2013 Artisan Design Team – Artisan Wednesday Wow – Beware Banner AND a new Feature you’re going to want to see

Hi! Welcome Back!

So, what did you think of last week? AMAZING, right? I LOVE this Design Team!

Every Wednesday for the
next year, the 2013 Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team will be bringing you
FUN, new, exclusive projects – shared here on our blogs. Are you
looking forward to it as much as we are???? I know we sure hope so!
Maybe you just came from Jane's blog – that girl ROCKS! If not, make sure you follow the hop all the way around to check out all 10 projects!

My idea for this "scary" little banner was for it to go on maybe my bookshelf, or over a mirror – maybe in the bathroom. It's not very big, but it has a LOT of personality!

I cut my Chevron Ribbon vertically so it would be thinner and fray a little – I LOVE the way it looks with this. I also love the little Washi tape flags. The ovals with the letters were stamped with the Dictionary stamp and the ABC-123 Sketch alphabet.

OK – NEW FEATURE TIME!!!!!!!

HIS AND HERS STAMPING

 The other day before I left to run an errand, my husband told me he wanted to stamp!!!! So I told him to go for it. When I came home, he had created this all by himself!

  He cut out the label by hand ( he wasn't sure where to find the right punch), the center of it was carefully punched out too – and the skull was cut out and on dimensionals. Those are rhinestones in the eyes too – all his idea. Not too shabby, huh?

   I asked him if he would be ok with me using it as an "inspiration piece", a "jumping off point" to create a Wednesday project. He said he thought it was a great idea. I assured him that it wasn't to "show him up" or discount his idea or anything like that – he was SO EXCITED about the idea. Here is what I came up with….

Here is some up close detail for ya – of course I had to add a LOT more – Houndstooth embossing folder, 3 tone sponging, black embossing powder, ribbon and more rhinestones!

and here we are – Side by Side!

What do you think????? He is SO EXCITED about this post and is looking forward to reading all the comments. I think it would be fun to do this EVERY month!

COLOR COMBO – Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black

TIP -  Black embossing powder will "step up" almost any project!

Hope you enjoy all of the AMAZING projects that the rest of the team
has for you today. These are some special projects, so please let the
team know what you think!

 

Hope you have a great day!!!
