Art By Miran Facebook Group Progressive Challenge
Hello friends. We have had beautiful Spring like weather in Southern CA; so I have been able to ride my bike a few times. The warmer weather always makes me feel like I need to do something to my house; such as spring cleaning. LOL! I decided it would be more fun to create more cards; so that was my choice rather than cleaning.
Art By Miran has a private Facebook group page; so you do need to request permission to join. She just started a progressive challenge every month; beginning with January 2015. This means you start by purchasing a discounted Art by Miran image she has chosen for that month; create something with it, enter the challenge; and then you will receive the next month's image free. Isn't that fabulous?! I love her images and plan to participate as much as possible. You can only enter using the image she has selected. It is fun to see all the different creations using the same image.
Here is my first creation for this challenge. I used her Artbymiran Petal Blossoms; which is the creation she chose to use in January. Click Artbymiran to shop. The challenge ends Feb. 12, 2015; so you have plenty of time to purchase this image and create a fabulous entry for her Facebook Progressive Group Challenge. I did use a bigger size card this time; because I wanted to use my Anna Griffin Flourish die. I cut out a 6 x 7 1/2 size card; plus added the taller piece on the right to accommodate the Flourish die.

The color of her hair isn't this bright; but everything else appears to be correct. I guess taking a picture of the card makes her hair brighter. LOL!
