Well, I did not win this award but I had so much fun creating my projects. Also I think I probably had more than my fair share of awards lately (New Demonstrator Starter Kit Contest, Stampin' Up! demonstrator magazine March 2011 Art Contest "mama & papa", Milwaukee Regional Workshop Wow, Stampin' Connection Contest Ideas 2012), I really can't complain.
The winners have officially been announced (congratulations to all of them!!!) so I can start posting my projects. Let's start with the first card:
