Step Out of your Comfort Zone!

This week at Tuesday Taggers it's my (Sally's) turn to chose the theme. I don't know what I was thinking, but I came up with 'Step out of your Comfort Zone!' I wanted to push myself into doing something different to my usual style and try something new. Now it has been a little scary, but I've done the cover and first page of an art journal using lots of paint and no ink or stamps at all! So, all I'm asking really is for you to try something new or different to your usual style... go on give it a try! You could try a colour scheme, a technique, a different fold or even a different craft altogether! Hope our fabulous DT inspire you with their creations!

To start then we'll show you the design sent to us by our guest designer Charli who was "soooo worried that it was going to go wrong"



It definately didn't Charli!

Now our regular design team







Ildiko

I never used canvas


Blackdragon

How pretty Lyn LOL!



Janet

I've limited my supplies and used a card shape I don't normally like to use





First attempt at creating reflection with brayer a la Barbara Gray



Bee
I don't usually "do" cute and flowery, or make many cards as such so this easel card is way outside my comfort zone.



 
Soooooo Pink!





I have used fabric which I wouldn't usually use.



Now, without further ado we are proud to announce the winner of last week's recycling Challenge

Number 16

Congratulations Ann, and if you would like to join us for a week as a Guest Designer drop us a line on the TT email.


Don't forget you can join in with anything you would like to create this week as long as it is out of your comfort zone!....Can't wait to see your entries

    Ooooooooooooh this is an interesting one. Not sure whether to try the brayer (have now watched all 4 videos by Barbara but brayer is still clean) or do some scrapbooking. Hmmmmmmm we'll see but will hopefully join in.
    Love the DT work.

    Out of my comfort zone - glamour not something that I would consider in a million years if it had not been "forced on me". Hence my little sparkly red effort. Thanks for the challenge.

    I'm sure no one will believe how long it's taken me to make these clean and simple cards - well outside my comfort zone! Great idea, though :) Thanks, Sally.

    Great challenge! I definately stepped out on this one! No journaling AND white space. Although, I think WS is growing on me :)
