Hello Everyone! Happy October! In addition to a new Art with Heart Challenge, this month we have some new additions to the Eileen Hull Inspiration Team. I’m very excited to have the Team ATB gals sharing their creativity as part of the Inspiration Team as well as their knock your socks off Artist Trading Block designs on our sister site The Artists on the Block! I’ll be introducing each of our new team members throughout the month as they debut their Inspiration Team projects. In the meantime you can check out more of Team ATB’s amazing creations HERE.
Our theme for the October Art with Heart Challenge is “Tricks and Treats”. You can take the theme literally and show us your best Halloween projects or show your favorite crafty “Trick” and “Treat” us to some creative inspiration. Whatever you create I know we’ll be in for a “treat”!
Pam Bray has a bewitching Halloween Candy Box Artist Trading Block to share for her first Inspiration Team Project! Pam has been our resident Graphic 45 queen and her use of Steampunk Spells papers on this project is sure to leave you spellbound.
Stop by Pam’s Blog for more fabulous details on this Halloween themed ATB and welcome Pam to the Inspiration Team!
Lisa Hoel will drive you batty with inspiration as she shares mixed-media tricks and treats like this fantastic Halloween Candy drawer! I must say I am smitten by that bat drawer pull…how about you?
You’ll find details on this project and more on Lisa’s Blog. Fly on over and say hello and welcome Lisa to the Inspiration Team.
Next we have Tracy Evans with an over the top AMAZING Halloween Mini-Album! No your eye’s aren’t playing “tricks” on you, she really did put ALL those details into each and every page!
Stop by Tracy’s Blog for a look inside this amazing mini-album and prepare yourself for some absolutely stunning creative ‘treats’.
Shelly Hickox is always an innovator, and her latest Inspiration Team project is no exception. Shelly also created a Halloween Mini-Album but in a totally new way! That clever lass will flip your creativity upside down and show you how to use the mini-album die to create an oh-so-cool accordion album!
Shelly’s Blog has all the details you need on how to create this terrific Halloween Accordion Album!
In addition to loads of inspirational tricks and treats from the Inspiration Team we also have a special “treat” for the winning entry to our challenge this month. Since we are welcoming Team ATB members to the Inspiration Team I thought it would be fitting to offer one of my Artist Trading Block Sizzix Scoreboards dies as a prize. All you have to do is link up your “Tricks and Treats” project below and provide a link back to this post for a chance to win.
We’ll be back with more creative Inspiration Team projects next Tuesday!
