10th card in our challenge the drawing numbers would be 10 and 62.  Double entries are simply added again to the end of the list in the order they were acquired.
 
Congratulations!  The winner should please contact Holley (htondre@aol.com) with the names of the stamps she would like.  Please grab the Winner Badge to share on your blog and thanks so much for joining our challenge this month.  We look forward to seeing more creations from you and all the other participants
