Below, are projects by our three featured designers of the week, but make sure to check out their blogs and the blogs of our other wonderful designers for more information and inspiration!
Made by Ellen Vargo!
I like the word band that she chose!! Plus the weathered copper patina looks fabulous! : )
Ellen used Art Parts Small Pages by Wendy Vecchi, the Ranger Vintaj Weathered Copper Patina Kit, the Damask & Regal Flourishes Embossing Folder by Tim Holtz for Sizzix, and the following Tim Holtz Idea-ology pieces: Book D Rings, Newsprint Alpha Parts, and Word Bands!
Made by Candy Colwell!
I love the crinoline on this! It goes so well with the pearls and (of course) the image - so feminine!! The torn, inked paper in the background is nice too! Candy used Vintage Photo and Black Soot Distress Inks by Tim Holtz, Cutter Bee Scissors by EK Success, Melissa Frances White Pearls, and Waterfall and Star Dust Stickles by Ranger!
Made by Linda Elbourne!
Linda used the Kabuka Mold #7 by Ten Seconds Studio! She also used the Gadget Gears die by Tim Holtz for Sizzix, a cutting machine, the Steampunk Cling Rubber Stamp Set by Tim Holtz, and Sprocket Gears Idea-ology pieces!
Blog Candy Alert!
Leave a comment about one (or all) of these gorgeous for a chance to win this exclusive, not for sale Hero Arts Stamp Set - great to use for Challenges! ; ) This kit comes with a 6x8" set of clear stamps plus black and white printed copies of ideas.
