Welcome to Magazine Monday! Today we’re revealing the winners of our August Gallery Challenge! Themed “Buttons, Brads & Ribbon”, submissions poured in using all three of these paper crafting supplies in unique, creative ways.
Since most of you gravitated towards buttons, we had no problem picking three fantastic entries to represent this fun challenge. And since I’m also a fan of the button, I picked this theme for our monthly card group. We’re meeting this Saturday to swap cards, and I can’t wait to see what their crafty little brains create.
In the meantime, let’s get to know our final three winners!

We loved Jen's use of colorful buttons in her Wishing You Sunshine Card.

We loved the trios of threaded buttons in Carina's It's Your Birthday Card.
Winner #3 – Rachel Schumacher:

And Rachel's Cute As a Bug Card is simply cute as a button!
Congratulations, ladies! Each of you has won either a one-year subscription to Paper Crafts magazine or the special issue of your choice. I’ll be contacting you shortly to discuss your prizes.
