June winners

Morning Peeps, after a fabulous month with so many lovely entries it's time to announce our winners of the two rather special prizes.

As usual these have been selected by Random Org., and as per the request on the June challenge post only those entrants who have told us which prize they prefer have been entered into the draw. Sadly an awful lot of you didn't do that which is such a shame.

June - Anything Goes

Welcome to our June challenge, it's a bit of a special one as this month as we are seven years old so have two special prizes to be won and a theme that is nice and easy...................

********Anything Goes********

Normally we put all the entries into the draw but this month we are going to ask you to let us know which prize you prefer, this is because the Penny Black stamps are all wood mounted and we know that presents storage problems for some people. So we are asking all entrants this month to leave us a comment to tell us if they prefer the stamps or the die cutting machine...........we will only enter the people who have commented into the draw as we would not want to send these lovely stamps to someone who would not use them.

Here are the prizes:

Penny Black invite you to explore their creative world and see for yourself why their rubber stamps, stickers, beautiful papers for scrapbooking, cardmaking and stamp crafting are everyone’s favourites. Their products are designed to integrate style and colour for creating the best handicraft projects ever. If you would like to be one of the first to hear about new products from Penny Black please click here to join the free club, plus their Facebook is full of activity and news.

Tattered Lace is home to a range of beautifully delicate and detailed craft products, including the successful Tattered Lace Dies and Embossing Folders, designed by Stephanie Weightman.

Finally a note about our challenge rules: You can use any make of stamp and enter up to three times, but we must see hand stamping as the focal element of your artwork, it can be a stamped image/s, large sentiment or quote....... the one exception are Penny Black Stickeroos. But no digi images. Please note: If we do not comment on your entry it will be because it does not follow the theme, qualify under our rules, or because we are asked to sign in or provide additional data to comment on third party hosts such as Instagram, Facebook, Flickr, Slipcoast. We do not want to be rude but we do want to be fair to those who do follow the rules. 

Claudia is our first Guest Designer this month and has made two very different cards using the same stamp proving how versatile it is.................
