Congratulations ladies! You are the very first to have our I was picked banner to display on your blog.

Our sponsor this challenge is the awesome Pizzazz Aplenty. Pizzazz Aplenty has a wonderful assortment of beads, pins, and ribbon to name a few. The best part of Pizzazz Aplenty besides their stock assortment, is their prices. You won't believe how reasonable everything is! The owner is so sweet and has a very quick turn around time. And YES, she ships overseas!

Pizzazz Aplenty is offering the winner of this challenge a surprise package worth $10 and from Pizzazz Aplenty that is a lot!

Our challenge for this fortnight is Seeing Red. We want to see red as your primary color.

Now for some sad news. Rebekah has stepped down from our team to pursue other opportunities. She has given us one last change to share her talent with you and I am sure that will agree that Rebekah is a great talent by her card below. We at Creative Card Crew wish her the very best and hope to see her around blog land often.

#1 Snow Day

2012-01-03T00:01:00.011-06:00

Happy New Year!!!! Welcome back to another new year of fun challenges. We are all so thankful that so many of you have joined us in so many challenges last year. You amazed and inspired us in so many ways, and we are looking forward to another year of gazing upon your creations.

We have decided to start the new year with a few changes. We will now be featuring a top 3. There are so many creations that we see that we want to showcase for everyone to see. The team will be rotating you chooses these. The team was pretty excited about having the opportunity to name the top 3.

The challenge winner will still be picked by Random.org for the prize. The other change that we are making is that we will be excepting only 3 entries per person. We felt that would give everyone a more even chance to win the prize.

I am traveling when the collection closes (this is scheduled) and unable to draw the winner from the Christmas lights challenge and post it on here as I normally do. Therefore I will draw the winner and make a second post sometime Wednesday with the winner.

Now onto this challenge!

We are sponsored by our awesome monthly sponsor Simon Says Stamp!!! They have so many lovely things to craft with. You just have to see to believe all that they have.

This fortnights challenge is .... Snow Day!!!! We know that many of our blogging Friends have snow, some of you have lots of snow. LOL So "snow" us what you've got.

Now onto our challenge. We want to see Child's Play...anything that reminds you of a child at play, toys, etc. Our sponsor is The Stamping Boutique!

Here's some background on The Stamping Boutique:

Tracey Malnofski's resume reads like a who's who of the Stamping Industry. Besides being the owner and a designer for The Stamping Boutique, she's also a stamp artist for Unity Stamp Company and has also worked for InStyle Stamps, Squigglefly, and The Digi Shack. Her "Boutique" has it all - fairytale, whimsy, sentimental . . . and Candy! I do not envy the winner who has to choose digi stamps from all those delicious choices. Yep! A winner will be randomly selected to win 5 digital stamps of their choice from Tracey's Boutique!

Here's what Tracey says about her Stamping Boutique.

"The Stamping Boutique" is dedicated to quality products and original artwork. We not only provide wonderful digital images in our store, but also several lines of red rubber images. Our designers are chosen for their character and personality, as well as, their beautiful designs. We work hard to give you our very best. Thank you so much for having us as your sponsor this week.

Hi All! Welcome to a new challenge and some new teamies! We are so excited to share our fun with you! But first, let's announce the winner of our last challenge! Now because our linky was not cooperating in the beginning, I added the 44 entries from the comment section to the thumblink entries which gave us a total of 426
entries! So with that, the random winner is:

Gini Cagle with this BEAUTIFUL creation!

Gini, contact me at CreativeCardCrew@aol.com to claim your prize!

Now, onto our latest challenge! We want you to Give Thanks! In the states, we are looking forward to Thanksgiving and the kickoff of the holiday season! But not to leave out our fellow DT in other countries, all forms of "Thanks," are welcome!
