GC72: Color Challenge - Neutrals plus one color

Welcome to another Gingersnap Creations Color Challenge. Our inspiration this month is the ancient world with its stone statues, marble pillars and dusty old maps. In keeping with this palette, we chose for the color challenge....

N E U T R A L S plus O N E C O L O R


Artwork by Laura Liddell

When the challenge closes on October 24 we will pick 7 Ginger Gems - fabulous creations that we feel really exemplify that challenge's objective. The Ginger Gems will appear in our wrap-up post and in a slide show in the blog bar for an entire week and their creators will have the honor of displaying our Ginger Gems blog badge. In addition, we will pick one random winner, whose work will be featured on the Yahoo Group homepage and in the blog's sidebar.

For your chance to be eligible as a Ginger Gem or as a Home Page Artist, just follow the simple guidelines below:

1) Make a paper crafting or mixed media creation using a neutral palette and ONE color;

2) Post your creation to your blog or online gallery with a mention and link to this post; and

3) Come back to this post and leave a comment including a DIRECT link to your creation or use the linky application below. Remember to make it a link to the specific post or picture and not just a general link to your blog or gallery. We need to be able to find your art!

For more information on our challenges and directions on linking, please check out our FAQ page.

One random winner and seven Ginger Gems will be announced from the qualifying submissions on October 26. You have until October 24 to enter!
