Wow...we reached over 30 entries for our 'Say it with Flowers' challenge. A huge thank you to all who shared their projects with us.
The lucky person chosen to receive the gorgeous gift from our sponsor Marlou is Ira. Congratulations! Please email Mandy your address and we will get them in the post to you.
For challenge #19 we'd love to see your projects which involve sewing in some shape or form. This could be stitching on your card, a handmade stitched project, an image or die cuts to do with sewing. These are just a few ideas, remember we like to keep our challenges as open to interpretation as possible.

In the school holidays recently, I made sock monkeys with my daughters. I did the sewing and they stuffed them. I crocheted little flowers to match and sewed on buttons. They really enjoyed making them.
You can find a tutorial on how to make them here.

At the end of this month a colleague at work will be getting married and she loves butterflies! Jamey sent me some gorgeous butterflies cut using a Marianne Die, just perfect for my design.
I used Tim Holtz Antique Linen Distress Ink to help blend it into my background paper.
The gorgeous felt used for my Papertrey Love Lives here butterflies comes from the Ribbon Girl's Summer Day Felt Collection. These have been stitched together then added to a cork paper heart.
The gorgeous 32mm ivory silk ribbon and diamante heart pin are also from The Ribbon Girl and the paper rose and pearl spray are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
I finished off my design with a tea dyed tag and sentiment from Papertrey's Borders and Corners Mini Stamp Set.
