Hello and Happy Thanksgiving, friends! Before we get to today’s contest winners, we wanted to take a moment to let you know how very grateful we are for all of YOU and your support! Thank you for visiting the blog and allowing us to be a part of your creative life. We hope you enjoy a warm and wonderful holiday with loved ones!

Now it’s time to feast — feast our eyes on the first round winning creations for our November contest, that is! We’ve gazed in adoration at the hundreds of entries for this round, and finally chosen seven of our favorites. So, without further ado, let’s tell you who they are!

Our Fresh Face this time is Carol L_7 whose purple beauty features our Winter Moon stamp, which she has embellished with LOTS of yummy bling. Delicious!

Our Digital winner is ctprezzia (clare) with her sweet gift box featuring our Printable Owl digikit. She used some of the fun colors from our color challenge, and we love the result!

And now 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.

bdengler4 (Barb) is the first of our winners this week. Her stunning card uses stamps from our Snowflakes set which she white embossed then inked over with distress inks. The pearls add the perfect touch of bling to this beautiful creation.

Karin Akesdotter (PeppermintPatty) made us all smile with her fun holiday scene. Pairing our Fox with one of our Holiday Dolls stamps is such an original idea, and we just love it. AND she embossed her background and added Stickles on top. Brilliant.

hamiltonkim55 has “brought on the bling” by applying plenty of sparkly glitter to her Poinsettia. We love the traditional red, green and white color scheme on this pretty card.

sally_sherfield has added glitter a-plenty to her sweet snowman tags made using our Snow Much Joy snowman and matching die. We think these will look fantastic under the tree at Christmas.

And finally, quilterlin, who used our color challenge colors and a whole lot of snowflake stamps on this cheery holiday card. What fun!
