I'm VERY excited to share our picks for this month's "Cream of the Crop!"

I am having SO much fun exploring the Market Street Stamps galleries each month searching for creative, fun projects! SOOO inspirational! I love seeing the galleries grow and grow each month- thank you all for sharing your projects with us!

Before I share the winners, we would like to encourage everyone to join in on the fun! It's super easy to enter and you can enter as many times as you want! Show us your best work!

Thank you to ALL the wonderful designers that shared their project with us this month!

So..... here are three projects that caught our eye and stood out- well executed, creative, and inspiring!!

In no particular order, here are the three designers who are the "Cream of the Crop!"

KEVA BROWN

Oooohhhh... Keva created this BEAUTIFUL card using the Comforting Florals set and knocked our socks off! Pretty colors, pretty stamping, pretty water effects- overall PRETTY card! LOVE it, Keva!

Stop by Keva's blog and show her some love! There's A LOT of inspiration over there!!

Raven Baca

Raven always blows us away with her beautiful style and this month was no different! This project SCREAMS Raven and lets her style shine! We love the pops of color and, of course, the beautiful message created with the Hippie Chic set! Great project, Raven!

Make sure you stop by Raven's blog for some inspiration! She's one talented girl!

Love 4 Stamps

Lisa Petrella

I stumbled upon this super sweet card in our flickr group and KNEW that it had to be showcased! Lisa really showcased the cow from the For All It's Worth set and made her come to life! Love the color palette she chose, love that super proud looking cow, LOVE the sentiment she created, and the overall design is flawless! Great job, Lisa!

Run over and visit Lisa's blog- she's got a ton of beautiful projects for you to browse!
