Thank you ladies for sharing with us your talent.
Please remember to leave some love for all
 the wonderful ladies from 7 Dots Studio! 
Thank you so much to this uber-talented team!!!

7 Dots Studio have sponsored this coveted prize
for one of our ten Epic Winners!


I mean WHO in their right mind 
would not want to win this?!?

I am excited too that we have the delightful Tusia Lech
as our 3rd Guest Judge, judging {as owner of 7Dots Studio}



I love all kinds of media – if I would have to define my style, I would say that media
 are the only constant thing. My favourite colours are fresh, bold greens, blues & pinks,
 but at the same time I just love delicate, pale hues of beige, rose & white.
 However there is something in my projects that can be found always 
– a positive, feminine style.

Scrapbooking fills my whole life – it is all around me – in my private life & in my job 
& career. I love the process of creation – I have created things since early
 childhood – all kinds of handmade things always attracted me. I cannot
 imagine my life without making some art. Even if I leave for a weekend,
 I always take my small “art-bag”, filled with art-journal supplies

. I am lucky enough to be a designer in a few very creative places.
 I love drinking coffee, reading books, walking through the forest, 
watching flowers on the meadow, basking in the autumn sun & 
being deep in my inner world. I can say that I am happy person 
& wouldn't change a single thing in my life.

We are past half-way through the month now
Have your got your entry in?!?

We are truly blessed too to have the wonderful owner of 2Crafty,
Vanessa Tiberti, joining us this month as our 2nd Guest Judge!


As the owner of 2Crafty Chipboard, I don’t get much time to craft anymore,
which is a shame & I miss it very much.  However,  before I began 2Crafty in 2006,
 I was predominately a card maker who sold my creations in my father’s pharmacy.
 After the sudden loss of my Father-in-law in 2005, I began scrapbooking 
by creating a Remembrance Album for the family to look back on. 

 At a local craft show a Laser Cutter was being demonstrated & my mind went
 into overdrive with the possibilities of what this machine was capable of!  
 I gave up my corporate HR/payroll job & embarked on creating 2Crafty Chipboard.!! 

 I truly love this industry & what it brings to peoples lives.
 I am so fortunate to have one of the best International Design Teams working for me
& they inspire me daily to continue to create beautiful & versatile products. 
 I’m thrilled to be able to sponsor & judge this wonderful event
 & look forward to seeing what everyone creates!


Almost half-way through the month now!
Time to get your entry in if you haven't already!!
HAPPY CREATING!!!

Lindy’s Stamp Gang is the creative” baby” of Lindy Plakinger. 
She passed away in 2008 after bravely battling illness. 
She was a self-made cartoonist, loved drawing, crafting, 
designing new products, and creating her funny cartoon characters!

conventions across the US, demo-ing to her heart’s content
 with her sister & giggle partner, Vicki! 

Lindy’s Stamp Gang will continue, as was her hope & dream. 
Her husband & daughter have taken over the company,

My classes are primarily focused on discovery of mediums & techniques both
 in the Mixed Media world & Scrapbooking/Crafting. I am a technique Junkie 
which always takes me to a road of discovery myself,  which in turn I provide to
 my students. My passion is teaching but more importantly it is my mission in
 live to enliven others & allow them to discover their hidden talents.

 I love watching my students find their new self expression in a piece of art 
especially when at the beginning they feel constrained. I have the privilege
 to travel around the world to share my passion!
