Hello aArtists!

It’s time for another challenge from Anna Aspnes. The AnnaTeam selects a creative page or design concept from the Anna gallery as the ‘AnnaLift.’ Be inspired, create your own ‘AnnaLift,’ upload your page to the Anna gallery and include it here in this forum thread. Upload your page by Friday 05.26.23 by 8:00 pm EST with the title, ‘AnnaLift. ’ One lucky participant will be randomly selected to win a $5.00 GiftKard to Anna’s shop.

HOW IT WORKS: On Saturday the AnnaTeam posts a creative concept from the Anna gallery as the ‘AnnaLift.’ Check out the inspiration and decide what speaks to you. Is it the design, the color, the wordART, or maybe the photo? Then enjoy artfully playing—there is no right or wrong way to ArtPlay.

Choose ONE idea to lift or choose it ALL and lift it completely. Be inspired, create your ‘AnnaLift’ and then upload your page to the Anna gallery, plus include it here in this forum thread. It would be great if you could link back to your page in the gallery too!

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.

If you’ve never challenged yourself to an AnnaLift—just do it!

If you’ve never posted or shared your AnnaLift—just do it!

If you have time to leave some love for someone in the gallery—do it too!
(Your kind words may inspire and encourage someone!)

Please post your art in this thread and link to the Anna Aspnes gallery to win the $5 giftcard.

Such a Day by ksacry

Such a Day by ksacry paints a beautiful rainy day. Silhouette figures are blended with bright splashes of paint and rainbows to create a “happy” rain. The focal image is blended into a watery scene. The color palette features pops of red, blue, yellow, and green as they begin to flow and shift in the down pour. An overlay of rain splatters as the viewer is drawn into the image. An adorable sun appears in sunglasses to anchor a cluster of ribbon and threads. A beaded WordArt title is paired with a song lyric for a strong, uplifting message. Kathy has created a stunning design to fight the rainy day blues.

Thank you, Kathy, for sharing your stunning and inspirational artistry.

No wi-fi so this is later than I like to be, but it gave me time to wrap my mind around rain, which is somewhat rare for us to see. It's overnight or only for a few minutes most of the time. :D

I don't think I have a rainy day photo in my stash. I'll have to rectify that. Decided instead to use a recent photo I took of autumn leaves. Had fun saturating their colours. Thanks so much for all the beautiful inspiration here.
