Check out Stephanie Severin's recent tutorial on creating coffee filter flowers that you can see in her submission above.
You can also dye your filters with inks or mists to create a unique background. Stamp on them, spray onto them or just embellish them! Be as creative as you can!
When the challenge closes on February 6, 2011, we will pick 10 Ginger Gems - fabulous creations that we feel really exemplify that challenge's objective. The Ginger Gems will appear in our wrap-up post and in a slide show in the blog bar for an entire week and their creators will have the honor of displaying our Ginger Gems blog badge.
For your chance to be eligible as a Ginger Gem or as a Home Page Artist, just follow the simple guidelines below:
1) Make a paper crafting or mixed media creation using coffee filters as a supply in your creation;
2) Post your creation to your blog or online gallery with a mention and link to this post; and
3) Come back to this post and leave a comment including a DIRECT link to your creation or use the linky application below. Remember to make it a link to the specific post or picture and not just a general link to your blog or gallery. We need to be able to find your art!
For more information on our challenges and directions on linking, please check out our FAQ page.
One random winner and seven Ginger Gems will be announced from the qualifying submissions on February 8, 2011. You have until February 6, 2011 to enter!
The Gingers have been grinding out some amazing inspiration to get you going on this challenge!

ReplyDeleteThis is a great challenge--you girls really made that little gray cells work overtime on this one--hope you like the outcome.
ReplyDeleteLove all the samples . . . there may be a little bias in there, though, since I probably like coffee a little too much . . .
ReplyDeleteANYWAY, I posted another layout from the "coffee, tea, chocolate drinks" book, and this layout uses (what else, right?) a coffee filter.
:)
Great inspiration andideas as always from the DT glad I managed to join in.
