The Design Winner of the challenge will be featured across a double page spread in Craft Stamper magazine, will receive a winner's profile post here on the blog, and will have a Guest Designer slot in an upcoming challenge.

The second winner is our randomly chosen winner. This winner is selected at random from all eligible entries, and wins the Blog Challenge prize. This month, the prize is.....

Let me show you the card I created... I was craving some water coloring so I made this card :)

To make this card, I took a water color card stock. I stamped the floral image multiple times, twice along the lower edge and on the top right corner. I then simply water colored it keeping the spring colors in mind. To finish the card, I added some black splatter and stamped the sentiment.

I have used the following products from STAMPlorations For the birds and Sweetly stamp set. For coloring I used GansaiTambi Watercolors.

SPELLBINDERS - Flourished Fretwork by Becca Feeken

Hello dear friends! I feel so thrilled to be guesting with Spellbinders again. Today I am sharing the cards I created featuring the newest collection Flourished Fretwork by Becca Feeken I absolutely love these die sets because of the all the intricacies and layers of die cutting that can lead to making of a variety of designs. I have created cards featuring the sets "Shapeabilities Oval Coronet Etched Dies Flourished Fretwork" and "Shapeabilities Fluted Tracery Etched Dies Flourished Fretwork" 

Let me show the cards I created :) For my first set of cards, I used the "Shapeabilities Oval Coronet Etched Dies Flourished Fretwork" set. Initially I did not decide to make two cards but as I was die cutting, I realized I could make two designs using a combination of these dies.

Cards are simple to make, with diecutting using a bunch of patterned papers that work together and putting them together.
Here is the duo...

For my second card, I used the "Shapeabilities Fluted Tracery Etched Dies Flourished Fretwork"   set. I wanted to combine some alcohol ink background with die cut pieces. So I created two different backgrounds using a combination of inks.

I die cut the intricate dies using some glitter card stock and I wanted the background to be muted so I added a vellum layer. To add more interest I added some die cuts that some with Spellbinders Club Kits. 

Here is a closeup into my cards...

I have played these sets "Shapeabilities Oval Coronet Etched Dies Flourished Fretwork" and "Shapeabilities Fluted Tracery Etched Dies Flourished Fretwork"  Besides the new dies I have also used Die D-Lites Tallulah Etched Dies and  Cherish Large Die of the Month Kitfor the florals, die cuts from October 2018 Card Kit. For the sentiments I used STAMPlorations Better Together

  

I hope you were inspired by my creations. Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving me a comment :)Don't forget to check out the new dies HERE
