Our challenge was to make an item in Mardi Gras colors. I chose a collage image from "altered pages" and used a portion of a mask image from "Art Chix" to complete the focal point. From there, I added metallic embroidery floss for ribbons on the mask, and then glitzed up the mask and beads with stickles glitter in green, purple and gold.

The blue box will get you lots of attention---seems to just have the opposite effect for what it is intended to do. Love how you combined the theme with the colors. The mask with the streamers is fabulous. This one is my favorite of your set.

Thanks gals....Know what kills me? The multitudes who look and don't leave a comment. Bwak, bwak, bwak....! They even do it with the non-blue boxed stuff. I don't get that!
