The Beach Chickens are flying away

I promised to share some of this months challenges with you. This month there were 15 challenges and I completed them all with 1/3 awarded Gallery Standout status. Very pleased by that so will show you those 5 pages. Here is one that really surprised me. We were given a zip containing a variety of items from which we had to create a page. Here is mine:

For the next challenge we received a small zip that contained 3 items that could hold something. The task was to use one in such a way that something was inside and part of it out.

Task 3 was to scrap an Autumn quote.

For my 4th GSO, the task was to create a masculine page.

THe 5th GSO was for the Progressive. We choose our colors and theme then follow directions a step at a time on how to create the page. (That is, things like: use a blended background, add x number photos, etc.)

And now the last zip of Beach Chickens, the remaining elements.

It's almost over - Beach Chicken, that is

About ready to wrap it up. Saturday will be the last zip & it's more elements. What's next? Too early for Halloween so probably some quick things like stamps and papers. Not sure yet.

More Beach Chicken papers today

Quick post. More papers today (the files are large so had to divide them into separate zips).

Beach Chickens & Examples of recent challenges

There has been some interest in the digital art challenges I do so here are some examples from August. One popular challenge on Just Art is called Cock & Bull where we are given an old photo and have to make up a story to go with it. Here is mine:

For the Use It all challenge we are given a zip containing several papers and various elements from which to make a page. We can re-color the items, blend them but must use a certain number of them and can only add a title or wordart that isn't included.

And finally, my favorite challenge which is a Progressive. On 5 different days we are given instructions to interpret and gradually make a page. I love this challenge because it often requires using techniques or styles I might not otherwise use. Here is my August Progressive final page.

And now more Beach Chicken
