First off, let me say I am thrilled to be able to be a part of the SoArtful tradition! I have been a side-line lurker in the past, but I decided to take the plunge and keep the challenges going! I am so grateful to Jeanette for her instructions and kind welcome!
I have admired the different participant's creations and am in awe of the talent out there! I got into making ATC's last year and enjoy fiddling around with different elements, so I can't wait to play along and learn some new techniques and try new things! I adore vintage themes as well as some of the darker/spookier elements too.
Nothing has really changed here at SoArtful other than (at least until the new year) it will be a two-week challenge, but with two inspiration pieces to choose from. That way if you are pressed for time, you will have two weeks to create something, but if have more time to create, you can use both. So you have the freedom to do one or both! Or make more than one project with one prompt! No rules other than to have fun, and any sort of creation is welcome: digital, mixed media, clay, painting, fabric, fiber, cards, ATC's, chunkies, inchies , twinchies, 4x4's, art journal pages, and whatever else you can think of! Take the inspiration piece literally or as a springboard for another idea. Just be sure to mention us in your post and link to the challenge. If you cannot get the linky frog to cooperate, please feel free to leave your entry in a comment as always!
So, to get on with it now:
As the Crow Flies
The first inspiration piece is from The Graphics Fairy and you can find the original post right here. I love this crow image, and my mind immediately goes to that saying "As the Crow Flies".
Second inspiration piece is just gorgeous with the shades of Autumn and vintagey elements and is from InspyreTash and you can find it here...
Harvest Garden
Please be kind and stop by with a thank you comment at the links above if you use these gorgeous images!
I cannot wait to see what you come up with! You have until 11:30 pm CST October 22 to link your project up. I will be having a mid-challenge reminder as well and hopefully spotlight some of your creations! Thanks so much for stopping by!
