Today I would like to share a layout for the challenge over at 13 Arts . I came across the challenge a little while ago and it appealed to me. FINALLY got around to doing the challenge last night and if finishes tomorrow , Phew !
The criteria is
Rules of the challenge # 23:
1. Use a white background for your project. It can be cardstock, watercolor paper or patterned paper. You can have motifs and designs that are coloured but the base must be white and the white should still be visible after all your alterations.
2. Use a black and white photo. For cards or art journals, your sentiments/journaling should also be in either black or white.
3. The colours on your project should come from paints or mists, or any other colorants (distress inks, water colors etc). This applies to embellishments as well ie. if you use flowers or letters, they should be white or cream and you color them with your paints or mists. There's no restriction on what colours you want to use - you can have rainbows or you can have all black and white.
4. A song (title or words are ok, in your language of choice) as your theme/title.
I think I have the criteria covered
Look at the stars
I chose the Cold Play song "Yellow" to remind myself how blessed I am. I have a beautiful family, friends, health and my children are healthy. So many people today have so much to contend with, so I feel I am very fortunate.
I have added a tiny bit of ink and paint to my flowers and gessoed and ink/painted the leaves
and some gessoed stars for the title
Thank you for calling by, I hope you are enjoying your weekend
Love , Peace and Happiness
