***AnnaLIFT 9/17/16 - 9/23/16***

[margje]

It’s Saturday, and time for another AnnaLift challenge from Anna Aspnes. Each Saturday the AnnaTeam selects one creative page from the Anna gallery as the weekly ‘AnnaLift.’ Check out the inspiration page and decide what speaks to you. Is it the design, the color, the wordART, or maybe the photo? Choose ONE idea from the page to lift or choose it ALL and lift it completely. There is no right or wrong way to ArtPlay. Be inspired and create your ‘AnnaLift’ and then upload your page to the Anna gallery, plus include it here in this forum thread. It would be nice if you could link back to your page in the gallery too! Upload your page by Friday 9.23.16 by NOON EST with the title, ‘AnnaLift ’ and one page will be selected to win a $5 GiftKard to Anna's store.". The winner will be posted each Friday here in the forum.
Anna’s products mix well with so many kits/designers and Anna welcomes you to include these with your Anna Products on your AnnaLift page
This week we are lifting: Cottage by Mielz . I’m so amazed by this gorgeous page! No photo was used to create it, the layout is build up by transfers and overlays, some stitches and a few buttons. I love the soft pastel colors and the beautiful design and framing!


Cottage by Mielz

I am so anxious to see what everyone creates, as you never disappoint with the lifts you create, so it is now up to you to choose just what you want to lift from this page. You may choose to lift a single element of the layout, or lift it all - whatever grabs you and takes hold of you when you look at this layout. Have some fun with it - I am sure the results will be awesome – remember anything goes, as long as you are having fun!!!
This week’s AnnaLift will inspire all of us in some way. Maybe you will choose to:
-don't use a photo on your page
-use transfers and brushes and elements to create something of your own
-use soft pastel colors on your page
- frame it in a beautiful way
-use buttons and/or stitching on your page
- play with some texture
-make an artpiece
-design a square framed layout

What creative ideas will inspire for you this week in the AnnaLift challenge?
Try something new.
Have some fun.
Enjoy a new ArtPlay or love an old ArtPlay
Pat yourself on the back for being an awesome YOU.
Upload your AnnaLift to the gallery so we can tell YOU that you are awesome too!
It really doesn’t get any more cool or simple than that!
We can’t wait to see all the fabulous and creative AnnaLifts and we invite you to share your ART with us in the Anna gallery where we will love and encourage you.

I'm not the artist that Mielz is, but I was inspired the seacoast feel of her photo and the lacey effect of the transfers she used. This layout is for the current Anna Lift

This is stunning Bagheertje!!
