Winner: Challenge #46 - Step Card

Thank you to everyone who entered our Challenge No. 46 - Step Card
*****
Our intention is to use Random.org if we have over ten participants; otherwise, (Creative Team) CT Coordinator will chose the winner. We had three participants but one of the links did not work so that left me with the daunting task of choosing a winner between TWO entries. What a dilemma! Both were absolutely stunning but, sadly, there can only be one winner. Ssooo... on to the winner!
#3 - CG
Now that Fitztown allows ALL digital images, the prizes have changed. You can find info about these changes here
Please email stampnscrapjunkie@gmail.com with the ONE image you chose from Fitztown within seven (7) days. You can shop for images here.  Please use Challenge #46 Winner in the subject line. Don't forget to grab your winner badge located here to display proudly on your blog's sidebar!

CT Coordinator chooses a TOP 3 from ALL entries only if we have at least 10 entries. There were not enough entries for a TOP 3.

Sadly, winner for Challenge #45 - Browns did not come forward to claim prize so we were forced to draw again. Here's to the new lucky winner:
#5 - Maxibelle Studio
Please email stampnscrapjunkie@gmail.com with the ONE image you chose from Fitztown within seven (7) days. You can shop for images here.  Please use Challenge #45 Winner in the subject line. Don't forget to grab your winner badge located here to display proudly on your blog's sidebar! 

If BOTH prizes go unclaimed, winner will be drawn again with the next challenge winner announcement.

We will announce the winner and TOP 3 for Challenge #47 - Anything Goes on Sunday, August 24th. We hope you are also participating in our week 2 of Challenge #48 - Just for Kids and Challenge #49 - Wet or Dry Embossing which kicks off tomorrow, August 18th. Thanks for joining our challenges!

Inspiration from Lynn

Hey everyone, it's Lynn here with some inspiration for the latest challenge here at Fitztown!
I've used a really cute LE5 from the Last Enchanter series of images.
My son and husband LOVE the game "Clash of Clans" and this image reminded me of that game.  I guess she'd be an Archer in the game !!  I wanted to keep an earthy feel to the card, so I used mostly brown tones.  I've left the sentiment off this card because quite honestly I'm not sure if it will be a birthday card or something else !!  How cute is this image?  Don't ya just love it?
I hope I've inspired you to play along this week.  There are sooo many possibilities for creating a card For the Kids on this challenge.  I look forward to seeing what you create !!

Just for Kids

Hi. This is CT member Rachelle with an inspiration card for Challenge #48.
 "Just for Kids"
Are you ready for some football? The football preseason is beginning and I found that choosing an image for this challenge was an easy one. I love using papers that when coupled with just the right image are the perfect marriage.
I colored the image (Sports 20) with Copic Markers. I used brads, foam tape, Spellbinders Nestabilities and a Fiskars star punch to create the masculine card that will appeal to both children and teens. I hope this card inspires and gets your creative juices flowing. I look forward to seeing your creations!

Hi everybody! 
I’m Barb and this is my first Fitztown Creative Team Member inspiration piece. 
I’m truly honored to become part of this join this artistic group of women! 

The Challenge says “Anything Goes”, so I went floral. 
I have a friend who is going through a rough patch, so I want to send her a cheery card.

For this card, I used the Garden 9 image from Fitztown.
I colored it in with inks and a blender pen,
and then added some distress detailing.
