Hi, crafty friends, it’s Chark today to let you know who won our June Shaped Card Challenge. We had some familiar names in the challenge and some new ones, but everyone’s take on this challenge was fabulous!

The team chose Belle’s card as their favorite shaped card this month. And we found out the Belle is Sunny Qi’s daughter and just turned 11! What we loved about this card was the bottle shape for the little ship and creatures, along with the inking for the water and sky. Beautifully done and a fun card, Belle.

We have three runners-up each month and the next three designers got a lot of votes. They also get bragging rights and a blog button to put on their blogs to tell everyone how much we like their work. Just email us at a2zscrapping@gmx.com to claim your button.

Our first runner-up this month is Kanan, with this gorgeous bright-on-dark card. The inking on the butterfly and the lovely background made this a favorite. And see those tiny matching butterflies? Adorable! Nicely done, Kanan!

Our second runner-up was the clever card that Kailash designed…love the jar of flowers she made. And the little gems on the jar and sequins on the flowers make this one so special. Lovely work, Kailash!

Our third runner-up is Andrea, who has so much talent, she created four cards for this challenge! This frosty elegant card was our favorite, don’t you love how cool this makes you feel? The blue ombre effects she achieved with the background and the letters are just wonderful. Couldn’t love that sentiment more, Andrea, it’s beautiful!
