If you are new to the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge, it's a fun way to get motivated to create (if you need motivation) and just for participating, your name will be put in a random drawing for a prize? How cool is that? Just create something for that month's challenge, photograph it, and link up your image on the MMMC homepage. It's so easy!
Our prize this month is a one month free membership to Brave Girl's Club! Brave Girls' Club "Brave Girl University" opens September 1 and Angela Magnuson (owner/creator of Unity Stamp Co and also a Brave Girl contributor) is giving away one month free to our random winner (value $24.95).
We are so excited to have Julie Balzer as our guest designer this month!! Be sure to check out her creation as well as the entire team on the homepage!
Here is the inspiration photo for the September challenge.
Isn't that a fun photo? So many things to jumpstart a creation. Large shapes (circles, faces, flowers, buttons...) and there are even plants and plates with fashion models on them. And the color!!!
So here is my creation for this challenge.
I found a paper that resembled the fence, and a large flower stamp that I used to represent the tires. I rummaged through my stash and found a die cut with a lady on it that I added. At the bottom of the inspiration photo, you can see the word "enjoy" so I added the quote using "Joy". I used paint, stamps, Stayz on ink (black), stickers and a punch. The base is a 5.5" x 5.5" x 1.5" block of wood. I love using this size - it's fun for gifts and doesn't take up much room on a shelf, desk or wall.
I can't wait to see all the wonderful creations based on the photos. Thanks for stopping by!!
