I am beyond thrilled to share some exciting news with you. My card, in the blog post lovingly entitled Poinsettia Perfection, was selected as the Featured Artist for the recent As You See It Challenge Challenge #338 – A Window into the New Year! This particular challenge was a sketch challenge, and as soon as I saw the design, I knew it would be the perfect opportunity to create a fun card.
Here’s a look at the winning card:
And here’s the original post about the card. The combination of rich colors, delicate details, and a touch of sparkle came together beautifully, and I’m so glad it resonated with the judges. It’s such an honor to have my work recognized among so many talented creators. A heartfelt thank you to the team at As You See It Challenge for this wonderful acknowledgment!
The Design Team of the As You See It Online Challenge said: “Our winning entry, Julia Sager, the Featured Artist, has created a card both festive and elegant! The Design Team loved the classic colour palette of red, green and gold, the embossed background, and the creative horizontal elements. Those embossing dies created very compelling poinsettias for this seasonal display. Congratulations on being our Featured Artist, Julia!”
This win is not just a celebration for me but also a reminder of the joy and creativity that comes with participating in challenges. They push us to think outside the box, try new techniques, and connect with an amazing community of crafters. If you’ve been considering joining a challenge, I highly encourage you to give it a try. You never know where your creativity might take you!
Thank you all for your encouragement and support. Your comments and kindness inspire me every day to keep creating and sharing. Until next time, keep crafting with joy!
