Congratulations, Helene!  Sandy will be contacting with the info you need to claim your prize!

Well, it's almost Father's Day!  Are you ready?  If not, our Father Digital Download can be used to make some really cute cards really fast!  Take a look at this cute card from DT Member Sheila.  I just love the texture that the burlap background adds to our stylish steampunk puppy!

As someone who struggles with coloring an image, I'm always blown away by the beautiful coloring that Michele adds to her projects!  Just look at the gorgeous hens in this card she made using our Farm Chicks Digital Art Stamps!  You almost feel as though you could reach out and touch those brilliant feathers! And that gingham bow and flower just pop off the card front!

I love a blue and white card just about any time of the year, but in the summertime, I think they are especially glorious!  This beauty from Diane makes me think of a blue sky filled with puffy white clouds.  I just love the way she used our Birds and Blossoms Digital Vintage Creative Scraps.  So sweet! And the sweet background paper is from out Retro Kitchen Digital Kit.

Sheila has a fabulous new digital layout on her blog!  She used our Sew Creative CD and the beautiful Birds and Blooms Digital Paper Kit to capture memories from a special mother/daughter trip to NYC.

Ginny combined papers from our Barber Shop Kit, Thanksgiving Kit and Vintage Typography CD to make a fabulous digital layout honoring her son's achievements in Boy Scouts.  I love that pocket watch, how about you?

Teresa created a shabbylicious trio of cards using our fabulous Creating with Vintage Typography CD.  She added images from our Little Blessings Creative Scraps which are on sale for just $1.95 each in our online store.  I love the color palette and beautiful ribbons she used!

It has been soooo hot here in North Carolina!  Today it's just under 100 degrees!  It's great weather for staying inside and getting my craft on!   I'd love to hear from you!  What have you been creating?  I hope you'll take a minute to visit the design team blogs, and to let us know what you've been working on.  Sandy has some great new collections in the works, and I'll be back soon with more inspiration for you.
Until then, on behalf of Sandy Redburn, I wish you joy and creativity!
