Entering this project for few challenges.

1. More Than Words Challenge:


Loved their March challenge "Everyday Bugs & Birds". I adore creating with birds and flowers, so was fascinated by their creative challenge. For the word inspiration "Everyday", I connected it with the current bad situation we all are facing and for that used the quote "Everyday has a new hope".

Where everyday we wake up with a new hope that things will be better today, leaving the bad memories behind and having faith for a better beautiful tomorrow. Everyday, we hope for sunshine, joy, freedom and happiness. Which is what I have tried to showcase in my creation. Hope to spread some positive vibes!

Sharing my first DT inspiration for @mixedmediaacademy January challenge "New Beginning & Bright Colors"




What a fabulous challenge to start the new year!
I have created a mixed media layout on a reverse canvas; inspired by the lovely quote."Trust the Magic of New Beginnings!"
Truly, it's perfect to begin the new year....a new journey....a new hope....a new challenge!
When it's time for a change, you can feel it in your bones, and there's nothing like that feeling - feeling of chasing something new! Excited, anxious, happy...maybe even a little scared ...but those feeling drive us towards something new!
Similarly in my artwork, the girl on the unicycle portrays feeling of chasing something new... beginning a new journey...with a hope to explore the magic of the unknown!








I have used lovely Metallique Paints n Stencil "Iris Tapestry" @Finnabair_studio n #primamarketinginc, pretty flowers @littlebirdiecrafts, @lena_foeng & @papersource, fabulous chipboards @creativeembellishments n beautiful lace n window chipboard @hobbylobby.

Entering this layout for More than Words challenge. I was inspired by the lovely and bright sunset colors and by the word "highlight" as new beginnings highlight a new journey and a new hope. My layout also highlights the little girl's journey to explore the unknown.



Happy crafting!
