As always, narrowing down our Top Picks was a challenge. Your creativity, craftsmanship and thoughtful interpretations make the process both inspiring and delightfully difficult.

Our Top Picks:

Fran

Frans's little envelopes - each one slightly different - are delightful. A smile-making take on the sketch.

Deborah

Deborah's yellow blooms are a pretty, clever and creative take on the sketch. The little bee is a charming special touch.  

Carol Mc

Carol's  inside-looking-out design is lovely, inviting scene to gaze upon - and a brilliant take on the sketch.  The light shining on the sentiment is a charming touch.

Congratulations to our Top Picks; please take your badge.
