Trees Email Entry

Hi everyone!

I have an email entry from our friend Dawn in the UK.  She writes:

The tree stamp, from Personal Impressions, Winter Birds-Tall Trees, just asked to be made into a card for the November challenge, so I just had to buy it.  I paired it up with two of Clarity Reindeer stamps, which I stamped onto the card first.  I covered the deer with masks and then stamped the trees three times.  After colouring the deer using Promarkers I used Adirondack inks and torn paper with a sponge to create the sky and the snowy foreground and then added a little sparkle to the trees using a Clear Star Gelly Roll pen, before layering onto a piece of card which I had embossed around the edges using Versamark and Heat it Up embossing powder in blue.
Hope you like it.

And here is her lovely card!


I will be back on Sunday with winners of the trees challenge and our theme for December.

Fowl Weather Challenge Winners!

Hello everyone, I think this theme was difficult for challengers to interpret as we have several entries that don't meet the requirements to have a bird (fowl) and stormy weather.  We only had 13 direct challengers and 2 email entries so I have decided to dispense with the random winner and name the Top 4 instead. I do hope everyone doesn't mind the change.

When we review all the great entries each month for the Top 3/4 we are looking for finished projects (cards, bookmarks, framed art, etc), and scenes that are stamped or digi'd with all the scenic elements mentioned in our rules.  

Our Top 4 this month are:


Dawn - email entry


Helen Quilts

Kati - Mamapias Stamp Corner


Congratulations to all!  I will be back in a few minutes with our next challenge.
