Smiling stars of January!

Hello everyone,

thanks for visiting our blog today :)
We have some news to share with you. As you know we started our Blogs, that make you smile feature, in which we introduce some amazing paper crafters to you that you should definitely check out!

We also started a linky-party on our sidebar in January, and we were stunned by your projects, so we decided to feature some of you who played along and also draw one random winner who gets a surprise pack of goodies :)
The linky for February will be up very soon - we'd love to see your Create A Smile projects here!

So, here the are... our

(note: They come in no particular order)

1) Katrin
What I really love about Katrin's shaker card (Using Perfect Tune) is that she used a small stamp to create a background inside the shaker. It looks like the radio waves are shaking as well :)

2) Thordis

Boy, you need to check out her blog - she's amazing! And this Clean and simple, yet bold male card (using Whimsical Wheels) is a stunner! I love the colors, the stripes, the whole design. It just ROCKS!

3) Biggi
Biggi entered quite a few cards and they were all eye-catching and beautiful, but this fun and bright card (Using Jungle Fever, Perfect Tune and the yellow ovals washi tape) is my favorite! I love the color combo, the layout and her coloring. Who would not like to get that card?

Here's a badge that you can proudly display on your blogs:

Last but not least it's time for a random winner of some goodies.....
