ARTastic CT call

Hi all,

ARTastic is having a CT call. I have enjoyed this team so much and if you would like to join us here are the details:

ARTastic is looking for monthly Guest Designers for 2014 and a yet to be determined number of Creative Team members.   Could this be you?

I don’t care if you have been scrapping for 8 months or 8 years or where you live in this big wide world of ours.  I don’t care what your style is or how much design team experience you may or may not have and I don’t even care if you use paper or your computer to create your work. Everyone is welcome to apply!

What I do care about is your passion for the craft and your commitment to being part of the ARTastic team - be it for a one month guest slot or for many months as a team member.

I would ask you to create one layout/project per month using the inspiration and criteria provided.

I would ask for your commitment to post your work with a link to ARTastic on your blog/FB once your work has been revealed on the blog and promote us when and where you can.

I would ask for your commitment to comment on all entries as they are submitted for each challenge.

At the end of the month I will ask you to submit your votes for the winning entries.

You will need to have an active blog and it would be preferred if you are on FB so you can access our private group where we interact with each other.

Initial term for new Creative Team members will be 1^st January to 30^thJune 2014 and will in all likelihood be extended.  Guest Designer positions will be allocated on a monthly basis throughout 2014.

Please email your interest to jjjustjane@bigpond.com byNovember 6th, 2013 indicating if you are applying for a team position or for a guest designer spot - please include a link to your blog and a little about yourself. 

Please don't be shy, we are very friendly :).

Card by Justine

Hello,

My girls are enjoying the school holidays and have been busy sewing and card making. My eldest girl, Justine(13) made this card for her cousins wedding which is in a weeks time.

Justine has embossed the background page and for the love heart has written the word in glue covered with fairy glitter. She has also inked the edges to blend it in with her card.

Justine has made the card for the challenge at The Pink Elephant using anniversary or wedding theme.

I'm always so happy seeing my girls busy crafting, it brings much joy.

Bush Masterchef

We start another month! And with it a new challenge at ARTastic for you to try.
This month the inspiration piece is by Mia Taninaka.

The criteria to go along with this piece is feather and/or wood.

And here is my interpretation:

A cute page showing my son's(on the left) and his friend's bush food. I have used some of the colours from the inspiration and have used twigs to frame the photo.  

 I love journalling on the computer and putting a border around it.

A close up of my twig border, I was surprised how nice it came up.

We would love to see your pages this month at ARTastic, it is always fun to see what people come up.

We have school holidays here in the west which is always nice. We plan little day trips for our holidays and some crafting time at home. Hope you enjoy your holidays if you have them too.
