  6. I think the foam stamps created by Julie Fei-Fen Balzer were the most creative and unusual use of the die. I have the Tim Holtz' machine and I think it would use this die. Otherwise, please give it to someone else!

  12. All the artists made great projects. The most original material I think was Stefanie's (craftside.typepad.com) project with recycled felt sweater to make her Christmas tree. Thanks for the chance, Johanne L.

  13. I loved all of them, but I was most excited to see the recycled sweater christmas trees!!I recently made a similar tree using paper and I had to cut each strip and fringe it myself. Using the die would be so much faster and easier!!! I can't wait to try it!http://www.typepad.com/services/trackback/6a00e55007f59388340153928ee011970b

  15. I loved all the great ideas but my favorite was the recycled sweater christmas trees. I recently made a tree using paper but I had to cut each strip and fringe it myself.

  24. recycled sweaters were the most unique both in material and in the use of the die! ... but my favorite use {of all these really wonderful and creative ideas} was the smooch spritzed organza flowers. They were just so pretty!

  27. I would love to win this fabulous die. I think one of the most unique materials is the sweater. Although I also loved the flower made from coffee filters. I have used them before in art projects and they are a wonderful material. Especially nice to spritz color and stamp with bleach! Thanks for the opportunity to win.

  34. The most unique was the different shades of recycled sweaters -fringed to make the trees, and the cereal box cardboard to make the cones that acted as the base for those trees.

  35. Oooh, what fabulous projects. All of them were gorgeous. The one that stood out the most for me was Stefanie's felt sweater tree. How innovative! I have loads of wool sweaters that I no longer use and will definately give this a try.
