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 December 1, 2023 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.


Eventide by helenedubois

Helenedubois captures in Eventide the whispers of color in a golden sunset. The focal image is displayed in a frame of paper rips and layers of warm paint. The colors reflect the evening sky in blues, golds, and soft purples. A majestic bird cannot be contained by the small frame and bursts free. Splatters of white paint ground an element of leaves, twine, and thread. A series of postage stamps create an accent and complete the design.

Thank you - helenedubois - for sharing your stunning and inspirational artistry.

IDEAS TO INSPIRE: Use ONE or MORE of the following in your AnnaLift layout.

• Document the soft transition of light associated with dawn or dusk . . .
• Frame an image with torn paper . . .
• Use complementary colors in soft tones for a striking effect . . .
• Repeat small frames as accents . . .
• Paint the background with artsy transfers . . .
• Add brushes for textures and imagery . . .
• Select multimedia elements for dimension . . .

PRODUCTS TO INSPIRE:

APP Winter Sunrise
APP Imagination
Artsy Transfers Winter Sunrise
Artsy Kardz Inflorescences
MultiMedia Leaves No. 7
Paper Textures No. 17

Upload your page by Friday at 8:00 pm (EST) with the title, ‘AnnaLift ’ and one page will be randomly selected to win a $5 GiftKard to Anna's store. The winner will be posted here on SATURDAY.

Fading Away is a small still life photo taken by myself. The end of this years flowering blue Rose of Sharon. Old pages, fading blooms and memories in a cool feel. The flower is set in an old tin among vintage papers and book. The flower falls free of the frame not ready to give up its beauty. Elements include hearts and beaded thread and branch
All effects and elements are from Anna Aspens Designs
