Ranger's Easter Egg Designer's Challenge! Day 2

 
This week, we are presenting the results from Ranger's Easter themed Designer's Challenge: we gave craft eggs to some of our favorite designers and crafty employees, and asked them to decorate the eggs for Easter using Ranger products.

Jenni Bowlin:

• Inkssentials Mini Misters
• Inkssentials Glossy Accents
• Jenni Bowlin for Ranger Reinker - Stick Candy, Cough Syrup, Lemon Drops
• Jenni Bowlin for Ranger Acrylic Paint Dabber - Malted Milk
• Jenni Bowlin for Ranger Dye Ink Pad - Stick Candy

Jenni painted wooden eggs with her Malted Milk Acrylic Paint Dabber, and accented them with colorful butterflies.  The butterflies were made by mixing various reinkers with water in the Mini Mister and giving them a spritz.

Terry Horvath:

• Inkssentials Manila Cardstock
• Tim Holtz idea-ology Tissue Tape
• Inkssentials Glue n' Seal - Matte
• Distress Stain - Antique Linen
• Distress Stickles - Picket Fence

Terry started out with a styrofoam egg and paper mached it with Glue n' Seal and Tissue Tape.  She then gave it a wash of Antique Linen Distress Stain and used Picket Fence Distress Stickles to add some sugary sparkle to her flowers.

Wendy Vecchi started out with a paper mache egg and used the following to make her magnificent creation:

• Inkssentials Non-Stick Craft Sheet
• Inkssentials Heat it Craft Tool
• Inkssentials Blending Tool with Foam and Felt
• Inkssentials Wonder Tape
• Inkssentials Glossy Accents
• Adirondack Pigment Ink Pad - Snow Cap
• Archival Inks
• Perfect Pearls Mists
• Adirondack Snow Cap Mixative
• Adirondack Alcohol Ink
• Distress Stains
• Distress Stickles
• Distress Inks
• Distress Markers
• Inkssentials Surfaces Specialty Stamping Paper

If you are still scrambling, trying to come up with some ideas for Easter décor of your own, never fear!  We have even more egg-citing creations to share tomorrow!

New Year's Organization

 
Happy New Year, everyone!!  So let's see a show of hands: how many of you have made New Year's Resolutions to finally organize your craft space?

Wow, that's a lot of you!

Never fear, Ranger is here to help.  We have a plethora of organizational products and tools that will help you to sort your crafting stash.

For example, we have the Inkssentials Craft Spinner (which can be stacked up to three tiers high) for keeping your Ink Blending Tools, Adirondack Acrylic Paint Dabbers, Jenni Bowlin for Ranger Paint Dabbers, Adirondack Alcohol Inks, Stickles, re-inkers and more within easy reach:

We also have free, printable labels available for download from our website, so you can label the sides of your ink pads for easy retrieval:

We even have blank color charts that you can fill in with the colors of inks, paints, Stickles and more that are currently in your collection:

Our fans are pretty clever and innovative when it comes to organizing and storing their favorite Ranger products, too!  Check out some of these great ideas that we found online:

Christie Hund affixed a metal strip under her crafting cabinets and attached all of her Stickles bottles using magnets. Gravity keeps the Stickles ready to use at any time!

Ron Wilhelm has a different solution for upside-down Stickles storage: PVC couplings glued together in a honeycomb-like arrangement!

Ron uses PVC pipes to hold Adirondack Acrylic Paint Dabbers, too!

So let us know, Ranger fans: in what clever ways do you store and organize your favorite Ranger goodies?  Let us know and on January 6th we will select a winner, who will receive:

...a Tim Holtz idea-ology Trinket Case AND...

...a Tim Holtz idea-ology Cargo Case!

Post pictures of your crafty solutions on our Facebook wall, too!  We'd love to see them, and you just might inspire a fellow Ranger fan to get organized in 2012.
