Scrap Africa Challenge 43: One Little Word for 2015
For our One Little Word challenge at Scrap Africa I was inspired by a recent tutorial by Gabrielle Pollacco to create something a little bit out of my comfort zone. I love mixed media and I love working on canvas and I have been wanting to do lots more of it. I think this was a good kick start to my creative year. I didn't do quite as much to my canvas as Gabrielle did - just used the general idea as inspiration.
I chose “Fearless” as my word for 2015. Last year my word was “Believe” - believe in myself that I can do whatever I put my heart and mind to and believe in God that He will equip me and bring me through any task He sets before me.
This year I have decided to JUST DO. No over thinking, no worrying about what other people are going to think, no wondering if I'm up to it or not - just let go and make it happen - Fearlessly.
I used a branch chippie by Creative Embellishments - love their products!
And one of Ingvild Bolme's new Stamp 'n Add designs.
My first choice for OLW for this year was “Challenge.” I work well under pressure and deadlines are a great inspiration as they force me to use my time productively. I have found that I can challenge myself to do more and be more creative. That is my goal for this year. So far I'm off to a great start, having started my decor project with Annie Sloan chalk paints. My house is currently in a state of disorder that I am too ashamed to let anybody see but it's my mess and I know how awesome it's going to look when it is done. I have furniture in different stages of completion standing and lying around and I am constantly covered in paint and wax. What a great holiday I'm having. Ha! I will post pictures next week when most of it will be done.
