My Inability to Follow Directions

So this is what was posted for the coming week's  The Three Muses challenge:

 let's use a small black and white photo WITHIN a colorful art page. 

I however, did two big photos on a scrapbook,

non-artsy pastel page.

But it is what it is.

And I don't care.

And yes, that IS me.

Brights

I finally made something that is not digital!  

It's a journal page for

the August challenge at

More Mixed Media Challenge

Thanks for looking!

Seaside Fun!

Have you seen the gorjuss new digital papers

and collage sheets at 

the Gecko Galz Etsy shop?

There are so many fun ones to choose from!

I had a blast making these samples for this month's theme over at

Gecko Galz Scrapbooking

The theme is

BY THE SHORE

products used:

Timeless Paper pak

Flower Power Paper Pak

brushes and masks by Amanda Sok

Sea Side Icons from the 

Sea Side Splendor Digital Kit 

Cuties by the Shore Collage Sheet

The process I use for these is all the same.

And as you see, I used a lot of the same products.

Gecko Galz products are so versatile and the

collage sheets have so many images to choose from!

I choose two papers, one for the background

and one, which, with a mask of my choice, I layer over top

of the first paper.

I crop the collage sheet image I want, and again, use a mask, 

and again, put it over top of the last item.

I add some sea side icons, placing them over or under the main image,

wherever I like.

I erase any parts I don't want.

Sometimes I add a border overlay or not,

depending on my mood. lol

And maybe some words and/or brushes.

Use your creativity to the max!!

I went with a vintage theme this month, but

there are retro, mermaid, swimming pool and

all sorts of digital stamps, papers and collage sheets 

that are perfect for this theme!

I probably don't have to remind you, but

our Customer challenge is running

until the end of the month

and that gives you lots of time

so make something wonderful!

I'll see you

(and your terrific art) there soon!
