'Always follow your Dreams'

For my second layout I have used these 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces....

I started off by giving all pieces a good coat of gesso....

Then inked the Vintage Hot Air Balloon black...

I gave a good coat of gesso, to the the Always follow your Dreams title
 which also ended up getting a bit of orange splattering..

A coat of gesso on this Polaroid Frame & then I inked the edges in black.

With a coat of gesso I have cut up & used the  negative/leftover pieces of the 

 Chevron Bits The negative/leftover pieces are a GREAT way to add an another

 layer & texture to your page, don't you think ?

With the actual Chevron Bits I have inked purple black & teal..

First Challenge for More Than Words

How EXCITING to FINALLY Share!

Our VERY first reveal for More Than Words - 

January Main Challenge......

Our Main Challenge is based on a Word inspiration and a Creative Challenge.

This challenge is open to layouts, canvases and art journal pages only.

What does the word "PERSONALITY" inspire you to create?

You can choose to use the word somewhere on your project or simply be inspired to create from it.  
Please explain in your blog post how it inspired you, if not already obvious. 

The creative challenge is to use a "SELFIE".

It is as easy as that!  All of the DT have used a selfie of themselves on their project in order to introduce themselves to you during our very first challenge, but for your project, you can use a selfie of yourself or anyone else (kids, husband, best friend, etc).

Or, if you have no selfie, any photo of you will be fine.

'Selfie'

"I'm a REAL homebody so for this 'selfie' challenge, I have used this photo that I took where I love to be... my home!  The quote by Katy Perry is one of the many ways to describe my personality."

Products:

2 Crafty Chipboard – mini butterflies, Graceful Butterfly, 6’ Clock face frames, Selfie word from selfie pack,

13@rts – Frosted Life, Fly Away & Faces Of Spring papers & Stickers, Ayeeda mists – Chalk turquoise & Pastel pink

Lindy’s stamp gang – Tea pot purple

Liquitex – Gesso, Light Modeling paste & Matte medium

Be Sure to stop on by the More Than Words Challenge blog -------> HERE too not only check out the AMAZING array of layouts my fellow DT ladies have created, BUT! to also check out the AWESOME prizes up for grabs....

We cannot wait to see your interpretation of our January PERSONALITY & SELFIE challenge!

Link up your project using the LinkyTool in the right sidebar by January 31st at 11:59 pm EST!!

Thanks for popping by & HAPPY NEW YEAR to you!
