So many wonderful entries for this challenge! Thank you to all who joined us! I loved all the details and layers in Sammy's card. Love the colors on her card.  Congrats Sammy! Thanks for joining us and hope you will play again. 

Joan's Pick:
Asmah @ Qinaahana Arts and Crafts

It was difficult to pick a favourite this week - so many wonderful entries. But my heart belongs to butterflies and flowers and I loved everything about Asmah's card - all the distressing, the colours and how the butterflies are popping off the page.  Congratulations, Asmah.

Brenda's Pick:
Stephanie @ Steph's Shoebox


The bright and cheery colours Stephanie used make me happy indeed! Fabulous choice of patterns, topped off with that awesome ribbon, makes a fantastic card. Congrats, Brenda.

Okay do I even have to say why I love this card??? TOO STINKING CUTE!!! I am so trying to get into a Spring frame of mind and this little card totally took me there - Love the chick, love the egg balloons, LOVE the fun colours - Awesome job Lisa!!! Congrats :)


Marie's Pick:
Hansi @ Quilting With Paper


There are so many wonderful things about Hansi's card--the delicate butterfly, scalloped and beaded trim, beautiful papers, sponged edges that caught my eye. (There is a masculine card done with this sketch on her blog post that is terrific too!)  Congratulations, Hansi, on being a Sunday Stamps Top Pick--don't forget to grab your Top Pick button for your blog from the sidebar.

Top Picks for SSC69!

Wow!!! What a fantastic turnout for Challenge #69.. Wasn't that a great color combo! We loved seeing all of your projects... trying to narrow them down was very hard.

Kathya's Pick:
Yapha @ Rubber Stamping & Card Making with Yapha

I love the hardwood background and all the embellished flowers! The colors really pop! Congrats Yapha!


Joan's Pick:
Ann @ Ann's Cards

I like Ann's clean and simple look, but I especially love how she created a square from pearls - a unique take on four squares. Bravo Ann!

Brenda's Pick:
Lisa @ Snowy Moose Creations


I just love the paper pieced vases Lisa created, with their bright yellow blossoms. And the white doodle border sets the whole thing off perfectly. Congrats Lisa!


Hayley's Pick:
Denise @ Denise's Blog

I was really drawn to the lovely background Denise created for her sweet flowers. Also loved the way her whole focal image was framed, and who does not LOVE a sweet little button and banner. A winner for me! Congrats Denise!


Marie's Pick:
Franzi


I love the beautiful sponged background with varying tones of yellow and green and the vellum pinwheel.  The circle cutout with twine wrapped around it created a very interesting focal point for me.  Congratulations, Franzi--don't forget to grab a copy of the Top Picks Badge for your blog!
