Here is some applause from the crew...

I absolutely love Amy's textured background and all of the beautiful patterns and dimensional embellishments - all while keeping a gorgeous CAS look!

Amy's card is amazing! I love all the white space, mix of papers, and fabulous use of the modeling paste. Lots of visual interest, and yet still has a clean feel to it. Beautiful!

Amy's clustering and use of texture always amazes me! Gorgeous!

I really love the texture, layering, the mix of patterns and white space is fantastic on Amy's card. My vote goes to her.

Amy's beautiful pattern choices and layering create such a whimsical and dreamy card!

Amy wows me with per perfect layering and use of open space!

Amy's card is fabulous with all the details but still feeling CAS. Love it!

Cozy Quilt LEAD and Show Stoppers

Thank you for joining us for the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - Cozy Quilt. I hope you were able to find some time to cozy up with your own cozy quilt after you made your card!


A big thank you goes to the Curtain Call readers, followers, participants and to our sponsor, Lil' Inker Designs, who is providing a $30 gift certificate to our LEAD!



The LEAD of the Cozy Quilt challenge is...



Congrats, Torico!  Please email Stacey at slschaf771@aol.com to accept your prize!

Here is some applause from the crew...

I love Torico's card! All of the patterns and colors just go together amazingly well!

Torico's card was a wonderful take on the colours and squares in the inspiration photo. Had a very "cozy" feel to it.

Torico's card has the perfect choice of colors/patterns. Love how the wood button and jute twine finish it off so nicely.





The Show Stoppers for the Cozy Quilt challenge are...


Love Meghan's take on the challenge...So pretty! Even though it's somewhat clean and simple, it still has the comforting texture that reminds me of a cozy quilt!

Meghan was my fave, her quilt design is impeccable and I love the solids mixed with one print.

What I like about Meghan's card is that she took the inspiration photo and came up with a totally different pattern. Love the colors and design.





Michelle created a beautiful quilted and stitched heart ending up with a lovely clean and layered card.

Love the pretty patchwork heart on Michelle's card. Perfect colors and fabulous patterns.




I love the bold colors on the white background. The subtle differences in tones is such a great touch on Harriet's simple quilt squares and creating them at an angle made this card a real standout.
