Hello and Happy Thursday! We’ve got some winners to announce today but first we want to thank each and every one of you who participated in our Simple Holiday Stamping Challenge! It was a fabulous week of fabulous entries, and we thoroughly enjoyed click, click, clicking through the gallery, admiring your creations. (You can view them all HERE –so many wonderful interpretations of “simple”!) Now let’s take a look at some outstanding simple holiday cards!

Our Fresh Face prizes goes to Kim Dellow for this tree-mendous card that caught our attention with its great color combo! And her stitching? Perfect!

In the Digital category we have this gorgeous creation from scrapperjjb! She printed a tree from the Scribble Trees DigiKit and added some lovely finishing details. The result is a card that’s simply beautiful!

Now for our First Place winner — congratulations, kimberlykscrawford! Her snowflake card is breathtaking and is a wonderful example of simple stamping. So elegant with the silver accents!

The Second Place prize this week goes to Virginia L for her beautiful layered holiday design. Everything about this card says “classy”! We especially loved the touch of glitter on the pine bough.

In Third Place we have a simply sweet set of cards from sugarbuffet featuring reindeer set against a polka-dot background. Adorable proof that less is more…

But wait, there’s more — we’d like to recognize several outstanding Honorable Mention creations too!

We fell head over heels for this design from Lucille K — clean, crisp, fresh, and simply perfect!

Next, NinaB (Croatia) stamped a card so sweet, you can almost taste it! The ruffled ribbon detail is irresistible…

Another Honorable Mention goes to Sanne - Denmark for her beautiful scalloped square card. The added touch of gold makes the design extra special and really makes the trees stand out.

And finally, take a look at the simple elegance of Rosemary D’s pine bough design. We love the way she highlighted the ornament with the color block and the gems.

Way to go! Winners and honorable mentions, please email us your addresses and phone numbers with “Simple Holiday Winner” in the subject line and we’ll take care of your prizes. NOTE: We now have a NEW, separate email address for blog winners to use when contacting us. You can find it over in the blog sidebar under the heading “Email Us”.

Great work this week everyone…thanks again for sharing your simple holiday cards!

Happy holiday stamping,
