It is\u00a0Terelisa’s\u00a0<\/a><\/span>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 :-)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Terelisa <\/a>was at first frightened by the idea of having to use only one color and its nuances … then she started to draw the spider and to color it with Distress Ink<\/a> in various shades of brown, and after that her project was pure fun. She created the cool spider web with wire and hot glue,<\/a>\u00a0and a nice broom to a little witch.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Halloween without an illuminated pumpkin is not Halloween and Terelisa created a pumpkin with a led light<\/a> and a ping pong ball, covered in Tim Holtz tissue wrap<\/a>. How clever!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Andrea<\/a> made a collection of monochrome color swatches to organize some her favorite watercolors and water-soluble crayons.\u00a0 She used Waffle Flower’s Swatch Tag stamp and die combo pack<\/a>, their Color Wheel stamp and die combo pack<\/a>, and their Swatches<\/a> stamp.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Anna-Karin<\/a>\u00a0went with orange this week and had such fun making an alcohol ink lift background, with ghost leaves stamped with Tim Holtz’s Nature’s Wonder set<\/a>. The detailed leaves were die cut with Tim’s new Sizzix Skeleton Leaves Thinlits dies<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/a>Barbara<\/a> has been inspired by the autumn and its colors and has created two Tiny houses<\/a> by Tim Holtz Sizzix. She’s added\u00a0 Skeleton leaves<\/a>\u00a0dies and Paper dolls<\/a> and painted with Distress oxides<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cheiron<\/a> created the monochrome background of her card with all her favorite blue-green Distress Inks and Oxides including Mermaid Lagoon<\/a>, Peacock Feathers<\/a> and Twisted Citron<\/a>. She added gorgeous blooms and stems from the Funky Floral 3<\/a> and Funky Foliage<\/a>\u00a0and a word from the Shadow Script 2<\/a> Sizzix Thinlit dies.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Emma<\/a>\u00a0created a monochrome panel using the classic combination of black and ivory. She used Halloween Worn Wallpaper<\/a> as a background for her stamped image of the eccentric but oh-so spooky Mr Bones<\/a> before adding idea-ology pieces, including a Halloween Quote Token<\/a> and Quote Chip<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Kath<\/a> created a card in shades of grey using the Alcohol Lift Ink<\/a> technique with Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Nature’s Wonder<\/a>, Diamonds Shifter Layering Stencil<\/a> and Tim Holtz\/Sizzix Fall Foliage<\/a> and Tiny Tattered Florals Thinlits<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Macarena<\/a>\u00a0made a black\/grey\/silver canvas using leftovers of Tim Holtz Sizzix Ornate Frame#2<\/a> die and Tim Holtz Sizzix Alphanumeric Marquee<\/a> die. She used a lot of Dylusions Black Marble paint<\/a> and highlighted the texture with Prima Old Silver Metallique Wax<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Maura<\/a>\u00a0headed off into the blue with Andrea Ockey Parr’s Brave and Good stamp set<\/a> by Inky Antics, along with Simon Says Stamp’s Irregular Dot<\/a> and Abstract Triangle<\/a> stencils, and the Tim Holtz Twisted stencil<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media Halloween tag using Tim Holtz Sizzix Lumber 3D Texture Fades Embossing Folder<\/a> on the backgound and decorated the tag with Idea-Ology Paper Dolls Ancestors Paperie<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sandra <\/a>went for a dark card perfect for Halloween, and used the Halloween Collage Paper<\/a> for her background and added texture with Grit-Paste<\/a> and foiled the Drip Drop Edged die<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Zoey<\/a>\u00a0used the beautiful Simon Says Clear Stamps BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS<\/a>\u00a0and a bunch of orange-yellowish Distress Markers<\/a> to create this birthday card<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n
