I’m so sad that this is the last day for my shapes, I wish I could go on for another week or two. I’ve had so much fun, especially looking through the Flickr pool at all the unbelievable entries. Wow, you all ROCK!!! I have to say, you have really accepted this challenge with all your heart, and I have no idea how I’m going to pick a few winners among so many wonderful ideas.  I’m in AWE!!

Okay, I’ve got much more to share with you…let’s get started!

I was recently introduced to Kristina Werner, she’s an incredible designer and 2 Peas Garden Girl. She is also known for her fabulous color challenges on her blog. We put our heads together and came up with a dual challenge…shape and color!

“Just something I found completely awesome… When you stamp the Woodgrain Pattern stamp in brown ink on Kraft cardstock, it really does look like real wood. I LOVED it! I’m going to have to do a ton more of that. :)”

This weekend, Hero Arts is debuting in Paris at a trade show. Our very own Todd Mullins has flown over to properly greet the Parisians. From across the Atlantic we have Gaëlle Fauglas from France, who is an awesome designer and helped make samples for display in the booth over there.  She was kind enough to play by offering her adorable bird shaped card.
