Tristan's Rocker:  Jan has create a fabulous tag, with great layering of her elements, colouring of the girl, placement of the flowers and wonderful sentiment.

Michelle's Rocker:  I love how Tenia has coloured the beautiful flower and all those layers showcase it beautifully! Stunning card!

Helen's Rocker:  Mac's vellum layer with silver stencilled gilding gives a wonderful eye-catching effect over the background stamping!
