Contest Winner

From ScrapFriends

 

Winner of the Scrapfriends.com contest sponsored by Craf-T Products which ran the month of May. Was BrendaLea Abbott. She writes. I took an older Scrapbook that was an odd size and cut it down to fit the modern 8-1/2 x 11" scrapbook pages. In doing so, I re-covered the entire SB with two Kraft Book Covers. I then rubber stamped and all over design of two different leaves using 3 different colors of ink cubes. Then I decoupauged the vintage newspaper and the mulberry paper on top. I rubber stamped the various images and the tag. Tied three kinds of fibers to the tag. Using the Craf-T Chalk I distressed and aged the images and the quote that is stamped onto tissue paper. Two of the fibers were very shiny and the off-white one was too stark, So I used the Craf-T Metallic Rub-On to give it a shine and tone down the color. Because I stamped the postage cancellation stamp and the quote using copper ink, I used the Metallic Rub-On Walnut (set #3) around the outside edge of the newspaper, so that it would also have a bit of shine to it. The watch face was encircled using Sparkle Gel, and the inside was covered with Diamond Glaze. Then all images and the tag were decoupauged onto the cover.

Congratulation BrendaLea you did a wonderful job!

 

Scrapfriends.com ran a March Madness contest which the challenge for March 7-13 was to create a 1 or 2 page layout using a minimum of two of the following elements. Metallic Rub-Ons, Chalk, acrylic paint, wax/faux wax. Craf-T Products was honored to pick the winner. It was a tough decision because there were lots of great entries. Our winner was Odette Lyon.

Odette made a three page layout here and we show two of them. She used a cotton wool ball and rubbed circles of "Dark Brown", "Red" and "Yellow" chalk all over the Bazzil card stock (the title and each of the matt pages) Then using a clean cotton wool she smudged them all together to blend them better. She then used a cotton bud with "Emerald" metallic rub-on on it, ran it roughly and randomly along the edges of the cardstock and then in the cut out bit of each letter in the title. She also writes that there are 8 photos hidden under the yellow tulips.

Congratulations Odette you did a great job!
