Hello Artists! A very warm welcome to our first ever WITHOUT WORDS monthly challenge where we like to play WITHOUT WORDS - we would be thrilled to see you enjoying our fun colour challenges and really hope that you will enjoy this one!
We would be grateful if you will take just a moment to familiarise yourselves with our blog, our CAS ethos (above) and, of course, the dreaded Rules.
We would be grateful if you will take just a moment to familiarise yourselves with our blog, our CAS ethos (above) and, of course, the dreaded Rules.
For our first month, which is SEPTEMBER, our challenge is:
AUTUMN: A season of mellow fruitfulness and rich, warm, colours.
We are looking forward to seeing what you make of this one and viewing your fabulous creations. Please remember to follow our CAS definition and the theme of this months challenge for your entry to be a valid one. Your entry must be handcoloured but can be stamped or digi.
Our very talented Design Team (the Magnificent Seven) have created an amazingly high standard of magic to inspire you. An awful lot of time is spent by the team in creating these mini works of art so don't forget that it would be nice if you have time to visit their individual blogs and share the love.

And just before we go, the Winner and Top 3 will be posted on our Stars Of The Month page a couple of days after the next challenge starts - don't forget to pop back and check it out, it could be you!
The most important thing to remember? Relax and have fun with colour! The challenge closes at 6.00pm (UK time) on 30 September 2012.

LINKY TOOL HELP
The one thing that we all have problems with from time to time is the link tool going missing. If you find that this has disappeared from the challenge, please try refreshing your page. If the link tool still does not appear then you can link your entry via your comment. The HTML code for linking your entry will be:
<a href="link to post"/>text to be seen</a>
If you are still not sure, here is an example of what it should look like
<a href="http://squirrel10.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/luv-ya.html"/>here is my entry</a>
(just copy and paste the address bar from your published post)
The space between the first <a and href=, and a space after the last a> are essential for the link to work.
Yippeeeeeeeeeeee! Here at last! Blimey - you girls can colour! The DT cards are beyond stunning - I may be dribbling now. Fabulous inspiration.

Congratulations on your first challenge launch, I will look forward to joining in each month, learning from the DT and developing my skills further with a little motivation and inpiration from this cool new blog :).
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new challenge blog, fantastic first challenge and stunning cards from the DT. I have to admit that I have fallen into the trap of adding loads of embellishments to my cards, just to keep up with everyone else, so it will be a nice change to focus on the image!

I'm so excited to enter this challenge... it's so nice to be able to show a card that doesn't have to have the kitchen sink on it to "fit". I've always loved images and colour as the primary focus, and your DT inspiration has this in Spades - stunning! I hope the colour palette is autumnal enough, I'll be back anyway, Donna ☺
ReplyDeleteHi ladies, i've just realised that i have entered four times, so very sorry!! have no idea how i can delete my last entry #16, so please delete/ignore it from the challenge.
ReplyDeleteThank you for setting this challenge up as I love the images being the focal point so am looking forward to entering your challenges every month Karen x
