MayzyArt Challenge #004

The theme for this challenge is

Flights of Fancy!

You may have guessed from my designs that I'm a pretty fanciful person.  I spend more time than I probably should staring out the window and daydreaming.  With that in mind, I've selected 'Flights of Fancy' for this week's theme.  

I invite you to get creative with this one.  Are you thinking literal things with wings?  Or maybe a really fantastic daydream?  Go out on a limb and let us know what 'Flights of Fancy' inspires in you!

Let's take a peek at what the always incredible MayzyArt Design Team has come up with...

Let's review the rules...

- The MayzyArt Challenge is open to anyone!  All you have to do is create a card or paper craft project that matches the challenge's theme.  It does not have to use a MayzyArt stamp.  

- In order to enter, post a link to your blog post featuring the project.  Please be sure that you list on that post that you wish to enter the project into the MayzyArt Challenge.

- There will be two winners of the MayzyArt Challenge!  The first winner will be drawn at random from all entrants.  That winner will receive 3 MayzyArt stamps of their choice.  The second winner will be chosen only from those entrants that used a MayzyArt stamp in their project.  It will be selected specifically by Mayzy and will be featured for the following two weeks on this blog.  That winner will also receive 5 MayzyArt stamps of their choice!

- Entries must be received by Friday, July 13.  The winner will be announced on July 14.

Have fun and I can't wait to see what you come up with!

MayzyArt Challenge #003

The theme for this challenge is:

Black!

I was so excited to see all of your colorful creations in our last challenge, so now it's time for something a little different.  You may not have noticed, but I have a distinct appreciation for the stark simplicity of black on white and black is one of my favorite colors. What does it evoke for you?  A dark night?  A cat crossing your path?  Maybe that perfect little black dress?  Show us with your creations for this challenge!

Let's start by seeing what the ever awesome MayzyArt Design Team came up with...
