March Challenge - Something Green

Hello! Thank you so much to all our entrants from our February challenge. We are overwhelmed by the number of entrants and the talent. Thank you so much :) Before we show our beautiful DT's projects, we will announce our Top 3. It was with extreme difficulty that we chose:

1st: Angelica
Shared 3rd: Polka Dot Craft Club 
Well done! Please take the badge from the side to display it on your blog!


March is our/the Irish month for celebrating our Patron Saint - Saint Patrick. As preparations get underway worldwide for parades on 17th March, we decided to keep in line with this.
Our theme this month is:

Our challenges are open to ANYTHING crafty or arty - cardmaking, scrapbooking, altered art, crochet, knitting, sewing, baking, painting, drawing, candle making, jewellery making, whatever makes you craft or be creative we would like to see it!

For this months challenge, Katya made a recycled eco style card with natural green elements.


Sylvie has made a Mixed Media Canvas, for this months challenge, using lots of embellishments and green materials!




For this months "green" challenge, Emily painted this picture on heavy watercolour paper using mixed media.



Geraldine has been admiring the watercolour cards trend around lately and decided to let the Something Green happen where two inks meet! 



Pixie created a Matchbox book with bookmark (Check out Pixie's blog for a tutorial and to see who is hiding inside!)



Michelle made an Altered box (check out Michelle's blog for a step by step!)


                          Eithne made this Pretty Card Holder

So that's our beautiful Design Team's inspiration :) 

To see more photos and details on each of the projects, just visit our blogs! Why not give the challenge a go? 

We would love for you to join in our challenge, remember anything that encourages, motivates or promotes your creativity, if it has GREEN included on it we would LOVE to see it ;) Our challenges start the first Friday of the month, and ends the last day of the month (so this month's finishes March 31st)

We are pretty easy going about rules, but if you'd like, read this page.

Thanks for popping by, hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Happy Crafting,
Michelle & Eithne :)
