Welcome!
A new month means a new challenge on ArtWithNoBoundaries!
The theme for the first fortnight is : Anything Goes Heavy Metal.
Yes, it's a double challenge again! You can enter any of your fabulous new projects or take part in the Bonus Round and follow the theme. This put you in line for a unique sentiment from CSDesigns.
My creation evolved from the image I started with: Solitaire Heavy Metal. I foiled the screws on the images. That was how the faux metal idea started. I played around with some of the other images, but couldn't really decide what to use. Then I coloured Solitaire and 3D'd her. Things started to take form. I layered her on black and orange cardstock that I dabbed with some black. The kraft card I wanted to use looked, ummhh boring. Out comes my inks and paints and stamppads and some sponge.
10 minutes later and on the second card, and I think it looks rather metally, rusty yes, but like metal....
Solitaire is added to the card, together with a bronze metallic ribbon. But something is missing. I go through some stuff and find what my card need, 3 metal buttons with an interesting pattern. I think they are a perfect fit and finish.
Here is Solitaire with her faux and real metal:
From another angle:
A bit closer:
The buttons:
Well, I hope you liked my card as much as I enjoyed creating it.
If you did, go and find a bit of metal, in your man's toolbox, or as a last resort, your sewing box. Then join our challenge.
While you are there, have a look around and be sure to visit the blogs of the others on the Design Team. We have 3 new team members : Bonnie, Lori & Paula! You'll love their fabulous creations too, I'm sure!
