Featured Creation by Joanne

It's getting cold as we head straight on to the heart of the holiday season.  I'm sure everyone is busy with shopping, decorating, and social gatherings (performances at school, office party, church party, and oh so many more).  I just wanted to bring you another crafter feature today after taking a bit of a break.  I'm still working on the renovation of the digi store, while trying to get the house ready for the holidays like everybody else, so I missed doing these spotlight features since November.

I've been wanting to showcase Joanne Godden Bell's lovely coloring project with the Snow Queen - Blooms of Ice - digi.  Check it out!

Isn't she lovely?  Very icy, mesmerizing with the frozen gaze, and what a lovely setup for the photo!

Information on which colors she used can be found on her blog post right here.

This Snow Queen is the latest to join the Aurora Wings' digital stamps collection, but many of you know that I have multiple images inspired by the story of the Snow Queen (the original Hans Christian Andersen version).

Featured Creation by Julie

Hello everyone, and thank you for stopping by for our Crafter Feature post at AWSB!  Today, I have a gorgeous card by Julie Price to spotlight for you.  It's so soothing to the eyes...  I think you'll agree.

Isn't this stunning?  Love her creation in pretty shades of pink and lavender.  Julie's coloring of the "Orchid Fairy" image is so soft and beautiful, I'd say it's almost 'fragrant' as well!  This lovely card is full of feminine beauty and elegance, it really is enchanting.  You can read more about her project and feast your eyes on more pics in her blog post right here.

The digi she used, the "Orchid Fairy", is available as a 6 x 8 inch/ 15.2 x 20.3 cm, JPG digi (300 dpi, 1800 x 2400 pixels) at AW Etsy here.  Also available at the AW web shop right here.

As a featured crafter today, Julie receives a custom blog badge and a digi of her choice.  You may be the next crafter who gets featured right here at our Showcase Blog!  You can send in your project pics at Stamps by AuroraWings FB group photo album at any time throughout the year.  I am always looking for a piece to feature, so please add your proud creations to our album for a chance to be showcased.  And please don't get disappointed if your piece is not showcased right away.  I hope to feature many crafters, different styles, and skill levels on our Tuesday posts in the upcoming weeks and months.

We've kicked off a new challenge at Aurora Wings Challenge Blog!  This time, the theme is everyone's favorite, ANYTHING GOES!  This is as 'open' as themes get, and a great chance to get two (or more) birds with one stone, if you know what I mean. *wink*  So what are you waiting for? 

And over at our FB group, we have our monthly contest underway in the theme of "Pink Ribbon" in honor of the Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  Hope you can join over there, too.

Till next time, happy coloring & crafting~!!
