SUO Challenge 110, Marker Fun – Our Top 3!

Thanks to everyone who participated in our challenge to feature a card using any kind of Stampin' Up! markers. Thanks especially to our Top 3 whom we felt did the best job of capturing our theme for the week!  Click on the pictures of their projects to go to their blogs or galleries for more details.

 

Joanne James. What a great coloring technique Joanne showed off with her project.  Embossing first with white on the dark background and then coloring in part of the images with Blendabilities creates a gorgeous design, and Joanne did it beautifully.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jodi McKinney. What a cute winter shaker card!  We would be thrilled to get this fun card in our mail boxes!

Jodi McKinney.  We loved the neutral colors in this delightfully vintage collage. Jodi's shading and stamping made this card just gorgeous.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heidi Weaver. We lvoe the picture frame and all the bright colors that the darker neutral background show off so well.  The say that Heidi scrunched up her leaves to mimic those in a pumpkin patch was delightful.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cindy Brumbaugh.  The turquoise looks so perfect and just makes the leaves pop in this beautiful Clean and Simple card.  We liked that Cindy not only referred to the original card which she CASEd, but also included a photo of it on her blog.  Nice touch!
