Winners - Challenge#29 - Colours

Good Morning! Our thumbnail display looks fabulous with the all the colours in the monochromatic challenge. We have a super range of styles from very clean and simple, through layers to grunge - they were all super. However, it's now time to announce the winners, and they are:

WINNER

#14 - Veerle

Monochrome perfection!

Love the clean, crisp design and super sentiment!

HONOURABLE MENTIONS

(in order of submission)

#1 - Marina

Marina has created so much depth with her layered stamping, this is actually one layer!

Lovely shades of green!

#20 - Carol

The colours perfectly echo the theme - and the coffee words are super.

Love that sentiment too!

#21 - Rahmat

This is a wonderful example of the bokeh technique.

Using blues makes it feel like bubble in the water! Great work!

Ladies - congratulations to you all. Please pick up your badge from the sidebar and display it no your blog. Thanks to everyone who played along with our monochromatic challenge.

Now, before I go, I must remind everyone of our current challenge - which certainly appears to be a big challenge!!! Only two submissions as I write this post. Our current challenge is MAKE IT MOVE (TMR#30). We want to see interactive masculine style projects. There are several videos on our original post showing how to make waterfall, slider and spinner cards. Go on, have a go!!!

Winners - Challenge#28 - Theme

Hello, I'm running rather late with this post - busy catching up with stuff at home since getting back from Florida on Monday night! It was fabulous! Anyway, it's time to announce the winners and honourable mentions for our Oriental challenge. Not so many people played along this time, but those who did really rocked it and made it tough for us. So here are the results:

WINNER

#6 - Karren

Love the kraft with the blues and green.

Super little origami bird and that watercolour panel with oriental characters is outstanding!

HONOURABLE MENTIONS

(in order of submission)

#8 - TheGrandStampede

Shawna has created so much depth on her one layer card.

Love the shadow behind the focal image and the palms are just perfect.

#12 - Susanne V

We really like the use of mulberry paper here, adds so much texture.

Great image and beautifully coloured. Super oriental characters.

#17 - Janis

The oriental dragon is awesome - love the mixture of shimmer, sparkle and colour.

Lovely layout and great colours.

Congratulations to you all. Please pick up your badges from the sidebar and display them on your blog.

Before I go, there's still time to join in with our colour challenge. You can pick any colour for our MONOCHROMATIC theme, just remember that it has to be masculine in style. Deadline for submission is midnight (GMT) Tuesday 1st March (7.00pm EDT). Have fun!
