What a fantastic turnout for our Summer Special Challenge! I can tell already, it's going to be super difficult for the design team to select our Top Five. Thanks so much to each and every one of you who entered our Summer challenge and to those of you who stopped by to visit, we truly appreciate it.

Our September challenge is, as usual...
Anything Goes Steampunk/Industrial
We welcome all types of projects (except digitally created) and encourage everyone, from beginner to experienced to join us every month and share your creations. Show us your tags, cards, canvas, art journal, altered objects...whatever you can imagine that fits our theme of steampunk/industrial. We truly are in awe of the imagination and creativity of you, our players, and look forward each challenge to see where your creative muse took you!
Many thanks to our wonderful and generous sponsors,

Look how it slides up to reveal a hidden compartment filled with treasures.
has turned her hand to a bit of sewing and fabric incorporated into her mixed media masterpiece!
up cycled some packaging materials and combined paints and prepared die cuts from her "holiday tool box" to create a mixed media panel (with improvised stand) that she titled
"The Inventor"
made a canvas board titled "The Dog on the Wall" using paint, stencil, die cut and image...
Looks like a lot of math going on here!
shares another textural masterpiece titled
"Another Path"
Look carefully and you can see the bicycle hanging from chains!

"Rust Never Sleeps"
My muse works in mysterious ways...I was inspired to create my ATC's by a broken down washing machine with rusty pipes, an old truck with a rusted frame, and a song! I'm sharing the story behind that on my blog.
