Die-Namites March Sketch Challenge

2

Have you submitted your March Sketch Challenge entry? What are you waiting for? The month is half way over, don't let time get away.

Here is this month’s sketch.....

 

 

The Dare for March was use Purple!

 

The sketch below can be interpreted as a card, layout or altered piece! You need to use at least one Die~Namites Die in your creation.

 

Here is my take on the sketch....

I used the new March release Fragile Flowers - DN-1165 for my card's focal point.

The flowers were colored with Tim Holtz' distress markers in Mustard Seed, Concord Grape, and Shabby Shutters.  Then for added texture I polished the flowers with clear glitter nail polish.  

Please visit the challenge page for contest rules and submission details.

A random winner will be chosen from eligible participants for a $25 Gift Certificate to Die~Namites Dies.

 

I can't wait to see your take on the challenge.

Good luck!

Radiant Orchid Mixed Media Card

2

  

 

 

  

Pantone has announced that its 2014 color of the year is Radiant Orchid.  Well I have to admit, purple is not usually my first choice, but I do think the color makes a powerful statement when used properly.  So I thought I would use this opportunity to challenge myself.

 

When I feel like I'm in a rut, I love to use things that I don't normal use - like radiant purple. It helps to stimulate my creativity and gives me a fresh perspective. 

 

I created this dragonfly card using some old Prima product and a few mixed media techniques.   Something old with something new is always my plan for eliminating clutter!  Back at Christmas time I shared with you my new love for glitter nail polish on embellishments.  Isn't it gorgeous on these flower centers? 

 

Tomorrow I will share with you a video tutorial on how I created the dragonfly with the Die-Namites flowering tree die. 

If you decide to create with these colors, please share your projects with me on Facebook.  I would love to see what you create!

Thanks for stopping in today!

Tonya
