Woodware USA Challenge#9 - Hearts!!

Welcome to our 9th challenge here at Woodware USA! We are so happy to have had so many participants in the last few weeks. We hope that you are starting to see all of the amazing images that you can find at Woodware USA.

A few fast facts about Woodware USA:

1. Woodware USA stamps are designed by Woodware in the UK, and they are distributed here in the states.
2. They are manufactured here in the US out of the finest photo polymer.
3. It is a small operation with a lot of heart!

We are also excited to let you in on a new secret:

THERE ARE NEW STAMPS COMING YOUR WAY IN THE WEEKS AHEAD!

Our challenge this week is to use hearts on your creation. You can do so many things with hearts, and it doesn't have to be Valentine's Day all the time! We have an amazing design team here, and I am thankful every day for their hard work. Please leave them some love if you can!

Some simple rules:

1. Create a new project for the challenge.
2. Include a direct link by using IN-Linkz.
3. Get one entry in our monthly drawing and an extra if you use a Woodware USA image.

Now, on to the creations:

Challenge #9 - You're a Hoot!


Hi All,

Have you tried out our challenge for this week yet? Today's the last day of our samples for a "Monochromatic Cards" challenge! Haven't the girls done great with this one!!


I used "Owl Greetings" for my card and the "Purple Toes" Inky Links ink to sponge around the edges. I have to say, I am loving these little pads, the colors are unique and similar to chalk ink. Super value from Woodware!!
To get the embossed scallop around my owl image, I first cut out my circle, then I embedded the next smaller sized scallop die into the circle and ran it through my Big Shot using the sandwich recipe to emboss but not cut through the paper. I left the die embedded in the circle and then sponged on the "Purple Toes" ink.

My owl is colored in with Copics and I used a white gel pen to add faux stitching and highlights to complete the card.

Be sure to come back tomorrow when we introduce a brand new challenge and a whole new week of samples each day!!

Hugs,
Anne
