Beautiful elegant overall design, love the splatters that have been incorporated, an unusual combination. The co-ordinated envelope is a really nice touch.

 Fabulous colouring and we love the castle theme that's apparent throughout - taking the shape across the two pages to bring them together.

Challenge #72 Monochrome with Ike's Art

It's Friday! And it's a holiday weekend so we hope you will all enjoy the break if you're lucky enough to have one! I have 4 kids so it's not a holiday for me!!! However, we do have a new challenge for you if you have a chance to do something crafty this next week. We have the fabulous Ike's Art as our sponsor this week and our theme is Monochrome. 

Now for those of you who know Left of Center Creative Challenges, you'll be aware that we accept all entries that meet the theme AND some which dont - anything that you make which comes under an alternative/LOC theme is more than welcome! We have added a new LOC category to the rules page this week - 'Risqué'. Technically, this has always been accepted, we've never turned away anything 'sexy' but we just wanted to clarify that you are more than welcome to add your naughty/sexy/risqué creations to the linky tool and we will accept them under the LOC theme at any time!
