WWC181 - The Winners

Yay!  It's Tuesday and time to announce our Watercooler Rock Star and Watercooler Rockers for Kath's Feminine "Anything Goes" challenge.  But first, we'd like to thank all those who played along with us.  Your entries this week were fantastic!  You all continue to make it harder and harder on us to make our choices as we think you are all stars.  Well done!

Kath's choice for our Watercooler Rock Star is Lee Ann Barrett's beautiful floral and bird card design.  Well done!  Following the winner are the Watercooler Artists choices for the Watercooler Rockers.

#2 Lee Ann Barrett

Kath's Winner:  I think the coloring is amazing and I love the flowers and birds.

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

Next up are the wonderful creations that caught the eye of the other Watercooler Artists for our Watercooler Rockers.  They are shown in no particular order.

#35 Angie Cimbalo (Cimbacreativefun)

Heidi's Choice:  Angie has created a gorgeous card with that image and colouring. Not to mention the perfect doodling she's done, recreating those dots and swirls. There is nothing about this card that I don't absolutely LOVE.

#33 MichelleW

Marsha's Choice:  Like Michelle, I love flowers and magnolias have a special significance for me. Her choice of bright pink really makes them stand out against the white background. It's a beautiful feminine birthday card.

#30 Mimi

Gail's Choice:  I love the humour!  It's a simple design, but so effective.  And, I've had that song in my head all day.

#40 Mugdha

Tristan's Choice:   I love the use of quilling for the leaves and the brown corrugated circle which grounds the blue flowers. Lot's of fabulous textures.

#13 Stephanie L

Charlotte's Choice:  Stephanie has created a stunning one layer CAS card. The colouring on the fun image is spot on, and the splatters really help to balance and finish off the card.

#16 Gwendolyn Goh (Desperate Housewife Draft)

Helen's Choice:   Gwendolyn's card is so soft and feminine and using the cross stick canvas die really does take it up a notch! Well done!

#21 Karen Brown

Crystal's Choice:  Karen’s teacups we’re so cheerfully painted in pastel watercolor sand highlighted by gold embossing. Fun and beautiful!

Congratulations Angie, Michelle, Mimi, Mugdha, Stephanie, Gwendolyn and Karen  Here is your badge to proudly display on your blog designating you one of our Watercooler Rockers.

There you have our Watercooler Rock Star and Watercooler Rockers for this week.  Be sure to come back tomorrow, August 8th, for our next Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.  You won't want to miss all the wonderful designs by our Watercooler Artists.
