Wow ladies! You kept me busy! There were well over 300 entries! I'm overwhelmed and excited by the response. I had actually thought this would be a sllloooowwww weekend! LOL!
I hope you all had fun this weekend. And even if you didn't win a prize, I hope you are happy with the wonderful cards you're going to be able to give to friends and family.
Due to the response, there are 12 winners instead of 6! You LOVE flowers, ladies! That's category one. The other category for each sketch is called "Beyond Flowers". I gave it that title because sometimes cards had a flower BG or an embellishment but the main image wasn't a flower. Make sense?
Please take time to comment on the wonderful cards. I am simply amazed at the talent shown here this weekend. You don't want to miss it.
I will first list the 12 winners, then I'll go sketch by sketch and list the categories, winners, and runner-ups along with the links. I have 2 disclaimers: I am listing the runner-ups to have fun. No one won by default. Second: Usually during a weekly sketch challenge, a stamper is free to alter the sketch and that is great! But since this was such a stiff competition, any altered sketches were disqualified. (This did not include embellishments.) I had to start somewhere ;)
YOUR WINNERS

Winners: If you are not a part of the Challenge Chasers RAK group, please PM your real name and snail mail address so I can send your prize to you.
(This sketch was the toughest to judge with so many unique non-flower cards. I just have to list some honorable mentions here: steffie1027, tinkerflies, star, Pink-fish, LodiChick, and seewah.)
Congratulations to all the winners and runners up! I can't even begin to imagine how Jen accomplished this challenge and list! Thanks to Jen for a fun challenge!

Congrats to everyone, winners and non-winners since all the cards were great. Don't know how Jen did! Big way to go to Jen for taking the time to even select winners out of such a large group!
Jen thank you again for such a fun challenge and weekend!! Congrats to all the winners. All the cards were great. Sure glad it was Jen:cool: having to judge these and not me.
congrats to everyone.....great cards....great efforts
I do have a question......I try to go to the collective site often to see the entries in each challenge.....such as for this one I would go to TLC70(plus the letter for that challenge)......however, when I went to view the various winner's cards, I had not seen many of them in the respective galleries......anyone know why.....do I really have to go to the thread and read each message to see all enries? I thought they would all be in the specific gallery.l.....not sure if I explained my question well or not.....I hate to miss cards for the challenges cuz I really love seeing the creative efforts of all these talented stampers...........
anyway....thanks jen for your efforts.........we are all winners and you are too
Jen, thanks for the incredible challenges! It was really fun! You really had a tough job judging--there are sooooo many fabulous cards! I am excited to have been chosen for runner-up 2 times & Honorable Mention once. Thanks for the great sketches--(Applause to you!)
Congrats to all the super, fabulous, creative, talented ladies who one! You are such a great inspiration! Everyone is a winner b/c they got to stamp this w/e!
If you 1st click on gallery & then type in the challenge you are searching for (ex. LSC70A), it will bring up all the cards that are uploaded with that code listed in the keywords. Hope that helps.
Holy 4th of July, Batman!!! I'm so tickled I could shoot off a cherry bomb (that is, if I had one or the nerve to actually light it!). Don't know how you managed this with all the awesome entries, Jen. Thanks for your hard work and providing a fun-filled 4th weekend. Congrats to all the winners and runners-up!! Everyone who partook was a winner in my book!! BE SAFE EVERYONE--want you all to have 10 fingers on the 5th!!

Congratulations to the winners, runner-ups, and honorable mentions, as well as all of those who participated in this challenge! Jen, you did a great job with this challenge, and I so appreciate all you did. Thanks for selecting me as a runner-up; I was truly honored because there were so many beautiful cards in this competition.
Happy 4th of July!
I finally got a look at the winners - WOW - such talented ladies and I'm pleased to say that I was a runner-up - Woo Hoo!! I had so much fun doing these square cards. Thanks so much Jen for a fun challenge. And congrats to all the winners!!
Thanks Jen for setting up this fun weekend challenge! I don't know how you picked the winners from all the fabulous cards and it's no wonder you had to double the amount of winners! I think I have a lot of inspiration for future square cards! Congrats to all the players and winners!

kudos to everyone! I only had time to make two of the cards, but I had lots of fun and this was my first challenge with prizes. My favorite of all is the chicken card by lacyquilter. I wish I had that set even more now!
I do have a question about Challenge Chasers RAK group. What is it and how do you join. Also what is pm?

PM - Personal Message. See the envelope by your user name in the top right hand corner? It's cool!
Challenge Chasers RAK group - There's a growing group of us who chat/stalk the challenges each evening. So, last night for example, there were people chatting on the Wednesday sketch challenge... just to talk... and in hopes that Roxie would post early, like Tuesday night instead of Wed morning. Anyway, this has become a little communtiy and we decided to start our own RAK group (Random Acts of Kindness) where we send each other cards. Very fun! There is a thread devoted to it in the Challenge forum. It's posted under the weekly challenges.
Wow Jen, 300?!! I think you created a monster with all those great sketches!! I am so excited to be picked a winner, there were so many awesome cards!!
Congrats to everyone!
I can't believe I forgot to find out the winners! I was looking for this week's LSC and found this thread. Thanks, Jen for giving us this fantastic challenge and for all of your time invested in it! BTW, Courtney will be thrilled that her name was mentioned.
