It’s time to announce the second round winners from our July challenge!  As always, all of the submissions were outstanding, but we have chosen seven individuals who really caught our eye this time.  Thanks so much to all of you who entered our contest…all of your entries were so much fun to browse through!

Our Fresh Face winner is jesslarsendesign with this stunning card featuring our Flower Bird Garden image.  This stamp is perfect for the emboss resist technique as Jess has done here over the top of some notebook patterned paper.

Our Digital winner is noonuh. with this gorgeous summery creation.  The beautiful watercolored flower is from the Pretty Blossoms Printable, which is available in the Hero Arts online store.

And now onto our Fab Five, five of our favorite projects, presented in no particular order. Just like our Fresh Face and Digital winners, every member of the Fab Five will receive a $50 Hero Arts shopping spree.

First up is luv2scrapnat (Natalie).  She combined the Big Flowers Pattern along with our Sending Smiles stamp set to create this adorably cute summer scene.  We love the embossed background and the stitching for the flower stem is genius!

Next up, dahlhousedesigns created this adorable clean & simple card using The Line DigiKit.  These can be some of the toughest types of cards to create, but she has done it perfectly!

Wanda Guess wowed us with this sweet set of cards that just screams summer!  We just love all those yummy scallops paired with the fruit images from our Simply the Best stamp set.

Next, Jacqueline.fr had us dreaming of spending long summer days relaxing on the beach with this card.  We love the soft and soothing color combo paired with our Antique Engravings stamp set.

And finally, we have Decoratie Coudenys - a Lut of stamps with this fun summer scene she created completely from white cardstock.  We love how she used so many of our stamps in new ways, like taking our Three Winter Trees image and turning them into these beautiful green leafy trees.
