Hi everyone! It's May 1st and time for some new challenges . . .
First, the May Challenge at More Than Words opened today!
More Than Words has simplified their art journal challenges this year and will have one main theme to inspire you each month. This month's theme is CELEBRATIONS. Feel free to interpret the theme in any way that you like. What does celebrating mean to you?
Here is May's Challenge:
And here's my art journal page:
In our family, we love to celebrate the things that make each of us
happy. Our daughter, Anne, loves panda bears . . . we have always
called her joy for pandas - "Pandamania!"
I used ArtStacks'
new releases to create my page. I thought that the image of the panda from Tamara Laporte's "Artsy Animals" was the perfect focal point for my page! I placed this adorable panda on one of Tam's backgrounds from her "Fabulous Faces" pack. Please look closely so that you can see the little flower that the panda is holding! And I added "flowers" growing around the panda - also from Tam's Fabulous Faces pack. I must say that this page was so simple to make, too!
I hope that you get a chance to check More Than Words his month!
I am also linking my page to April's Art Journal Journey Monthly challenge:
This month is hosted by Aimeslee Winans! Her blog is Paper Paisleys Art Adventures and her theme for May is "Flowers!"
Aimeslee says: "One thing I dearly love about both seasons(Spring and Fall) are the
many flowers that bloom, so I have chosen FLOWERS as our theme for May"
I cannot thank Art Journal Journey and Aimeslee
enough for her wonderful challenge!! I cannot wait to see how all of
the wonderful AJJ artists interpretations of her theme.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Enjoy May!
