November challenge

The year is almost over (Where did that go?)
Welcome to our November challenge.



No, it is not a real house! Imagine if it was. Would be ideal for twins wouldn't it?

OUR CHALLENGE THIS MONTH IS TO USE FRUIT ON YOUR ENTRY

It can be any type of fruit you like and it can be in the photo or on your surrounding work.

That sounds like fun doesn't it?

Here's a card idea I saw on Pinterest.

Our winner for October is Judy W.
Our overseas winner was Jackie.

July challenge

The July Challenge is based around this picture.

We want you to use either gesso or texture paste to create a stucco effect (think rough sides of buildings.) It doesn't have to be on the whole card or layout, a featured area will do.

I've also used "chip it" to create a colour palette. THIS IS OPTIONAL.

Our sponsor this month will be me.
I was given a selection of Darkroom Door items so you will get a gift pack from that.
