We have decided that in order to keep things FRESH, we want to change things up a little, for the better!
Our Guest Designer Challenge, which has been extremely popular, is going to be tucked up on a shelf for a while and we are going to introduce our new program, Featured Friends!
The FEATURED FRIEND details are below:
1. We will scout the internet via popular stamping forums and
galleries, our color challenge group over at PCP, and blog
visits/comments here and on CDS design team blogs.
2. We will select ONE person to FEATURE each month on the 10th of every month. NO challenge entries, NO contests!
3. We look for creative individuals who are currently creating and posting with Clear Dollar Stamps images, and who are FRESH and FUN people!
4. The FEATURED FRIEND will receive ONE free stamp set of his/her
choice from that months releases, as a gift! No samples required, but
of course, if you are selected to be a CDS Featured Friend, we know
that you will probably WANT to use your new stamps and show them off
eventually!
5. The FEATURED FRIEND will get a full blog post dedicated to featuring
THEM, right here at Clearly iStamp. We will select some projects from
his/her online gallery or blog and display them here along with making
sure to link their blogs, galleries, and telling everyone HOW we found
them, as well as telling everyone a little bit ABOUT them.
6. The Featured Friend will be notified via email approximately 2 weeks prior to the 10th to be informed that THEY are our selected Featured Friend, and will be asked to answer a few questions about themselves and their stamping life.
So just keep on creating with CDStamps and posting on your blog and
public galleries, and we WILL find you! Who knows.... YOU could be the
next CDS FEATURED FRIEND right here!
THE CDS FEATURED FRIEND FOR SEPTEMBER 2009 is
TERRICA TURNER!!
We found Terrica on SCS. She started making a Charlie the horse book and posting all the pages for that in her SCS gallery, as well as creating many more fabulous works of art using CDS stamps.
We asked Terrica a few stamping questions so that we all could get to know her better. Here is a little about Terrica:
1. How and when did you discover stamping?
I went to a SU workshop and was hooked in 1999. My husband was
diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor and I used stamping as a
therapy to deal with everything.
2. How would you describe your stamping style?
I like to make each creation for
the individual person and put their personality in it.
3. When did you discover Clear Dollar Stamps?
I only
discovered CDS less than a year ago but the art was so great and the
quality too that coupled with the low cost, I became a dedicated
customer right away.
4. What do you like best about Clear Dollar Stamps?
It is hard to pick just one thing but I guess
it is the samples of the cards that the great design team puts out,
that reels me in and I end up with a huge wish list!
5. Do you have any other hobbies other than stamping?
I also like to
scrapbook and cross-stitch. I spend a lot of money and time reading and
listening to audio books as well.
Here are some of Terrica's work using Clear Dollar Stamps below, and click HERE to see Terrica's SCS gallery.
One of the many adorable Charlie pages in her Charlie book. This is the Charlie gardens page.
Isn't
this spaceship just too cute for words? She used the Lost in Space stamp set. I love the hanging stars across
the top and she did a fabulous job on the coloring and sewing.
Oh
I just squealed at how darling this ballerina card is! Look at the
precious sewing and that cute designer paper! She used the My Little
Ballerina stamp set.
What
a pretty fall looking card she made using the Sunflower Songs! This
was her entry for the September Guest Designer Challenge, and she did
an awesome job at the challenge.
And a final note from Terrica:
I am so excited that you want to
feature me!! Thanks for being part of such a great company!! Terrica
Hope your day is filled with blessings and stamping galore!
