Samra here to announce the winner of our Earth Day challenge from last month. Thank you all who entered with us your marvelous work! Choosing a winner was not an easy task with so many wonderful entries! But without further ado I present to you...
WINNER -#33 Miranda
Miranda created this Earth Day inspired Journal Page, draw the hands holding the globes so beautifully and picked such a perfect sentiment to top it all off. In my eyes, this is a perfect interpretation of the challenge. Thank you Miranda for creating such an inspiring piece!
Congratulations Miranda! Pamellia will be in touch by email to send you a personalized winner's badge and to provide details about being our Feature Artist for the next challenge.
RUNNER-UP -#46 Kerstin
Truly and magically gorgeous piece. Love the magic of the sea feel of this piece and all the greens and blues that mix so well in this work of art.
RUNNER-UP - #51 Lisa
Shabby Chic gorgeousness at it's best!!! I love the blue flowers, shabby bow and the delicate butterfly just like our strong and mighty earth, yet so very delicate and fragile.

Now let's have a look at our DT favourites:
Anne's Favourite - #30 Karina
Karina transformed a plain album into a beautiful sea themed one, inside and out. Each page has been altered, capturing the wonderful colours of Samra's gorgeous mood board.
Branka's Favourite - #4 Julia Aston
This beautiful project has stolen my heart! A brilliant design with so many yummy elements, fabulous color choice and a perfect use of fabric! This altered book is truly a work of art!
Cec's Favourite - #23 Yellow House Studio
I loved this array of ATCs because they were chock full of stamping, stenciling and wonderful colour. All the fun vintage images paired so nicely with birds and insects to tie into Earth Day. Each one stands on its own but together they make a cohesive grouping.
Niki's Favourite -#1 Maura
I love the story of the butterflies having an internal compass and being able to fly thousands of miles by instinct. Maura has told their story amazingly well with this lovely tag and has captured a truly magical element of Earth Day. Maura used the greens from the mood board smashingly well and the gears with the pops of gold are stunning! Fantabulous design and details!
Pamellia's Favourites -
38. Jacquie's Jewels
54. Jane's Journal
38. Jacquie's Jewels
I just loved the technique Jacquie used to colour all these amazing leaves, but there's no denying that my favourite part of this fabulous creation is RUSTY the Squirrel!! Jacquie has captured my heart and the essence of what I enjoy about the outdoors the most...foliage and furry beings! LOVE IT!
54. Jane's Journal
Not only do I love all the amazing blues that Jane used here, but I love her earthy elements and amazing textures!! I also really enjoyed where Jane found her inspiration, please check out her post and be as inspired as I was!
Sara Emily's Favourite - #32 Joi@RR
I was totally blown away by the colors and the texture on this painting! You really need to visit Joi's blog to fully appreciate this work of art. Her step by steps are fascinating! Joi took the colors from Samra's mood board and ran with them! And even her inspiration is organic!
