It's Winner Time!

Our April challenge is on now!
We'd be OVER THE RAINBOW
if you played along!  
(P.S. There's a design team call too!)

A small but very talented group of cardmakers strolled the red carpet last month for our AT THE MOVIES challenge! Thank you to everyone who played along... you made our decisions so difficult!
Accepting the award for best performance by a NICE cardmaker...  ELIZABETH! Here's a look at her scene-stealing Gone with the Wind card: 


We were blown away (get it? lol) by Elizabeth's sponged sky and silhouette images, so evocative of the movie. 
Accepting the award for best performance by a NAUGHTY cardmaker... JANE! Here's Jane's remake of a classic scene from the movie Ghost:


All the Troublemakers found this card hilarious! Which may say something about us, I suppose. ;)
Ladies, here are your Oscars, I mean badges! And thank you again to everyone who joined. Please join us again this month for our OVER THE RAINBOW challenge!

Time for Winners!

Naughty or Nice Challenges is
At the Movies this month! 

Hope everyone is enjoying this first weekend in March! After much debate, the Troublemakers have selected winners for our February challenge, SEE RED. What a great array of entries last month! And now, drumroll, please:

NICE WINNER: EMMA!

Here's another look at Emma's terrific card...



Wine is always nice, of course, but we also love Emma's shaped card design and pops of red in just the right places.

NAUGHTY WINNER: JANE!

Here is Jane's card, which the Troublemakers have agreed definitely qualifies for the naughty list...


We love the clever spin Jane puts on these stamps, not to mention her cheeky sentiment.
Emma and Jane, here are your badges!



Thanks to everyone who played along with us! Our current challenge, At the Movies, is now showing at this location until March 25th. Hope you'll join the cast!

Naughty or Nice Challenge #25: At The Movies

Hello out there in Blogland!

Sara here to share this month's challenge with you. Like most of you, the troublemakers enjoy relaxing with a good movie.  February celebrated huge achievements in the actors' lives with the GRAMMYs and the Academy Awards, but February is over and now March is time for US to celebrate and honor some that we love! There have been a number of big box office hits (and flops) over the years and it's a perfect time to get inspired with our "At the Movies" theme!


Check out the troublemaker's take and see if you can guess what inspired their creations.







and a second one from Lindsey





Don't forget that you have until March 25 to join us in the challenge! Link up and whether naughty or nice, show us what you've got!
