Aurora Wings
Prize: $20 Gift Certificate
Aurora Wings is owned by Mitzi Sato-Wiuff. She is originally from Japan, Mitzi is an amazing illustrator based in Colorado. Her images are so diverse and fun! We love how she explains her name on Etsy.. here is what she says: "A fantasy artist with a funny-looking last name. The first part of my last name is Japanese while the second part is Danish with the W pronounced as a V and the two 'f's being silent. *confusing* It sounds just like 'view', actually." "The digital section is the fastest gorwing section in my Etsy shop. Having been denied coloring books I craved as a child (My mother cited some "experts" saying that coloring books hindered a child's creativity with pre-made lines...), I totally understand the joy and fun of coloring (It's my favorite phase of illustration work, too!), and it's a delight for me to be able to share my line work with colorists & crafters out there through my digi's."

KennyK Designs
Prize: 3 Images
"The creator, the artist, the man: KennyK wielded a mean crayon during his formative years in the Bronx, developing his signature funky-but-slick, urban-influenced style - and over the years has completed countless assignments for many of the biggest ad agencies and corporate clients in the business. His work runs the gamut from big-budget advertising campaigns and promotions, editorial illustrations, toy/game and product packaging, to sexy pinup babes, anime and retro character designs, comic books, computer games, t-shirts and sticker designs and Flash animation - all that fun stuff." - Elena

Prize: 5 Images
Do you have a sense of humor? Are you looking for a cute stamp? Then, we are the company for you! QKR Stampede is the somewhat cute somewhat quirky rubber and digital stamp company. We showcase the artwork of Ken Herrod, who had a unique, somewhat quirky style with lots of humor and character. You are sure to get a chuckle out of our stamps! We have been offering our unique stamps and supplies to the craft industry for over 15 years. At QKR Stampede our images are available as un-mounted, natural red rubber stamps OR as digital stamps! If QKR Stampede Stamps aren't exactly what you are looking for, don’t miss out on the sister companies: Eureka Stamps, Biblical Impressions Rubber Stamps, or the newest addition; Alluring Impressions.



I chose to use a Kenny K image to make my card for the midway challenge.  This is Riot Rachel:

                                    I found this quote on the internet and thought it fit the card perfectly.
