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.

Fowl Weather Challenge - Week 4

Ooops! I forgot to set this post up before I went off to church this morning.  

This month our theme is "Fowl Weather". This means you should create a scene that shows a bit of stormy weather (any kind from light rain to full-on tornado) and just to make it more fun please include birds in your scene - hence the name "Fowl Weather".

I have an amazing design team who is very creative and has wonderful inspiration to guide you through the theme.







OK, so now you have an idea of what to do with the theme "Fowl Weather".  You may enter up to 3 times and as many challenges as you wish. If you do not have a blog or account on Split Coast Stampers, then just email me a picture of the piece and I will add it to one of our posts.  

If you are not sure what constitutes a scenic project, check out the information here.

We have email entries from our two friends from England......

Margaret from Yorkshire England here with my entry for the October Challenge.   For this card I sponged on Adirondack ink in various shades of blue and created a hint of the moon by painting with water and dabbing with a paper towel, removing some of the colour.  The stamps I used were from Lindsay Mason, apart from the robin and small trees, which were Clarity stamps. I used cut and dry and eggplant to edge the picture and the snow was created with a white Pen-touch pen.  Hope you like it.

Fowl Weather Challenge - Week 2

This month our theme is "Fowl Weather". This means you should create a scene that shows a bit of stormy weather (any kind from light rain to full-on tornado) and just to make it more fun please include birds in your scene - hence the name "Fowl Weather".

Your background and foreground images should be stamped or digi'd onto the paper to make a scene.  After the stamped scene is laid you may add dimensional aspects (this is a special note to all the card makers who build a scene with paper instead of stamped images).   

We have two very stormy cards to share as inspiration this week.

Craft a Scene Challenge - Fowl Weather

The weather in my part of the country (Pacific Northwest) has been frightful!  We have had thunder, lightening, torrential rains, and flooding.  With all this stormy I thought it would be a good idea to have a "Fowl Weather" challenge.
