Winners for Challenge #335 - Recipe for Thinking of You Warmly

Thanks to all the guest "chefs" who tried out our Recipe Challenge last week! Those warm colours mixed with the metallics were gorgeous! A real tip of the hat to Autumn! It was very hard to pick winners, but that's our job, so we did it and here they are:

Our Top Pick is: Deb Horst 

Deb created a beautiful "caffeinated collage"! Her ink layering in the background collage is just beautiful and includes some dry embossing, highlighted with ink! There is even a metallic charm included, but nothing looks out of place. And the texture that Deb has incorporated is just scrumptious! This card is so skillfully done, it really deserves the Top Pick! Congratulations, Deb.

And our Featured Artist this week:

Our Featured Artist is: LeAnne Pugliese

LeAnne, our Featured Artist this week and winner, used the elements of the recipe in very creative ways! That orange  background paper is stunning and those two tags of differing sizes and all the autumn bits you have displayed on your card are remarkable! Also there is no shortage of delicious texture, which adds so much depth, as in the cross stitch embossed border down the side and the random embossing on the tag! Well earned Featured Artist award!  Congratulations, LeAnne!

And we think you may want to check out the following Honorable Mentions on their sites:

Challenge #335 - Recipe for Thinking of You Warmly

I'm really excited about this Recipe Challenge because it has so many elements in it that I love to create with. That's probably because I created this challenge! But tags! Warm tones for October! Metallics! Embossed texture! It's all my favourites in one creation! I hope you love it too! 

You have to include all the elements in the recipe on your creation, but how you do that is up to you! Have fun and start your ovens, er...stamp sets!

We are so pleased to welcome our fifteenth guest designer, Annette Elias, (who was our Featured Artist on Challenge #333 a couple of weeks back) for this challenge.

And here is the beautiful card she made for it:

I wonder if the other Design Team members loved this challenge? Let's see what they did with it?
