December Honorable Mentions

December 18, 2008      Nichole Heady      17 Comments

As many of you may or may not know, we have been having several technical issues with the Papertrey gallery. There have been a lot of bugs in the system lately affecting the
gallery that we have not yet been able to identify. I myself had a lot of difficulty getting in long enough to make any headway on judging the December submissions for our Guest Star Stamper contest. Please know that we are actively trying to pinpoint a
solution and we hope to have everything running smoothly again as soon
as possible.

I have finally been able to peruse the entire December gallery and decided upon the winners of our monthly contest!  I have highlighted their projects below along with a few other favorites which have been deemed honorable mention status.  I hope you enjoy perusing all of the amazing projects and gain a little inspiration for your own stamping today!

Be sure to click on the artist’s name to be linked back to the gallery and the full-version of their project!  Happy browsing!

Ashley Newell
made this fantastic frame by using the border element from Men of
Life
.  I loved the unconventional layout of her project along with the
color scheme.  I can totally see myself giving something like this to
my own husband!

…………………………………………………………………………………………..
Jen_caputo
Jen Caputo used both the Men of Life stamp set & patterned papers to create this fantastic & clever gift card holder.  The little touch of raffia that she added is such a nice accent for a masculine card.
…………………………………………………………………………………………..
Maile_belles
Maile Belles used Men of Life & Background Basics: Stars when creating this simply stamped project.  I loved the way she integrated the sentiment onto a flag shaped strip of cardstock as her accent.  I think that ties into the theme really nicely!
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Alicia_weiman
Alicia Weiman got out our popular previously released set, Pond Life, to create her take on a masculine card.  I loved the embossed lines she added to accent her project along with the sponging techniques she used to help ground the cattail images.

…………………………………………………..

Jennifer Kirk created this adorable packaging for some nuggets using Teacher’s Apple, especially for teacher.  I really liked the crisp clean look of the ensemble overall, especially the small details of the flowers added to the apples with brads.
………………………………………………………………………………………….
Cindy_holshouser
Cindy Holshouser made this amazing note card set that is a perfect gift idea for your favorite teacher.  The color scheme of this project is so out-of-the-box and eye catching, it would be sure to turn heads.  The whole project is just so bright and cheerful, it would brighten anyone’s day!
………………………………………………………………………………………….
Jtkshaw
jtkshaw came up with a great design for a desk calendar perfect for teacher’s desk.  She used patterns from Holiday Vintage Prints to set the tone for her color scheme.  What a fun & inexpensive project that will be sure to get a lot of use!
………………………………………………………………………………………….
Heidi
Heidi (hastostamp) stamped on a canvas apron to create a “Teacher tool belt”.  I love this concept and can see a hundred different possibilities for such a great gift!
………………………………………………………………………………………….
Terri
Terri Moore’s daughter has an ice skating teacher and she found the perfect gift idea within Lauren’s FREE Stocking Stuffer template.  By adding some well-placed eyelets and some silver cording toe serve as a lave, she was able to create a project that really matches her desired theme!

Amy

…………………………………………………..

Amykae
used Silent Night along with Lauren’s For Keep{sake} template to make
some beautiful chocolate gift boxes.  Her color scheme of navy &
yellow paired with the gold accents really communicates an air of
elegance.

……………………………………………………………………………………………….

Emilia
Emilia created this bright and cheerful card using a mixture of Flower Garden and Boxes, Bags & Tags sets.  I loved her choice of color scheme along with the beautiful background pattern she created.
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
Kssunflower_mom
Kssunflower Mom used Garden of Life to make this gorgeous gift ensemble.  I just loved the simplicity of it, the colors and especially the use of Borders & Corners Circle for the background.  Fabulous!
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
Maile_belles_2
Maile Belles paired the main leaf image from Spiral Bouquet along with a sentiment from Everyday Blessings to make this quick & simple card.  As soon as I saw it, I imagined the dozen other color combos you could do with the same layout to create a several projects for your card stash!
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
Justine_fredrick
Justine Frederick made a beautiful collection of holiday tags, all enclosed in a special little box.  Her color schemes are really unique and worth taking a second look at!
…………………………………………………………………………………………..

I hope you have enjoyed the inspiration that these projects offer as much as I have!  The winners will be officially displayed in our gallery a bit later on today!  Want to give a go at winning next month’s contest yourself?  You can read all about the details HERE!
