S.W.A.T Scrap Warriors!

It's time for another Drill over at S.W.A.T Scrap Warriors! This week we are continuing to share the love long after Valentines day. Our challenge for you this week is to create a project with the theme of LOVE! Your project can be a Card, Layout, Art Journal Page, or Canvas. I created a card for the Practical Scrappers Hop using some Jillibean Soup, but I just couldn't stop there I had to get a little messy! So here is a fun canvas using lots of mixed medium products even some Art Anthology!! I 'm even working on a slide show video to show you how I created this little canvas. I will let you know as soon as its done.. It will be my first one so its a bit of a learning curve :)

Some Details for fun!!

Well I hope that you have been inspired to create something lovely today! Just make sure you link your project over at S.W.A.T Scrap Warriors by the end of the month for your chance to win a super fun 3 Scrappy Boys Kit!
