When Hollie learned she had won, she said, “Oh wow - how exciting!! I haven’t won anything since the 8th grade! I’ve loved all the new pendant dies and seeing what the designers have made with them. I’ll have lots of fun playing with the Renaissance Hearts Pendants and Borderabilities. Love my Wizard and my Nestabilities and I’m sure these will be my new favorites. Thank you so much!!”

How many years of crafting?
As long as I can remember, I have always been interest in art.  My dad was a very talented artist, and I would spend hours watching him draw.  I always had paper and pencil in hand and tried to draw the things he did.

Your favorite Spellbindersâ„¢ technique?
My favorite technique would have to be coloring with either PrismaColor Pencils or Copic Markers. Both are great for achieving a realistic look and perfect for shading.

Your favorite Spellbindersâ„¢ die?
As for my favorite die, that’s difficult because I really enjoy them all, but my favorite would be the Nestabilities®. They are perfect for card making and stamping.

One thing you get inspiration for and why?
Magazines: I collect all of them. Since I live in a small town, they help me stay up to date with what’s going on in the industry.

Here are some of Linda’s beautiful work!
