Hey there!

I'm back on the blog today with a layout for the January moodboard challenge.

This months colours were very bright and colourful, I loved the moodboard and this having been my first moodboard challenge, I now understand why it has that title. Having not worked with such bright colours before, I found this layout quite challenging which was great- I do love a good challenge to get me out of my comfort zone, so I hope you all like the end result.

The card stock I chose to use already had some of the moodboard colours on it which was a great start. It had so many great elements already that I didn't need to add any stencilling or mixed media, just some simple machine stitching

Some of the flowers used were Little Birdie 'Natalie Vivid Palette' and they were the exact colours I needed to match the moodboard colours so if you want a crack at the moodboard challenge (there's still time!), check out these flowers in store at Random Arts now.

And what's a layout without some chipboard or little accents here and there? The beautiful heart shaped chipboard worked so well with this photo, as did the little shells which I painted dark blue. Look closely and you'll see a lot more within the clusters. I used some cheesecloth and art stones too.

So if you havn't seen this month's moodboard yet, then here it is again. You have until 31st January to get your entry in here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/111931106102590/
And remember, you could win a $25 Random Arts store voucher! Good luck everyone!

Until next time...
