WWC255 - The Watercooler Rock Star and Rockers

Thanks so much for all the wonderful Masculine cards you linked up to Marsha's Anything Goes with a Masculine Twist challenge.  We loved seeing so many varieties of styles and colours.  You Rock!

And now for the choices of Rock Star and Rockers, made by Marsha and the remaining Watercooler Artists:

  The Watercooler Rock Star

Kate (Rijacki's Workshop)

Marsha's Rock Star:  Rijacki has created a wonderful scene full of adventures for a young boy.  I love how she blended the colors from the patterned paper with the colors she used for the image.  The fussy cutting is awesome and makes the scene come together nicely.

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

The Watercooler Rockers

Diane (Nellies Nest)

Karen's Choice:  Diane has created a fun yet dramatic card.  I love the black and white color scheme, the simple yet interesting die-cuts, the googly eyes, and the perfect sentiment.

Hilde (Tindaloo)

Heidi's Choice:  Hilde's choice of die-cuts, background papers and colours is spot-on.  I love the little guy holding the baby dinosaur and, of cours, those large dinosaurs in the background.  A great nod to the Jurassic Movies.

Lynne (Ruby-Dooby-Doo)

Dawn's Choice:  Lynne's birthday card with the sweet dog is adorable.  Love the way she used the porthole die and made great use of the blue paper for a perfect masculine card.

JanR (Huh, So this is a blog...)

Tristan's Choice:  I just adore this little snowman tag and love that you can take him off the tag to become a bookmark.  Jan has created great texture on the hat and scarf with the fuzzy felt foam.

Jane (Onions and Paper)

Kath's Choice:  Jane's card is a great monochromatic masculine card.  I love the classic car stamp used.

Cat (Cat Luvs Paper)

Helen's Choice:  Cat has created a great humorous masculine card.  Her wonderful colouring has brought this fun image to life.  Guaranteed to bring a smile to your face!

Congratulations Diane, Hilde, Lynne, JanR, Jane and Cat!  Here is your badge to proudly display on your blog designating you as one of our Watercooler Rockers.

We would love to see you come back tomorrow, January 29th, for our next Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.  The Watercooler Artists will have lots of inspiration to spark your creativity.

WWC232 - The Watercooler Rock Star and Rockers

Drum roll, please!  It's Tuesday and time to announce our Watercooler Rock Star and Watercooler Rockers for our awesome "Anything Goes" Challenge.  But first, we'd like to thank all those who played along with us.  Beautiful entries that make our choices so much harder, but we think you are all stars.  Well done!

Marsha's choice for our Watercooler Rock Star is Julia's wonderful birthday card.  Following the winner are the Watercooler Artists' choices for the Watercooler Rockers.

Julia Aston (#40)

Marsha's Rock Star:  My choice is #40.  Julia has created a wonderful card.  I love the way the brewed tea has stained the watercolour paper.  A vintage look with just a bit of colour.

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

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

Rose (#11)

Kath's Rocker:  Rose's card, "Believe", is bold and beautiful!  The colouring is absolutely wonderful!  A fun card all around.

Claire (#70)

Heidi's Rocker:  Claire has created a striking Anniversary card.  I love the white die-cut stringed heart against the white base.  By inlaying the heart with the wonderful coloured sections cut from the Yupo paper, she has made an already great card even more elegant and unforgettable.

Darnell (#66)

Karen's Rocker:  Darnell has created a most striking card.  Her Brushos background splashed with bleach resulted in a lovely creation.  A very special birthday card.

Steffi (#65)

Dawn's Rocker:  Steffi has made a beautiful CAS card with the gorgeous pastel ornaments.  It is a fabulous design.

Mac Mable #36 

Tristan's Rocker:  Mac has created a stunning card with papertowel - who would have thought to use something that would usually have been destroyed and add gold embossing to the edges?  Simply gorgeous.

Kristie (#30)

Michelle's Rocker:  Kristie has made a gorgeous rainbow of waves for her thank you card.  The white heat embossed sentiment just pops off the card!  So bright and cheery!

Milla (#67)

Helen's Rocker:  Milla has created a beautifully coloured CAS watercoloured card featuring a really fun little boy image!

Congratulations Rose, Claire, Darnell, Steffie, Mac, Kristie, and Milla!  Here is your badge to proudly display on your blog designating you as one of our Watercooler Rockers.

That's our lineup for this week's Watercooler Rock Star and Watercooler Rockers.  Be sure to come back tomorrow, August 7th, for our next Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.  You won't want to miss all the wonderful creations by our Watercooler Artists.
