It\u2019s Cassie’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 to have you along with us :-)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cassie<\/a> used the Dina Wakley Grungy Stars Stamp Set<\/a> to make her card. The stars and background are colored with Tim Holtz Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers, Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed and Carved Pumpkin Distress Inks <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Andrea<\/a> made a tag highlighting one of her favorite quotes about the moon. She also incorporated stars with Simon’s Scattered Stars<\/a> stencil. She used Tim Holtz’s Photobooth<\/a> images and Documented<\/a> stamp set, along with Whimsy Stamps’ Boho Rainbow Dies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a tag with stars in many shapes and sizes. The background was stamped with Simon Says Stamp Star To Star<\/a> and Falling Snow<\/a> background stamps. The glittery stars were die cut with the Simon Says Stamp Stars set<\/a>, inked and coated with Stickles Glitter Gel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Barbara<\/a> made a card inspired by the moon and stars. She used various Ranger Distress Spray Stains<\/a> for the background. To draw the moon she chose Dina Wakley Ranger White Gesso<\/a>, Distress Crayons Villainous Potion ( set 14)<\/a>, Chipped Sapphire<\/a> and Picket Fence<\/a>. The center image and sentiment came from Tim Holtz Stampers Anoymous Theories stamp set<\/a>, and for the stars, she used Sizzix’s Falling Stars Thinlits Dies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Cheiron<\/a> created a starry sky background using Tim Holtz Distress Oxides<\/a>, Sterling Foundry Wax<\/a> and some Shimmer Spritz<\/a> for her background. She added elements from the SIzzix Christmas Cutouts<\/a> and a sentiment from the Noteworthy<\/a> stamp set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Emma<\/a> loves anything to do with the moon and stars, and used this inspiration to create a Mini Etcetera Tag<\/a> with a Father’s Day theme. She combined the Stampers Anonymous\/Tim Holtz Moon Mask Stencils<\/a> with a stamp from the Life Quotes<\/a> set and dies from Sizzix\/Tim Holtz including The Count<\/a> and Falling Stars<\/a> to bring her scene to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Kath<\/a> chose the sun as the theme for her card, inspired by the recent Summer sunshine. She used Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Tiny Prints<\/a> for the background, Sizzix Layered Plaid<\/a>, Alphanumeric Bulletin<\/a> and Wildflower Stems 1<\/a> Thinlits and Idea-ology Specimen Remnant Rubs<\/a> to decorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Macarena<\/a> made a magical card using resin castingf of moon and stars from Prima Marketing Nocturnal Elements mould<\/a> and some Tim Holtz Sizzix Brushstroke Flowers<\/a> and Mini Flowers<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Maura<\/a> headed to her art journal to create a celestial theme. She started with a watercolor background using Daniel Smith Watercolors such as Quinacridone Violet <\/a> and added a big moon with Tim Holtz’s Moon Mask<\/a>. Then she added planets, stars and a rocket with the Simon Says Stamp Space Journey wafer dies. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Stamperia ALCHEMY 12×12 Paper<\/a> on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz Idea-ology Quote Chip Labels<\/a> and Tim Holtz Idea-ology ODDS AND ENDS Embellishments<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Zoey<\/a> used Distress Ink Reinkers<\/a> + Distress Oxide Ink<\/a> to create her galaxy background. She then stamped Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamps Floral Trims<\/a> and embossed it with Gold Embossing Powder<\/a>. She fussy cut the flowers and adhered them to the main tag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
