We've just started the latest monthly challenge at World Wide Open Design Team Challenge and we have our usual theme of "Anything Goes." The winners from the last challenge have been chosen and you can find them on the World Wide blog.
We are sponsored by Julia Spiri. You can find her FB page here.
I used a beautiful image from the Venice Collection, Mask. Julia's designs seem to draw the purples and turquoises out of me but since that's my favorite color combo ever, I don't mind. :-D
Once again, I colored with my ProMarkers and used a white gel pen for the highlights. Both the image and the scalloped piece behind it were cut with dies from Sizzix. However, the dp (from the Juniper Berry stack by DCWV) was just a scrap I saved from the trash bin so it's not a complete circle.
The other two papers are from Graphic 45 and I put them onto the card front, wrapped the 2 layers of different ribbons (Really Reasonable Ribbon) around, added one of my signature, hand-sewn bows, and then layered on the two die cut pieces.
Finally, I printed and hand cut the sentiment, inked the edge, and added it. Not overblown with embellishments but not exactly CAS, either. :-D
Challenges:
As You Like It (Girly - because I have so many guys in my family that I end up doing masculine cards much more often and it's fun to do feminine creations instead.)

That's it for today but since I gave you a twofer, I think that's enough. If not, check back tomorrow to see what's new. :-D Happy Crafting. NanaConnie
