Hi, Nancy here, back to announce the winners of last week’s Photo Card Challenge. Oh my, what a hard choice. I absolutely love all your creative uses of photos combined with stamping.

The Fresh Face winner in the Photo Card Challenge is perdie1. What a great Halloween card. I love the use of color and shape to emphasize the web photo, and yes it is a pretty scary thing to have in your back yard.

Our prize for the Digital category goes to scrapperjjb. Her beautiful card is truly one-of-a-kind and is sure to be treasured by her friend.

Take a look at the unique gatefold presentation…

In First Place we have Deirdre - Irl. A card with an added gift (bookmark)…wonderful! The photo selection of the boys at the park is so much fun; we grandmothers can appreciate this card. Who wouldn’t love to see those adorable boys. The flourish shape complements the shapes of the close up photos above it.

Alice W. (Aliceh83) is our Second Place winner this week. I loved this idea. I guess I will be hauling some of my stuffed animal collection to my favorite restaurant too. Karen is correct…I smiled when I saw this entry and read the copy.

Coming in Third Place is juicyflavor with an exquisite card featuring her wedding photos. The techniques and details on this card are just perfect for the photos.

And finally, an Honorable Mention goes to stampingmathilda. This creative “get well soup” shaker card contains alphabet noodles for a fun touch. What a great way to show you care.

Please email us at the address in blog sidebar with your name/address/phone number and we’ll arrange for your prizes to be sent.

Let’s also have a look at what the Hero Hostesses came up with for the Photo Card Challenge last week. (Click on any circle for a larger view.)

Projects by Kathy Racoosin, Lin Brandyberry, Tracey Kuzniak, Cathy Andronicou, Virginia Lu, Tiffany Ervin, Sarah Moerman, Lucy Abrams.

Thank you all for your creative use of Hero Arts stamps and your special photos. I hope I remember how many different ways there are to combine photos and stamping when it comes time to start my holiday cards… On second thought, I should start them now so I won’t forget all your beautiful ideas. Thank you for taking time to enter our contest.
