My Artistic Adventure January Challenge

Our First Challenge for 2015 is
Anything Goes!!

Create any NEW tangible item, Card, tag, ATC, Layout, altered art piece, Banner, pretty much anything you can come up with that is tangible using some of my digital images (and or others).

(Sorry no digital entrees)
Please remember you can use other images to play along & win the "Top three badge" but in order to win the Random Draw (a free collage sheet) and Designer's Choice (chance to Guest Design and receive free images) you must use one of my images.

So come on over and join in the fun by clicking on the My Artistic Adventure badge ( the one that says I am a Design Team Member) on the left hand side of my blog and then click on the tab on top that says Current Challenge!

Here is my sample:

Directions:

- Card base for A2 card is light blue card stock ( 4 1/4 x 5 1/2)

- Card front is white card stock which I use Darice embossing folder of snowflakes

that I lightly went over with light blue ink to highlight the design

- I used silver stickles for the middle of the snowflakes

- Image is from Heather's Snowman collage sheet with frosted lace stickles on the tree

- Sentiment I printed out on the computer and edged in silver stickles

- Snowman and sentiment were popped dotted on the card

- Everything was inked with light blue ink

Welcome to my "Strawberry Patch"

Hi,

My name is Barbara Bird.

As you can see by my title, I kinda like strawberries. I am also a Winnie the Pooh lover. I love to scrapbook and make cards, I have also started to do some albums and altered items. I am a Close To My Heart consultant ( this is my fourth year ) we do a get together once a month. I love their stuff and was so impressed that this year they lowered alot of their prices because of the economy.

I love this artistic outlet and have met so many great ladies that have become great friends.......don't know what I would do without them. Glad you came and hope to make alot more scrapping friends.

I am so excited about being on the Gecko Galz Design Team .... I love all the vintage images that we get to work with. Go over and check them out at www.geckogalz.com !
