'Be Yourself' - with Emma Zappone

Hello Everyone!

It's been a little time between projects for me, but I'm popping in to share a mood board inspired canvas with you today. You have all enjoyed an amazing Long Weekend of creativity with all the awesome challenges, but have you had a chance to play with the April Mood board yet?

Here is my take....



And here is the beautiful Mood board.....



The colours are simply stunning and totally my vibe!
I also used a couple of sheets from the 'Industrial Revolutions' Foundations Pack.



I focused on the circles from one of the sheets, this really helped my composition come together well.



I even repurposed some packaging from some ribbon I had used up.



The fabrics used are also from Lucky Findings Fabric Shreds I have used some from Earthly Riches & Very Peri, I love the softness they add to a project.



I just adore this months board and the it was a joy to create this project after quite some time of not feeling any creativity.



I hope you get the chance to create along with this challenge too.

I love seeing all your creations.

Till next time, Stay Creative!

Em xx
