CHALLENGE 5: ‘A TOUCH OF WHIMSY’
If you like bold colours used in unique ways – think dots, checks and stripes – then whimsical is the style for you!! It uses the newest techniques without too many fancy accents!

The emphasis is on cartoon shapes, 3D elements and fairytale embellishment such as wings. There is a large focus on the photo in this style, and the journaling is minimal but fun, meant to invigorate smiles and laughter.

Typical elements include flowers, swirls and flourishes, but a delightful twist and an element of flair are essential. A great technique to emphasis this style, is silhouetting your photos, cutting out a head and putting it on a cartoon character, or adding wings to make a little fairy.

So your challenge today is to create a layout in the ‘whimsical’ style using the following criteria:

  • Flowers
  • Swirls/flourishes
  • Rub-ons
  • doodling

And the optional (bonus points) criteria for this challenge is to include a silhouetted picture!!

The prize for this challenge is a $20 Basic Grey Bling It Pack

All entries must be loaded into the ‘A Touch of Whimsy!’ folder in the Nov CC Gallery folder by midnight Nov 25th!!
