WWC159 - The Winners!

Hello and Happy Tuesday!  It's time to announce the Rock Star and Rockers for Marsha's "All About Christmas" challenge.  But first, we'd like to thank everyone who played along with us.  The entries this week were awesome!  You are making it harder and harder on us to make our choices as we think you are all stars.  Well done to all.

Marsha's choice for our Watercooler Rock Star is Shani Thomas' (Paperesse) super cute Santa and Rudolph selfie design.  Following the winner are the Watercooler Artists choices for the Watercooler Rockers.

#1 Shani Thomas (Paperesse)

Marsha's Winner:  It was love at first sight when I saw this adorable Santa taking a selfie.  Shani's combination of image, colors and papers made for a perfect background.  Her coloring of the image is wonderful.  It makes me "smile" every time I see it.  Well done!

Congratulations, Shani!  Here is your badge to proudly display on your blog designating you as our Watercooler Rock Star.

Now it's on to the Watercooler Artists choices for our Watercooler Rockers.  They are shown in no particular order.

#3 - Ella (mojeszydelkoweprzygody)

Kath's Choice:  Great interpretation of the sketch she used.

#11 Pat K.

Penny's Choice:  I love the rich tartan background and the incredible Copic colouring on the cute little Scottie. This is a Christmas card I would buy.

#6 Tip Top

Gail's Choice:  It's the cutest packaging and would be as thrilling to receive as whatever is in it. 

#18 Sue

Helen's Choice:  Sue's ink blending is beautiful with that sparkle which allows the white die cut holly to really shine!

#14 Trina P

Heidi's Choice:  Trina has paid so much attention to detail in this gorgeous clean and simple card. Adding the gloss to the green holly leaves really makes them stand out and adds to the realism while the die-cut sentiment is stunning.

#15 Tinstar Designs

Tenia's Choice:  Love Cornelia's super awesome and GORGEOUS Neon Christmas Card!! Just gorgeous!!

#2 Marina

Charlotte's Choice:  Marina has made a really sweet clean and simple Christmas card. The little snowman is adorable and I love that wonderful background.

Congratulations Ella, Pat, Tip Top, Sue, Trina, Tinstar Designs and Marina.  Here is your badge to proudly display on your blog designating you as one of our Watercooler Rockers.

There you have our Rock Star and Watercooler Rockers lineup for this week!  Be sure to come back tomorrow, March 7th, for our next Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.  You won't want to miss out on all the wonderful designs by our Watercooler Artists.

WWC159 - Marsha's "All About Christmas" Challenge

Woo Hoo!  Marsha is hosting our popular "All About Christmas" challenge this week.  Time to begin working on those Christmas cards that you know you don't want to have to make at the last minute.  And do we ever have some inspiration for you!

Before we begin with the challenge, however, we have some bad news and some good news to share.  The bad news is that we are losing Judy Markowitz who is needed at home because of family health issues.  We will miss her creativity and happy presence.

The good news is that we are welcoming Tenia Nelson to our group of Watercooler Artists.  Tenia hails from Denver, Colorado and we've been wowed by her edgy and eye-catching creations in previous challenges.
