WCC21 -- Susan's Colour Challenge

Welcome to our new challenge.  This one is brought to you by Susan Horr, one of our talented Watercooler Artists.  Susan has put together a colour challenge for us.  These are all Stampin' Up! colours therefore if you are using another brand, please try to use colours as close as possible to the ones posted.


To start off Challenge WCC21, here is Susan's card, using her wonderful colours.   Don't those stripes look great?  Susan's clean and simple style really makes an impact, doesn't it?  Just like Susan, you can use white (or very vanilla) in addition to the colours in the challenge.  You can find out all the details regarding Susan's card by clicking on her name, just below her card.  This also applies to the cards presented by the remaining Watercooler Artists.











And now it's your turn.  You can join us by linking up your creation with the InLinkz at the bottom of this challenge.

Remember:
          1.  This must be a new project---no back-linking to a previous post.
          2.  You must link your project back to our challenge (details at top of page).
          3.  You must link directly to your post, not simply your general blog.
          4.  Please link to no more than 4 challenges, including ours.
          5.  Have fun!

Please use the link-up below to share your project.  This Linky will close on Friday, April 17th at 7:30 a.m. Mountain Daylight Savings Time.

WCC20 -- Buffy's Sketch Challenge

Welcome to our new challenge.  This one is brought to you by Buffy Cooper, one of our talented Watercooler Artists.  Buffy provided us with a sketch for this challenge.


To start off Challenge WCC20, here is Buffy's interpretation of her sketch.  You can see that she has traded out the large blossom shape for a rectangle and the Washi Tape for multiple strands of Thick Baker's Twine.  Feel free to take Buffy's lead and use your own choice of shape(s).  As long as the sketch is still recognizable, we welcome your interpretations.  You can find all the details about Buffy's card by clicking on her name, just below her card.  This also applies to the cards presented by the remaining Watercooler Artists.








And now it's your turn.  You can join us by linking up your creation with the InLinkz at the bottom of this challenge.

WCC19 -- No winner this week

We stated earlier that we would have a winner if we received 3 or more link-ups to our challenge.  Unfortunately that didn't happen this time but we had two wonderfully creative participants whose cards the whole team of Watercooler Artists enjoyed.  Thanks so much, Sheri and Deborah.  We hope you'll join us for the next Watercooler Challenge which will begin on Sunday, March 22nd.

We invite you to tell your friends about us so that the minimum of three will be met next time.  In our opinion, however, you are both winners for this week.  Thanks for playing.

WCC18 --- Jackie's Sketch Challenge

 Welcome to our new challenge.  This one is brought to you by one of our very talented Watercooler Artists, Jackie Susnik.  Jackie designed this sketch using her Stampin' Up!My Digital Studio programme.  Not only can the programme be used for Photobook and project design, it can easily help a person design special projects such as this sketch.


To start of this week's challenge, here is Jackie's interpretation of her sketch.  You'll notice that she has swapped out the circle in the sketch for a diamond shape.  Feel free to use whatever shape you please in place of the circle.  As long as the sketch is still recognizable, we welcome your own interpretations.  You can find details about Jackie's card by clicking on her name below the card just as you can for any of the cards presented by the remaining Watercooler Artists.











And now it's your turn.  You can join us by linking up with the InLinkz at the bottom of this challenge.
