It’s Fiona’s last week with us in the Designer Spotlight and we would like to say a huge thank you for all of your creations over the past month. It has been a real pleasure to have you along with us :-)

Fiona made a card using Tim Holtz Layering Stencils and a Funky Nature Die Set. She used Bundled SageEvergreen Bough and Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide Inks and Speckled Egg Distress Oxide Ink Spray for the background. She used a sentiment from Tim Holtz Ideaology Clippings Sentiment Sticker Book 

Andrea used a Brutus Monroe Rainy Day Creative Card to make her tag. She used AALL & Create’s Tag It Yourself Die Set for the tag shape and incorporated patterned paper using Tim Holtz’s Large Collage Strips.

Barbara was inspired by one of the most spectacular atmospheric events: the rainbow! She created two tags using the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Wheel stencil in the mini version (set 59). For the colors, she chose Ranger Distress Oxide Ink pads and the sentiments come from Tim Holtz Clear Stamps and Stencil Wildflowers, Mesh and Typo and, Tim Holtz Clear Stamps and Stencil Perspective, Flourish and Latticework.

Emma created a Stampers Anonymous Etcetera Tag inspired by the UK weather because come rain (and we get a lot of that), or shine, whatever the weather, as a country we have always celebrated momentous occasions with a party. She chose the upcoming VE Day events as her theme and used a selection of Tim Holtz products including Correspondence Paper stash, Paper Dolls, Bauble Findings coloured with Alcohol Inks and die cuts from Sizzix.

Kath was inspired by the saying “April Showers bring May Flowers” and created a card using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Flower Field, The Gent, Funky Floral 1 Thinlits and Simon Says Stamp Duck Trio Wafer Dies. She added detail to the umbrella using Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Perfect Plaids and used Note Quotes for the sentiment.

Macarena made a rainy weather tag using Tim Holtz Idea-ology Halloween Backdrops background and Tim Holtz Sizzix Gentleman die as a main character with a cute umbrella stamp from Simon Says Stamp Follow The Rainbows set.

Meihsia was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Stamperia Shabby Rose 8×8 Paper on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz MINI STENCIL SET 5 and Tim Holtz idea-ology PAPER DOLLS MiNi.

So now it’s YOUR turn to get out your inks, paints and all things arty and start creating! We are looking forward to seeing what you make!
