    This month I get to show you this beauty! I always love every single M3 when it comes out, but this one makes my heart skip a beat! It may be the bright colors or just the amazing positive energy that emanates from it, or it may just be that is SUPER COOL!

    Welcome to this month's Three Word Challenge!

    OH WAIT! This month we are NOT doing a THREE WORD CHALLENGE. You all know how much I like bending the rules and changing things and pulling the rug from under you. I have to say it should be an easy peasy rug pull with this gorgeous kit to use and don't forget about the amazing add-ons that go with it.​

    For the challenge you are to make a doll out of foliage and flowers, and seeds using your M3 kit.
    A few words of inspiration:

    1. Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature
    2. All the flowers of all the tomorrows are in the seeds of today
    3. A flower does not think of competing with the flower next to it. It just blooms.
    4. As the sun colors flowers so does art color life

    Here is some inspiration I found in Pinterest, if you click on the image it will take you to the amazing artists behind this super cute creations. Your dolls DO NOT have to look anything like these, you do not have to show me and entire doll (but I want to see something more than just a face), but I ask you to be creative and a bit crazy (or a lot crazy, because if you can rock crazy why not go there and stay there while you play). So think of foliage and flowers for arms or hands or feet or everything.

    Anne thought the challenge a bit corny, but I think it's super cool! Flowers are so versatile, and you all rock the flowers and in mixed media you can make a doll out of flowers, a house a scene, and they would be so fun and maybe some scientific definitions of different species of plants

    The challenge will go until the next release June 15th! The winner will be announced in that thread!

    Fine print rules and regulations:
    - Your page must contain at least 60% of M3 products
    - Post your layout in this thread and the M3 gallery.

    Sorry for the second posting. I couldn't help myself. The "slacks" are supposed to be bell-bottoms. My little flower hippie...

    DALIS MADE ME DO IT

    For a multi-media challenge at The Lilypad. Everything is from the May 2016 3M kit and add-ons. The font is Blockography. I hang my head in shame.

    I think mine is not flowery enough, so I might have to make a second one. Ok, I am just looking for excuses to make one more. LOL!!!

    Ha! What a fun and unusual challenge Dalis! It's been ages since I've joined in one of these (real life can soooo get in the way of the fun stuff;)) but I think I'm going to have to play: I wanna make a doll too!
