NSC19 Time Over at Soul Scrappers

It's time for another negative space sketch challenge over at Soul Scrappers.  It's a simple sketch that leaves room for lots of indiviual style. 

For my sample page I put hexagon stamps under the photos to act as the mat.  I then blended the lines using the Paperworn Action by Studio Tangie at Scrapbookgraphics.com to give it a more natural stamped look.  I must admit that I don't think I have one digi page that doesn't use that action in some way.  It's my very favorite :-).

Details on the challenge can be found here. Digi credits are Captivated Visions-You're Worth It, Studio Tangie Baxter-You Are Brilliant, Anna Aspnes-Artplay Pallette Ablaze.
 
And while you are visiting Soul Scrappers don't forget to take part in our birthday ccelebrations,  Soul Scrappers is turning 3!
 
Until next time . . . Happy Craftin'!

Destiny's Page

Here's a page I did for an art journaling challenge at OSD.  We had to use 3 provided elements ( one orange/white butterfly, ripped seed packet, and background text; a color from a specific color scheme; and a journal prompt re: destiny.

The seed packet originally had a blue flower, but I wanted to use yellow/green/orange so I had no room for blue on my pallete.  No problem for a digi-gal, ctrl-U to the rescue.  I recolored the flower green :-)

Challenges are a great way to get your mojo going.  Don't forget to stop over at Soul Scrappers and check out all the great challenges we have going on. 

Until next time... Happy Craftin'!
