Challenge #294 - Spring Clean the Stash

What's your scrap stash like? Is is overflowing with items you were going to use, but didn't? Extra die cuts? Small pieces of that beautiful patterned paper that you just couldn't throw away? We thought we'd give you an excuse to use them! The theme of our challenge is Spring Clean the Stash and we'll let you play that out any way you want as long as you use something from your craft stash in your project and let us know what it was!

Winners for Challenge #293 - Recipe in Pinks & Pearls

Thanks to all the test craft cooks who tried out our Recipe Challenge last week! The wonderful variety of entries we had was so enjoyable. It was interesting to see everyone's interpretation of the word "distressed", and those blossoms were gorgeous, as were all the shades of pink! We loved every minute! Now, down to business: here are the winners of As You See It Challenge #293:

Our Top Pick is: Jenny Engelke

Ever see two unlikely designs that just work so well together? Jenny has taken the Hues of Happiness floral designs and the Like an Animal animal prints and textures and married them with pops of gold accents to cook up our recipe in a stunning way! And the gold pearls are such an elegant embellishment for the finishing touch! Beautiful work, Jenny!


And our Featured Artist this week:

Our first Featured Artist is: Kelly Schimer

Kelly's beautiful die-cut hollyhocks are featured on her artistically laid out project. The Design Team loved all the shades of pink in both the hollyhocks and in the background paper! And that background paper fulfilled so many of the challenge elements on it's own: shades of pink, embossing folder and distressed paper! The multicoloured little pearls added a beautiful final touch to a project worthy of Featured Artist! Congratulations, Kelly!

Challenge #293 - Recipe in Pinks & Pearls

When I came up with this challenge, I was definitely thinking a bit shabby chic, but that is not a limiting factor here. You can use any style you want as long as you include all 5 elements of the recipe that you see on the Challenge Banner below! Please have some fun with it!! 

You have to include all the elements in the recipe on your creation, but how you do that is up to you! Have fun and start your ovens, er...stamp sets!

We are so pleased to welcome our ninth guest designer, Jen Mitchell, (who was our Featured Artist on Challenge #291) for this challenge.
