Oh Man was this hard.  Wow, you all ROCK!!  What I did is I went through each and everyone and notated the ones you all made a lot of comments on, then picked from those.  This helped me shed the guilt because otherwise, I’d certainly pick everyone.

I’ll start off with the Fresh Face Winner. Shemainesmith made this wonderful card and did something completely different with the main image, she cut it in a circle.  I Love her details on the button strings.  Shemainesmith will receive a $50.00 Hero Arts shopping spree and a 2009 Catalog. Way to GO!!

Okay, next is my pick for First Place…the drum roll please…winning a $50.00 Hero Arts shopping spree and 2009 catalog…goes to Scrapperjjb…I can’t even begin to write in words my reaction when I first saw this card.  It is the cutest thing ever! Love your pocket!

And this is the frog outside the pocket…toooooo cute!!

Second place, winning a $25.00 shopping spree and a 2009 catalog is Jenink for her adorable itty bitty sewn pocket with the birds nest.  Love it!!!  You can click on her name to see the message she hid inside.

And third place winning a $15.00 shopping spree and 2009 catalog goes out to Julieloulou, love her clean style pocket card. What a great color combination!!

And for our Scrapbooking catagory, (winning a $50.00 shopping spree and 2009 catalog) I chose Paper Girl’s layout because of her cute upside down tag pockets.  Very nice design sense!

And I can’t stop there.  Here are some great Honorable mentions that I could NOT pass up.  They will also be receiving prizes!

Pia Overgaard made this scrumptious felt pocket, so cute!

 And Anette.Hjepaarsen made a gorgeous colored corner pocket.

And finally, I chose Virginia L for her wonderful Ice cream treat, that’s a great idea!

Please send us an email and state your prize category in the subject line and we’ll get your goodies out to you right away.  Congratulations everyone!! I thoroughly enjoyed spending a week of pockets with you all!  Thanks for joining the challenge.

Until next time, Enjoy!
