March 2018 SASPC Mid Month Reminder, Top5 & Prize Winners Post

Oh, well, that's quite a long title for a post, but that is what this post is about: we will be announcing our Top5 and prize winners from the February challenge AND also share the second round of inspirational projects created by Team B today...so let me just say a short "Servus, hi and thanks for stopping by!" and move directly to the challenge facts for our current March challenge, which is once more an "Anything Goes - Steampunk/Industrial" themed one and still open until the end of the month.

By playing along you get the chance to win one of the two fab prize bundles donated by our generous sponsors DecoArt media and boozybear steampunk chipboard pieces. And you might also find yourselves being picked as one of our Top5 (that are picked by the whole team after each challenge has ended)....all you have to do is play along and follow our few and simple challenge rules. 

With that said, let's directly move on to the makes of Team B. My wonderfully creative ladies have once more put a lot of love and labour into creating something for your inspiration, so, if you take a second to visit their blogs (by clicking on the names) and leave a short comment there, this is highly appreciated! 

Kerstin

created this amazing and beautiful canvas

for her "Rusty Fantasies" canvas series

using some brilliantly done faux rust techniques

(I love the rusty sea star I have spotted! And the pipes to the left are so cool! Oh, and do I also spot some corrugated card? Yummy!!!)

Maura

could not pass this month by without a tribute to her favourite holiday - St. Patrick's Day!

She tells you to "Look for a mischievous leprechaun and see if you can get him to give you his gold!"

(I spot more corrugated card! Yesssss!!!!)

Brigitte

created a steampunk mini album

using acrylic paints, stencils, dies and ephemera from her stash

The inside looks great too!

(I just love the vintage photograph on the left page and the background patterns!)

et moi 

-Claudia-

I have created a fun steampunk chunky from corrugated card (lol...here we go again) left overs, 

using different bits 'n bobs that I found during tidying up and reorganizing some of my 

"trash treasures" and "quickly put to the side" boxes.

Finding long forgotten stash (like the stamp I used on this project and the die cut gears) while tidying up can be a great source of inspiration! The only problem is that the tidying now will have to wait until you have created something with the re-found oldies! Ore maybe a bit longer...lol
