To give you a little inspiration, we’re going to share one of the beauties from our challenge team — courtesy Heather Jensen! I just LOVE how she used such soft colors with the Hearts & Flowers set.

DON’T FORGET TO LINKY UP YOUR CREATIONS!
Now… to the unveiling of this month’s TRUE BEAUTIES! I have to say… we originally had too many to count! I can’t believe we narrowed the list down to just three! The competition was tough and we feel blessed that so many joined us last month!
Last month, we challenged you to bring back beauty with a vintage flair and oh my…. like I said… you ladies did! One of my favorites was this one from Linda Coughlin. I just love the antiqued edges and all the little extras she added. This card has a ton of detail, but still looks so balanced!
Since I am a huge fan of bling… this card from Sandee really caught my eye. The glittered butterfly reminds me of a brooch that I just might find in my grandma’s jewelry box or a strand of antique pearls. It’s just too regal looking!
And last, but certainly not least, I love this tag trio from Melisa Waldorf…. perfect for Valentine’s don’t you think?
Thanks ladies! If you would like the Bring Back Beauty Blog Button to wear proudly on your blog, just email me at juliekoerber@bresnan.net and I’ll send it your way! Until next month! We can’t wait to see what you create with the season of love in mind!

Congratulations to the other winners also! Thanks again!!
I hope these wonderful BBB DT Ladies, stay on forever!! Every time I see their cards, I’m rendered completely speechless, and left wondering how I’d ever make a nice card again. Because anything I’d make would never measure up to their Beautiful Cards!! LOL
