Day 16 - "N"

No-line colouring is a fabulous technique that gives your finished image the appearance of being painted or coloured directly onto the surface. If you want to give it a go, I highly recommend choosing images without too much tiny detail that can easily get lost amongst the vibrant colours.


YOUR TURN: Create a project using the letter "N" as your prompt.
Upload a photo of your creation to the
Challenge Gallery

INSPIRATION WORDS:
North Pole, noel, nativity, naughty, nice, nutcracker, northern lights, no-line colouring, napkin fold, never ending card, naples yellow, navy, neon

Day 14 - "L"

When I was in primary school, bubble writing was all the rage and learning how to do it was essential for playground kudos. Four decades later and my hours of bubble-writing practice have paid off, allowing me to create my very own candy cane alphabet. Hooray for 80's pop-culture!


YOUR TURN: Create a project using the letter "L" as your prompt.
Upload a photo of your creation to the
Challenge Gallery

INSPIRATION WORDS:
Lights, list, log, love, lettering, layering, letterpress, lever card, latch card, lavender, lemon, lilac, Lord, lamb

Day 13 - "K"
