Winners For Sketch 250!

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and our hostess Cécile has chosen the Queen!


The Queen of Clean: Jane Knudsen from See Jane Stamp

Thanks so much to all those who played along with my sketch! I had such a great time browsing the gallery and checking out everyone's cards this week. But then came the tough part of the job! How difficult it has been picking just one among all these stunning cards. In the end I’ve chosen Jane Knudsen’s take on the sketch. It’s such a wonderful clean design. And I love her clever idea to interpret the angle panel on a one-layer card using dotted line die cut. Congrats, Jane! You're the Queen of Clean.



Please come back tomorrow for a new sketch from Cindy!

Winners For Sketch 249!

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and our hostess Kim has chosen the Queen!


The Queen of Clean: Annette from Da Kijkkast

I had such a time browsing the gallery - thanks to everybody for playing along. Annette's card really caught my eye.  I love her black and melon color scheme, and I especially love the way she took the white vertical panel and used it as a backdrop for that big bold flower!  It's a gorgeous card Annette!  You are the Queen of Clean!



Please come back tomorrow for a new sketch from Cécile!
