Hello friends! I apologize for being a day late and a dollar short with the Art with Heart April Showers Challenge winners post. I’m in the mix of my daughter’s wedding but more on that later. Such beautiful art was shared here for the Art with Heart April Showers Challenge and I would like to thank you all for your participation and most importantly sharing your art with heart! Your creativity and artistry never ceases to amaze me.
The randomly chosen winner of the Art with Heart April Showers Challenge IS…..Tonya of Creative Addiction to Paper!
Tonya has a way with my Sizzix dies that I just love! I was absolutely delighted when her number came up as the winner for this months challenge. Tonya was one of our Top 3 last month {See her project HERE} and I’m so excited to see her back again with another fabulous project using my Sizzix Artist Trading Block Dies. Stop by Tonya’s blog for more gorgeous photos of her Lullaby Artist Trading Block!
