We’ve been watching the gallery on the World Card Making Day web site grow and grow and grow…and I am just giddy that it’s over 1300 cards already. If you add in the 1000+ cards from the 2008 archive, there’s a whole lotta inspiration going on!

Cath spotlighted five gallery winners over at Moxie Fab World a few days ago, and I’m here to show you the other five winning gallery cards. Wow — what a group of talented cardmakers we have in our midst! Each winner will receive a one year subscription to Paper Crafts magazine.

We’re also happily slicing open the envelopes that are arriving daily with entries for the World Card Making Day Card Contest (don’t worry, there’s still time to enter – details HERE). Photobucket

Even though there’s a sweet prize package for the 20 winning cards, the real winners are the soldiers who eventually receive the entries we don’t select. For the third year in a row, we’ll be donating them to a worthy cause: Operation Write Home (formerly Cards For Heroes).

We donated the 2008 entries that were not selected to www.cardsforheroes.com

As World Card Making Day continues to grow and bring cardmakers all over the world a lot closer to one another, we want to give a shout out to everyone who has helped spread the paper crafted love for this year.

Cheers!
