Hello!

Steph here to announce our February Cream of the Crop!

Once again I am BLOWN AWAY by the creativity in our galleries! You guys are so super creative and inspiring- I love taking time out to browse and soak it all in!
 There are TONS of places to find MSS inspiration- you can find some here:

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

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!"


LORI TECLER

Lori LOVES her Market Street Stamps and not a month goes by that we're not in awe of her beautiful projects! She created this super cute card using the Pawprints on our Hearts set and even added her own little spin on the sentiment! The front of the card reads, "They come into our lives, leave pawprints on our hearts," and the inside of the card reads, "and on your floors and furniture, too!" TOO CUTE, LORI! 



Stop by Lori's blog for TONS of great inspiration!




KAREN BAKER

Karen uploaded this AMAZING card to our flickr gallery and I was SOOO impressed by how she made it! She used the Faith In You set and a fun Copic technique to create this beautifully encouraging card! She added interesting shading and color to the vase by coloring with Copics on the back of the paper! SO COOL!


Make sure you stop by Karen's blog and show her some love- her designs are AMAZING!




DENISE JANUARY

Denise used Grace, the sentiment from Compass, and a pretty flower from the January Market Fresh Kit LOVE BIRDS to make this beautiful shabby chic creation! I LOVE the colors she used on this card- so soft and pretty! 


Stop by Denise's blog to see even more beauty! Her style is just amazing... sigh....
