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 09.02.22 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.

Avec les Copains deCoquelle by Myla

In avec les copains deCoquelle, Myla has artistically recorded a memory. Summer friends are depicted in a black and white photo. The collage paper leaves and clocks accent the torn frame and add dimension. The block design of the ground contains subtle visual textures of stripes, lace, and leaves. The neutral browns are accented with greens, whites, and yellow. The bright butterfly directs our attention to the journaling. The artsy placement of stitches, splatters, and beads move our eyes throughout the design.

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

thank you so much for the wonderful page to lift♥
I was particularly inspired by the torn frame and the black and white photo

the photo shows my grandmother with friends on summer vacation at the Baltic Sea 1920

I love the heritage photo! Works beautifully with the beach elements!
