Challenge Results!


Thank you so much to Dawn, Maria, Lai-Yoke & Martha for all your sweet comments that are so encouraging to me & for entering my first challenge!  You all blew me away with your wonderful cards inspired by my dress.

Hubby reminded me that he got an A in his college art class (surely making him a qualified judge--we won't say what year that was--LOL!)  Here are his comments about the winning entry:  

  • Good use of the inspiration picture
  • Pleasant freedom of movement about it
  • Very artistic while being unstructured without any harshness
  • Appears to have abstract smiles making the sentiment perfect for the card.  


Yes, the winner is Dawn's lovely creation.  I think I know why so many challenges have a random drawing--I wouldn't have wanted to choose between these terrific cards!  Thanks, hubby!  Nice to get feedback from a non-cardmaker sometimes.

Here's the little giveaway going to Dawn--enjoy!  I have a small token of my appreciation for the rest of you, too.  I just need a Flickr mail with your addresses Martha & Maria, as I have Lai-Yoke's & Dawn's.  Hope you had fun--I sure did!
