3-D Valentine Project Winners

We had so many beautiful Valentines projects entered into our challenge last week and want each and every one of you to know how thrilled we were that you joined in.  The designers had a wonderful time visiting all your blogs and seeing your creations up close and personal.  But many beautiful projects made for a tough judging choice. Here are our awards for the 3-D Valentine project.

The Top Talent Award goes to Donna from Butternut Sage Designs for this beautiful box:

Donna's gorgeous box stopped us in our tracks!  Beautifully crafted with a clean and simple yet elegant feel, this box shows wonderful attention to detail.  The beautiful ribbon, bow, curled paper treatment on the lid pulls it all together.  

Congratulations Donna!  Please feel free to grab the Top Talent Award from our sidebar to display on your blog.  We would like to offer you a guest designer spot and will be contacting you with the details.

And for this week's Talented Trio Awards, our design team has selected:

Chris Olsen - Twinkles Glow With Stamps

We think this darling little gift box shows superb attention to detail with its beautifully color coordinated flowers, papers and coloring.   All of the yummy extras add visual interest without distracting the eye and the silver heart on the ring conveys the Valentine feel wonderfully.  

Sue Rowe - My Stampin' Blog

Sue's project is super sweet and we love the red/pink/chocolate color combination.  The tag has a lovely CAS feel to it and the band around the clear pillow box is perfect.   An altogether fun gift for her children's teachers!

Nelia - My Lovely Inspirations

We're still drooling over Nelia's cookies, but that's not why we picked her project.  We think it's sweet that the packaging matches the cookies and that there is also a matching card and envelope.  The way she made the box from an envelope die and layered the scalloped edges together is terrific design work.

A big congratulations to all of our Talented Trio Award winners this week.  Ladies, we hope you will grab the award badge from our sidebar and proudly display it on yours.  

Don't forget, there is still time for you to play in our Branch Out challenge that closes Friday night, February 11th.  We love all the wonderful creations that have been submitted to far and can't wait to see more of your work!
