We have a winner!

I am so excited, TAC selected my card for the 'Spring has Sprung' contest winner! I never expected this entry to win, but it did and I am honored.
This card is simple. Fold a half a sheet of the palest green from Bazzill Greens to make a standard top fold card. Using Aloe Vera VersaMagic, ink the edges and stamped repeatedly the diamond shape from Reinforcers to make the borders. Stamp a chick, from Hey Chick, randomly on a pale yellow panel from Bazzill Yellows using Thatched Straw VersaMagic ink. Tear the bottom and ink the edges of the yellow panel. Then stamp a different chick on the ivory panel using Gingerbread VersaMagic. Tear bottom of panel and ink edges with Aloe Vera. Stamp rectangle reinforcer as shown. Set aside until the chick is completely dry, then color the chick with Thatched Straw ink, from the pad, using a cotton swab. Mat with a medium shade from Bazzill Browns and tear bottom edge. Adhere to yellow panel as shown. Stamp rectangle reinforcer on yellow panel. Add big eyelets to reinforcers and tie ribbon. Adhere panel to card front. Stamp sentiment as shown with Gingerbread ink. That's it.

We have a winner!

I won a contest! Each month TAC gives demonstrators five contest catagories and asks for submissions. Well, if you read my previous post you know that I have been sending stuff for awhile now and have had little or no recognition. It was a bummer but I just kept sending. This month I won the 'doodle designs' contest catagory! Here is my photo. The card is Ivory Ultra Smooth stamped with Fanciful Flowers and Artsy Elements using Landscape, Raw Sienna, Bordeaux and French Lilac Palette Pads. I then folded a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 sheet of acetate on center to make a standard card. I tucked the ivory card into the acetate card and bound them at the top with ribbon. The sentiment is from Trust In the Lord. It is stamped on ivory and cut out with the coluzzle nested circle template. I matted the circle and adhered it to the acetate layer with a pop it dot. Lastly I doodled on the acetate with crystal lacquer and sprinkled with prisma glitter. It is hard to see the acetate layer in the photos, but it is a quick and easy effect with lots of WOW power in real life. I am so thrilled about winning a contest! It just goes to show you that persistance pays off! Thanks for looking and celebrating with me! Wanna see some other great TAC contest winners? Click here.
