Orange Eye Candy + A Weekend Challenge!


Hi there! I hope your Friday is moving along well and you find some creative time this weekend. As I've mentioned all week, our first Guest Designer, the super-talented Tanis Giesbrecht, is here today to share some SRM Sticker love.



I've worked with Tanis for a few years now and I'm proud to call her my friend. She's an incredible card maker -- she's a Caardvarks Crew Member, Salt Faith Designer, and Unity Stamp Co. Illustrator. Her talent runs deep, my friends, deep! You can view more of her work at her blog, Paper Canvas.

I asked Tanis to create a few cards with the color orange as her focus. Although I never wear orange, or buy decorative items in orange, for some reason I *love* crafting with it. Tanis said that she feels the same way, it's her favorite crafty color, too! Here's what she has for us today;




I love how she used 4 different SRM Stickers in a grid pattern for this card. It's neat and organized, and she let the stickers serve as her focal points.




Using one of our long stickers as a band across the whole card was a brilliant idea. So pretty, too!

Thank you so much, Tanis. You work has always inspired me and many others. You can see more SRM Sticker cards by Tanis when we sponsor a Caardvarks challenge on February 20th. In fact, the Caardvarks Crew will showcase a full gallery dedicated to SRM Sticker creations!

--------------------

Now, about that challenge. :) You are challenged to create a scrapbook page, altered item, card (whatever you like!), using the color orange. And...be sure to use stickers! They don't have to SRM Stickers. Strut your stuff, get crafty, and link up your entry via Mr. Linky below. I'll announce our challenge winner on Tuesday. Have your entry linked by Sunday night at Midnight, PST.

Mr. Linky is pretty easy to use. Enter your name then the url address of your blog post which features your entry. Be sure to link us to your blog post and not your main blog address. Have fun, can't wait to see what you have in store!
