NADIA HERBST-MCCONNELL!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!  Your scrappycrow was selected as this month’s challenge winner!

This awesome looking fella is named “Supa Scare” – the bird-flinging blingy scarecrow designed by Nadia Herbst-McConnell.  Nadia says, “He is made completely from found items at our house (it kinda shows).  His glittery head and bird are from leftover items from the church bazaar stuff I donated.  His base is a CD holder, wrapped in metal tape (leftover from attaching the dryer hose) and duct tape (that my husband borrowed from a neighbor last night for me).  The black and glitter papers on him are from my drawer of little scrap papers, the giant pipe cleaners are ones I raided from my DD’s craft stuff (she is 6 so it required trading and begging).  The rubber bands are from the asparagus that I cooked last night.  (How can a house not have any rubber bands except what shows up from the produce department??!!)  The raffia has to be from 1992, leftover a project I did then for school.  That is the only time I remember using it and I had quite a time remembering where I put it.  The felt is left over stock from when I thought that I needed every color made to create my little 2″ acorn fairies.  (Note:  2″ fairies do not require a case of felt to get completed).  The dowel rod inside him is leftover from DD’s birthday party in 2007 when the girls made magic wands.”

BUT WAIT….there’s more!  Kassi Hulet is also receiving  a prize for taking the time to enter such an adorable scrappycrow!  She will be receiving this month’s Mystery Prize Candy! 

I still have my own scarecrow to finish and post – I’m trying, really!   Be on the lookout for November’s Challenging Challenge Dirty Details I will be posting today!
Happy Crafting!
