• Paint or Mist Color Trends Challenge

    Photo Credit

    This challenge requires you to create a card, scrapbook layout, or altered item using the color challenge and a mist/paint technique. Misting is a fun way to add color to projects. Whether you spritz some mist or paint sporadically on your project or use it to completely cover an element, we want to see ways you like to use mist or paint creatively.

    The main colors are featured in the challenge inspiration board above. Remember, colors can be incorporated into your project in more ways than cardstock.

    Upload a photo of your project to your blog or online gallery, such as Flickr, then copy the direct link to your project/post to the embedded link widget below or on one of the design team’s blogs. If you do not have a direct link to your blog/gallery posting that features the challenge, your link may be deleted. If it is deleted, no biggie, just come back and re-link the correct link! Only links left in the link widget will be considered for challenge submissions.
