Weekly Challenge Winner

Morning all,

It's a busy morning here on the blog! 

Two winners to announce....

Mr Random Generator has blown a 

gasket as we have had so many

entries for both the Challenges!

Thank you so much to all who have

entered!

We have really started the new year

off well!

Ok, so your Challenge was Hat

and we had 24 fabulous entries.

And Mr Random Generator picked.....

.....no 3.....

Jackie Edwards

Alpha/Dictionary Challenge,

Alpha/Dictionary Challenge 2016

Helloooo,

How are we all??

I've just had another look at how the

B Challenge is coming along and oh my
goodness we have 33 entries so far and
 the link isn't closed yet!!

Wow, thank you to everyone who is entering!

So, today I am here to announce our 

next letter.  Sometimes when I do this

it will not just be a letter but perhaps

something that has to be added in with the 

letter......just to keep you on your 

toes!!

I decided to give the DT the chance to

pick the letters for the next few 

weeks.  First up is Neil and he picked ......

Q

This time there will be no extra bits added

but I have to warn you, next time Dawn has 

picked the letter and added something to 

be used with it!

So, your mission, should you wish to accept

it, is to pick a word beginning with Q and

use that for your project, not forgetting to add

the definition in your work.  We must be able to

see that definition in your creation!

What have the DT been up to then.....

 Karen has chosen to use a printers

tray, using a different square for each

letter.   

Karen's Q for queen using an old postage stamp.

Dawn has decorated journal pages

with Q for quartet

and Q for Quintet

Oh my goodness, huge apologies to
Neil as I managed to miss adding this....

Q is for Quirk...

I'm so looking forward to seeing what your
 Q will be!

Well I'm sure you know the rules by now,
you have two weeks and the link will close
at midnight on the 7th February.
If you cannot use the link then send your pic 
to me at janecraftbarn@gmail.com
I will then add your pic for you.
The winner will be picked by Mr Random
Generator and announced on 
Tuesday the 9th.  A £10 voucher will
be up for grabs!

Have fun, enjoy the rest
of the weekend.

I'll be back on Tuesday with two
Challenge Winners!!

Blue - Neil Walker

Hello again,

Welcome to the weekend!

Goodness, these weeks are flying past,

is it me or do you think that too?

So, today Neil is here to show us

what he has been making for you!

Neil has been under the sea.....

sounds like a Disney theme 

and made a beautiful bookmark 

For my project today I chose to make a simple

 bookmark. I began by inking the book mark

 with Distress Ink in Blueprint Sketch and Mermaid Lagoon.

Laying my Ocean Jellyfish mask onto the bottom

 and taking a moist wipe I removes some colour.

Then using my Shoal Positive mask along the top

 I did the same to add some depth and interest.

The next step was to add some bubbles using

 Liquid Glass.

Some detail was added with Liquid

 Pearls along the base.

Finally, to finish I grabbed a tassel from my stash

How amazing but simple is that? 

What a lovely present that would make?

Thank you Neil.

So, if you want to have a go, this is what 

Neil used -

Stix2 Bookmarks

Distress Ink - Mermaid Lagoon

Distress Ink - Blueprint Sketch

Tando Masks - Neil Walker - Ocean Jellyfish

Tando Masks - Neil Walker - Shoal Positive

Liquid Pearl - Platinum

Mixed Media - Clear Liquid Glass

Well that's all for today, I'll be 

back with the Challenge tomorrow.

There will be a new letter for you!
