  1. I’m not one bit surprised that you made Shelli’s top list. The colors in this card are beyond fabulous!

  2. Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!! You are the best. I am so glad that you received this wonderful recognition. Well deserved!

  3. Absolutely no wonder in my mind as to why you and your creativity was chosen by Shelli! You’ve outdone yourself again – what a truly beautiful card!!!

  4. Wow! I’m so happy for you that you are a winner! You deserve it. Your cards are always wonderful. I’ll bet Shelli put your site on her ‘favorites’ list and will visit you more.

  5. Your colors are fantastic together. I’m not surprised you won! Good job, keep it up. I love seeing your cards because they inspire me to be bold and create.

  6. Congratulations Mary! I’m so happy you got recognized by Shelli. I really think you have a great website – chic, classy, and elegant. SU! probably thinks the same. They probably have a team of people who monitor the best sites out there that promote and use SU products well. You’re one of them. Keep it up!

  7. Mary,
    I’m not surprised at ALL that Shelli Gardner would be impressed with your work! That’s ’cause your work is always stunning! I am so, so happy for you!! Well deserved, Mary!

  8. Congratulations on the win; not surprising as the card you entered was gorgeous! As a Stampin Up demonstrator, you used all the ‘bells & whistles’ on it, too, with the die cuts, etc. The Christmas card today is striking; non-traditional colors and, as always, eye catching with heat embossing. I must remember to do that more often as it impresses the heck out of non-stampers; they think I’m magic to be able to do that! lol

  9. Well of course Shelli was checking your blog out, you have one of the best one’s out there! I’m on it every day seeing what you’ve done, which is always great stuff!

  10. Congratulations Mary! That is very exciting. I am sure they just loved your blog as well. You always do everything so classy and are so loyal to SU! You should be very proud of your blog and your creations, they are fabulous! Thanks for sharing and it is always so nice to hear from you after leaving comments, that makes it so personal and I hope that I can grow up to be just like you…LOL…a little fun there..thanks again Mary and you totally deserve it!!!

  11. I’m not surprised that you won, but I am happy for you. That card is stunning. Stampin’ Up is quite fortunate to have such a talented, skilled, dedicated and hard-working demonstrator! I have purchased many items, and made good use of SU items I already had, after looking at your inspiring projects or tutorials.

    Congratulations on being recognized for your lovely work!

  12. Pretty card! I just love embossing.

    Congrats again! You should feel very proud.

  13. I’m sure that Shelli would be thrilled with your blog…you are so faithful to Stampin’ Up! And your card is lovely…beautifully simple design as I think a Scandinavian design would be!

  14. Mary, I am thrilled for you! I am doing a tag class this Saturday and may copy, with credit to you, the gold embossed tree. I LOVE this stamp set, with the last name of Olson ;), and the gold gives it a very different look than the more Scandinavian red, green and white inks I’ve been using.

  15. Well, I think your winning the challenge requires a party! Congratulations. I keep telling you Mary that your SU site is top notch and one of the best on line. So – share – what was the prize? I hope it’s something great and, I too would be freaking out if the owner of SU liked one of my cards. LOL

  16. One of those “…it’s up…it’s going…it’s…it’s…GOOOOD!!! And the crowd goes wild!” {Insert huge stadium cheering} Now pull your fist down in a great big “YESSSS!”
    Too much football, I know, but you get the idea! So happy for you!
    Really like the gold ep today. And another fresh color combo for Christmas!

  17. This card is absolutely STUNNING Mary…I just adore it!
    Congrats for being chosen by Shelli too…what an honour 🙂 But I’m not surprised, your stuff is always gorgeous!!!

  18. Gorgeous, Mary!!! It is absolutely beautiful and congratulations on your recognition by Shelli! Do you mind if I CASE your card from today? I just finished one of my Scandinavian Season card sets and was planning to do a set with gold EP so this is perfect inspiration.
