Thanksgiving - Featured Designer Challenge by Wendy Mind

Products used:
Letterpress Thicket Plate (013), Dark Brown Ink (INK-01), Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists (Olive Vine, Walnut Gold, Candy Apple), Lifestyle Crafts Nesting Eyelet Circles (DC0153)
This little pail was made to give a little gift at Thanksgiving time.
I took a strip of card and put it through the Letterpress machine using the Thicket plate. Once this was dry, I spritzed with 3 different colors of glimmer mists.  Between each color, I set the mist using a heat tool.
I then inserted the strip of card into the pail and finished off with a little decoration on the outside of the pail.

Cut 2 cupcake stands and stick them together.
Cut out the body and backing card (both free hand drawn).
Lastly cut 1 love heart, 2 banners (one for a shadow effect) and a small triangle.











Roll each of the circles and wildflowers into a cone.

Stick to wildflower cone inside the circle cone.  These will form the turkey feathers.








Stick the stand together (it doesn’t matter which way).







Stick all of the feathers to the backing board then stick it to the stand.  I put a slight bend in the stands feet to make sure it is able to hold the weight of the turkey’s body.







Cut out the ovals and write what you are grateful for on each card.











Stick the body on then insert each card into the feathers.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

Halloween - Featured Designer Challenge by Ute Thenert


It´s Halloween!
I looked at the dies I had and what I could use for a Halloween card...this is the result.
The background paper is embossed, the die cuts are all distressed and stained with Ranger Ink in different colors. The QuicKutz Pumpkin is embossed by hand. Again I layered all with foam pads in different thickness.
