WEEK 1 - OCT 2020 MUSE CHALLENGE

​

Hi everyone, welcome to the October Muse Challenge.

This month I wanted to keep it simple so I decided on scrapping about the seasons, but adding just a slight twist.

Each week we will look at one of the seasons and for each week I want you to include the following THREE things on your layout:

1. Tell me what you like (or dislike) about this particular season (You can use journaling or just some word art).
2. CHOOSE a colour palette that YOU feel represents this particular season for YOU. (For instance, you may like to scrap an autumn page using blue and purple because YOU like it.)
3. Include a texture(s) or geometrics shape(s) that represent this particular season for YOU.

You may scrap about anything you like but you need to include those three things on your layout.

WEEK 1 - AUTUMN
If you like, you can use this mood board to get some inspiration in regards to colours and textures.

​

Even though it is Spring Downunder, I love Autumn and will scrap about it any chance I get.

For me it is all about the changing colours of autumn, the smells of damp undergrowth when I go for a walk in the bush, and the beautiful cool days after the summer heat is gone. It's also a time that I find myself thinking about childhood memories, my own and those of my own children, when they were just little ones. A time to look inward but also to look forward and dream of things I want to do.

Here is my page:

I met the challenge conditions by:
1. Tell me what you like (or dislike) about this particular season - I chose to use journaling for this point, plus some wordart as well.
2. CHOOSE a colour palette that YOU feel represents this particular season for YOU. - I used a purple based palette because I just love that colour and I think it goes lovely with the autumn oranges.
3. Include a texture(s) or geometrics shape(s) that represent this particular season for YOU. - I added some textured background paper along with some paint splatters.


RULES FOR WEEK 1:
Scrap about any autumn related topic, but you need to include these three things on your layout:
1. Tell me what you like (or dislike) about AUTUMN. (You can use journaling or just some word art or both ).
2. CHOOSE a colour palette that YOU feel represents this particular season for YOU. (For instance, you may like to scrap an autumn page using blue and purple because YOU like it.)
3. Include a texture(s) or geometrics shape(s) that represent AUTUMN for YOU.

You may create any style of layout (ie. clean and simple, artsy, pocket style etc.) you wish, with or without a photo. Create any size page you wish. This is for everyone, so have fun and see where the inspiration takes you.

Please post your layout to the Art Journaling Gallery HERE prior to October 31, 2020 EST and then post it in this thread by copying the code (at the right of your gallery image) from the box under "Share BB Code".

We will draw a winner at the beginning of next month for a coupon!! You can use any products in The Lilypad store or retired products from current Lilypad designers, (just make sure you follow our gallery guidelines).
