Hello Lawnscapers! Laurel here and welcome to another Lawnscaping Challenge. We have a fun challenge in store for you today, but please don't be alarmed or afraid. It really is fun. Just wait until you see what the Design Team and Guest Designer created... I was absolutely blown away by what they created and almost tempted to pull my card back, lol! We are challenging you to try and new technique. Any technique. It can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be. Maybe it is something you have seen and wanted to try. Maybe you bought a supply, like an embossing folder, with the intent or trying embossing! Now is the time!!!!!
We are sponsored by the fabulous Lawn Fawn! They have generously offered the winner of a stamp set of their choice!
Before we get to the design team creations, let's check out what our October Guest Designer, the sweet and fab Lisa Spangler created! Lisa used distress strains for her background, watercolored with distress markers AND stamped on acetate! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this!
And now to check out what our design team created. Be sure to click on each of their names to be taken to their blogs to get all the details on their projects. I know personally I have learned a lot of new techniques I just can't wait to try....
