April 5 Item Challenge

Each month we will challenge our Design Team to create a project using five specific items. Such an open-ended challenge means that there is such a wide variety in what is created.

This month the 5 items to use were:
1. Crackle Paste
2. Round Shape
3. Fushia
4. Gears
5. Splashes

If this month’s 5 Item Challenge inspires you to create something don’t forget to share it with us!

“I love doing our monthly DT Challenge because it allows me to step out of my comfort zone. Fuchsia is not a color I would normally use on a project! Finnabair’s Art Alchemy Metallique paint in Wild Fuchsia worked beautifully with the flowers and fussy cut images from the Painted Floral Collection. I used Finn’s White Crackle Paste randomly over a stenciled background. I used resin gears from the Machine Parts mould. Finally I topped off my project with fuchsia splatters!” –Shannon

“This month’s challenge is awesome! I’ve been thinking about doing something like this for a while and now is the right time. I love using Crackle Paste and moulds in my works. Finnabair’s and Redesign’s Moulds fit perfectly on this project. And of course, there are also Prima Flowers in my work. Hope you like it!” –Sanna
