Top Picks - Challenge #292 - and Reminder Post - Challenge #293 - Word Prompt - Christmas in July

 Hello,

Welcome to today's two part post.

First, our current challenge - Word Prompt - Christmas in July - can be found HERE. At the time of writing this post, 36 festive delightsare in the gallery...and we still have a week to go! Let's keep those Christmas spirits soaring!

If you haven't entered yet - or if you'd like to enter again - the link is open until Friday, July 14th @ 11:59pm (GMT). We'd be so pleased if you joined us and thank you if you already have done so.

Second, Julia's Designer's Choice Challenge - Emboss Your Background, proved to be quite popular, with the gallery closing at 46 creative entries. As always, selecting Top Picks was a challenge, as you're all winners in our books.  

Our TOP PICKS for Challenge #292 are:

Helen

Helen's adorable skating mouse is beautifully coloured - and oh, how pretty the shimmering embossed text background.

Deb

Deb's single layer card features an embossed background, lightly sponged, to enhance her lovely florals. 

Dawn

Dawn has created a lovely sympathy card; a crackle embossing folder provides beautiful texture for her water.

Congratulations to our TOP PICKS; please take your badge.
