The Watercooler Rockers


Marsha's Rocker:   Angie's cityscape is a perfect take on the inspiration photo.  Love the black and white.  The hearts are a nice finishing touch.  


Dawn's Rocker:  Lesley has created an incredible mixed media project.  All the different elements, mediums and textures make it stunning.  Plus Lesley has picked the perfect frame for her piece of artwork.    


Michelle's Rocker:   Cornelia has created the most amazing CAS card.  I just love how she coloured that garbage can!  Such a fun card, Cornelia!   


Karen's Rocker:  Kylie created a darling little scene that exudes tons of fun personality.  Animals and critters work so well on masculine cards...wonderful birthday card! 


Tristan's Rocker:  Joyce has created a paws-itively adorable card.  Her colouring and layout with the offset panel over that checked DSP is fabulous. 

  
Heidi's Rocker:  Linda's colouring is spot-on as always.  What I love is the design of the card.  The placement of the various papers and the angles throughout the card continue the suggestion of a carpenter.  The combination of ice-cream sticks and ribbons offer the perfect finishing touch.     

Congratulations Angie, Lesley, Cornelia, Kylie, Joyce and Linda M!  Here is your badge to proudly display on your blog designating you as one of our Watercooler Rockers.
