This is Tracy’s<\/a> 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 having you along with us :-)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tracy<\/a> loves to take macro pics of nature and she used one of her own photos for the focus of todays card.

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Andrea<\/a> saw this sweet old retro van on vacation on year and took a picture of it. She used the photo as the background for her Dina Wakley White Media Journal<\/a> page. She also used Tim Holtz’s Stitches stencil<\/a> and a sentiment from Dina Wakley’s Collage Collective 2, Vol. 1<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a slimline card featuring old family photos. The circle photo frames were die cut with the Simon Says Stamp Repeating Circles die<\/a>. The background was stamped with SSS Anna’s Flowers<\/a> and Crackle Background stamps<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cheiron<\/a> used a variation of a photo…an x-ray on her card this week. She stamped the skeleton from the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Examination<\/a> set using Alcohol Lift Ink<\/a> onto a piece of Ranger Yupo<\/a> paper that had been inked with Pitch Black<\/a> Alcohol Ink. She used the same stamps and Distress Inks to create her background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Emma<\/a> loves using photos on her projects that can tell a story and with Halloween just around the corner, she chose to use an image from Tim Holtz’s Halloween Paper Dolls<\/a> as the focal point on a Mini Etcetera Tag<\/a> and placed her gypsy girl on a Web Trim<\/a>, standing between open gates, created using Sizzix Gatekeepers Thinlits Die by Tim Holtz<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> created a birthday card dedicated to the bygone era of photography, the days of black and white photos, Kodak Brownie and Polaroid cameras, way before colour film, digital or phone cameras and selfies. She used Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Inventor 8<\/a>, Tapestry<\/a>, Dearly Departed<\/a> and Simple Sayings<\/a>, a photo from Idea-ology Found Relatives<\/a>, Film Strip Ribbon<\/a> and Tim Holtz\/Sizzix Alphanumeric Classic Lower<\/a> and Swirling Stars<\/a> Thinlits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lols<\/a> used a Lawn Fawn Polaroid Frame Die<\/a> and popped in a photo of her pup, Jimmy. She decorated a Mini Etcetera Chipboard Tag<\/a> using a Tim Holtz Paper Pack <\/a>and a Studio Katia Mini Paws Stencil<\/a>. She used a Simon Says Stamp Paws Die<\/a> and Tim Holtz Film Strip Ribbon<\/a> to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> made a tag with some contrasting colors. She embossed in white the Tim Holtz Specimen<\/a> stamps set using Simon Says Stamp White Embossing Powder<\/a> on a dark grey background.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> headed to one of her art journals to share some photos of her grey hair journey. She used Inky Antics Quirky Alphabet<\/a> and Brave and Good <\/a>stamps, along with Simon Says Stamp’s STAMPtember Deco Squares stencil<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using the vintage portrait from Tim Holtz Found Relatives<\/a> and decorated it with Idea-Ology Lace Baseboard Frame<\/a> and Tim Holtz Keepsakes Ephemera<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
