NOVEMBER 2024 ANYTHING GOES (with an optional twist)

  AUTHOR: SUZE





Wahoo! Did you guess the surprise we mentioned last month? 
From now on we will be Anything Goes, and add an optional twist. 

For the month of November, the additional twist is create a Christmas Card with a handmade background

We will have badges for prizes 

Life is getting busier and busier here, and some of our creative minds  have gone from digital images. Not saying we don't still love them, but may want to show our creativity in different ways. Or mix different elements together. 

We have always encouraged our players to use any creative outlet (painting, sculpture, polymer clay etc) but I think because we had digital artists as our sponsors we all thought we had to stick to that avenue. It has never been that way but that what the rage was :) 

Incy Wincy has been around since 2008/2009 so we were due for a change I think!! 

If you would like to join the DT just drop us a email and we can go from there. 

Take Care everyone and cant wait to see your creations

Hello! I am back after a month long break from blogging. What a nice way to be back and be the author of this month's challenge. Thank you to fellow DT member, Karen, for this month's challenge theme. I hope you join this month's challenge. Have fun creating!

Each month we will have a theme or 2 as usual - but we wont be featuring any sponsors. 
We will do what we feel for the theme and share with you. 

We will have badges for prizes. 

Life is getting busier and busier here, and some of our creative minds have gone from digital images. Not saying we don't still love them, but may want to show our creativity in different ways. Or mix different elements together. 

We have always encouraged our players to use any creative outlet (painting, sculpture, polymer clay, etc.) but I think because we had digital artists as our sponsors we all thought we had to stick to that avenue. It has never been that way but that what the rage was :)

MARIA GISELLE - Blog


Hello, Incy Wincy friends! Thank you for your continued support to our group. We are striving but we are a strong crafting group. There are lots of options with our theme for this month. Please don't forget to mention in your post which theme you chose and why. We appreciate any interaction from you, guys!

Aside from the sketch, I chose song as an additional theme to my card. There are several songs entitled 'Because of You' that I like. One by Keith Martin, another by Kelly Clarkson, and also by Ne-Yo. Different song genres but I like it all.
