phew! what a challenge





On Saturday Stampers Kaz set the following challenge
For this week’s challenge, and I think it really is a challenge……I’d like you to make one piece that will cover all of the following challenges……..themes only, no size restrictions, you can still make whatever you want, card, atc, skinny page, whatever you like, but you must incorporate ALL themes below……..good luck!!

Gothic Arch Challenge……………….theme is………………”Friendship”

Mixed Media Monday………………..theme is………… “Buttons”

Fluffy Fatbottom’s Twisted Tuesday………..theme is…………..”Button Wisdom”

Wednesday Stamper………………..theme is………………..”Diamonds”

Theme Thursday…………………..theme is……………….”Chalk”

I can’t wait to see what you all come up with on this one!!!



gosh!!!! well I do love a challenge so I went for it!

I think I fulfilled them all

friendship, check! Buttons, check! Button wisdom, check! (made that one up myself!! lol),Diamonds, check! (in the background, plus little diamonds between the buttons) and chalk, check! (the back ground is done completetly with versamark and chalks. I used to do that technique all the time, but haven't for ages, maybe I'll play with it a bit more now)
I'm going to put this in for twisted tuesday as well, as I have purposefully done it postcard sized so it will fit their challenge. this is the first time I've done twisted tuesday. I've wanted to, but didn't think my creations were mad enough!

oh I suppose while I'm at it I'll add it to theme thursday too!
