We have a random picked WINNER for our last challenge - CONGRATULATIONS to 43. Gloria Zuniga! Gloria, please email me to claim your prize!

Our next challenge will be a sketch and our designers have whipped up some amazing projects to showcase the illustration! To play along, just make a project based on the sketch (card or layout), and link up your entry in Mr. Linky no later than Sunday, August 1st!

Onto the inspiration (and boy, is there plenty of it today)!


The Sketch

Viv's SWEET pretty in pink baby card is here - and she used the "Tear Bear" stamp & die set.

Lorie's Robot card completely melted my heart! She used "Robo Love" and "Robo Star"

Janice has created a frosty, wintry dream scene using "Mistletoe Twist" and "Sugar 'N Spice Gingers".

Nikki is making me want to go out and get some of that trim she used in her "Mouse Gets the Cheese" card! So much fun!

Emma's card makes ME smile using the sweet "Happy Lil' Frog" and "Potted Flower" stamps and dies!

Sonia is getting us in the Fall spirit (my fave season!) using "Dress Me Ghost"!

Heidi is showing us a preview of our re-released set, "Lil' Gingerbreads and Phrases" (available later today on our site) and how sweet they are in her yummy layout!

Step right up to Samantha's "Sea Animals & Creatures" adorable lemonade stand card! She also used "Ocean Fun" and "Under the Sea".

Lisa's little animals sure must have something to laugh about! "Pig Peeker" and "Cow Peeker" look as happy as can be! She also used some of her Critter faces for the horse's eyes!

*****************************************************************************
Remember this challenge will have one JUDGED winner and one RANDOM winner, so please be sure to enter by August 1st for two chances to win!

Our JUDGED winner will receive PK-510 "Jack-O-Lantern Faces", perfect to get a headstart on all your Halloween projects!

Viv drew her inspiration from her trips to France. I am sooo in love the color scheme; just look what she has created with Sea Animals & Creatures! While you're visiting Viv, check out her cute new blog layout! Très Bien!


Lorie's "Lil' Froggies" are reminiscent of her summer camping trips - aren't they the sweetest?! Her coloring is always just beautiful!


We love Janice's hot air balloon filled with characters from all over the world! She used a variety of faces from the Princess, Simple Simons, Simple Sallies, and Fun Kiddie collections.

Nikki's ghouly card is too fun! I just love that moon sneaking a menacing peek from behind the cloud! She used our new Monster faces!


Emma's inspiration was a trip she took on her anniversary, and this card certainly makes me want to get on a plane and head out for some island fun!! She used Vivienne and Friends to stamp her sentiment.

Sonia has created the most adorable winter wonder land using our small Snow Coaster Girl!


When I saw this layout from Heidi, I was just grinning from ear to ear. She has really done a fantastic job showcasing the Create-A-Critter cart and the Critter Faces with all her adorable lil' guys and gals. What a PERFECT way to remember a state fair!



Samantha's card is an absolute delight this week! She used one of our dynamic duos, Henny Penny and Booster Rooster and framed out their vacation perfectly with Simple Barn, Silo, Sun and Cloud.


The ever-imaginative Lisa brings us this too-cute-for-words chocolately layout! She used Everyday Faces to stamp "Charlie's" face!


On July 20th we will one random winner for the following goodies:
(1) PK-790 Boogie Board Max


(1) Memento Ink Pad in Tuxedo Black and



(1) coordinating acrylic block.
