Another surprise in store for all of you today, we don't have a winner! Oh wait, wait! Don't stare at me like that! :-p I meant to say we had WINNERS!! Yay! Two of them, and their names are same, now it's easy to guess! :)

The two people, who made our chins purple are Pooja and Pooja!! :) We just couldn't decide between these two girls!

Pooja from Reuising with quilling made this BEAUTIFUL shabby chic card! We have no words for her talent. Who says we can't make anything beautiful without all the fancy tools? Her card is a perfect example of what one can create if you have the heart to do so. Pooja, we LOVED what you made to bits! Keep up the great work girl!

Pooja from Lightbox creative ideas made us squeal with delight with a sweet Magnolia card! The effort put into making this card shows and all the elements are beautifully placed! Look at those blooms...drool worthy! :) Those rose buds on her card are handmade. Gorgeous work.

Congratulations to all the winners! Thanks again for participating! We look forward to seeing you in our future challenges as well.

Now for the next round of Bingo, I'm hoping that someone would scream 'Bingo' as soon as I finish announcing the next four words!! Even we are not able to wait any further you see! :-p

1. Olfa craft knife- (Olfa AK 3 craft knife)- a craft knife is a basic tool when it comes to paper crafting. It's even more important for those who are keen about fussy cutting the insides of an image. Let me show you an example...

See the stamped bicycle? I fussy cut the insides too to get a proper bicycle feel. Now, you can't do that with a scissors, you will need a craft knife and believe me, it's really worth investing in a good craft knife.

The craft knife I mentioned here is available in our store and it comes with 30 spare blades!!

2. Crafter's companion- there is a small video available on what you can exactly do with this... Check this out..

3. Stickers- if you want to make super quick cards or add dimension to your scrap book pages, it's good to have a small stock of stickers. I never used them much, thought they are only for scrap books. I have made something using Jolee's boutique dimensional stickers. This particular sticker is from THIS pack.

4. Self healing mat- this is a 'MUST HAVE' if you are into crafting of any type. It protects the surface on which you intend to cut your cards or images with a blade and sees to it that your mum (or hubby) doesn't get upset! :-p

There are many sizes of healing mats available at Crafters Corner.

Now who is going to send a mail to us first? :)

Have fun friends!

Love
