December 123 Challenge...

word - make

colour - marigold {orange-red}

technique - MYO (make your own -anything!!)

Have to say a HUGE thankyou for coming up with a fabulous challenge Gigi - it does get hard to think of different colours, words and techniques!

AND I would like to introduce a "not-so-new" face to the 123 Creative Team.... Crystal Goulding,

who has not only been a Guest Designer {back in August} but a regular here at 123! I am soooo happy to have her on our team :)

Here is her first layout as a CT Member!!!

LOVE the Marigold paper and the touch of bright green!

Next is Nicolee Cable...

"So I’ve made a ‘scene’ of sorts ( just a lil bit of grass etc) + I also ‘made’ my own marigold paint colour & I’ve ‘made the most of’.......my ppr having a whopping big circle cut out of it!

·     The word ‘make’ in the journaling

·    & marigold (I really wanted the colour of the snake in the photo to be the main marigold colour)"

Mandy Dodd has come up with the most absolutely adorable "Dorothy and the yellow brick road" theme.... how CUTE is this???

Jodie Armitage has created her own paper,...

And our very own SM Masters....Louise Nelson...

"The background to this layout was created my using gesso and a chipboard template. A light spray of orange chalkboard glimmer mist was then 

applied to highlight the texture of the gesso feather. The wire heart frame was fashioned by hand and attached using clear glue."

Angela Churchill...

"I made my own marigold coloured paint by mixing a yellow and orange, and also made the tag for my journaling."

and mine.... I made my own flowers {Fabulous Flowers from Charms Creations} used the Marigold paper {it looks a very red orangey colour} and the word "make" is in my journalling...

 and I almost freaked out and thought I hadn't used the word... BUT it's in the journalling!!

OK Ladies I'm hoping you have some spare time to give the December 123 Challenge ago - the last one for the year... we have some NEW and exciting things happening next year at the 123 Challenge with some exciting new sponsors and challenges!!!

More details about who's donating this month & also we may have some more stuff up our sleeves!!!

 

LAST DAY...

I'm very excited about the 123 Challenge... for December.... and for 2012!!! We have some fabulous challenges coming up, thanks to a bit of brainstorming from the team {specially Gigi!}

We will also be announcing our NEWEST CT Member.... I wonder if anyone can guess who it could be???

Another bit of excitement... we will be into our FIFTH year... YES that's right 123 Challenge will be FIVE years old!!! wow!
