Sparkle & Shine Blog Hop & Challenge



Hello Everyone,

Welcome to our Sparkle & Shine blog hop and challenge, thank you so much for stopping by, hopefully you arrived here after visiting the super talented Elena Morgun's blog. 

The project I would like to share with you is a box, this box arrived into my hands after purchasing a pair of sunglasses. I never ever throw away a good box, they are always upcycled into something new. The perfect gift for a good friend, especially when they are filled with chocolates. 





Products Used
Art Basics White Gesso
Art Basics Black Gesso
Art Basics Modeling Paste
Art Ingredients Glass Glitter - Gold Rush 
Prima Mechanicals Tassel
Prima Mechanicals Pendants
Prima Mechanicals Washers
Prima Mechanicals Clock Face 
Flying Unicorn Adornments Box Corners
Lumiere Paint - Halo Blue Gold
Lumiere Paint - Pearlescent Blue 


Here's how our challenge works:

First of all, make sure you blog hop with our Creative Team. Below you can see the list of all the blogs where you can find some really breathtaking artworks.
Make sure you visit each of the ladies to see in detail how they played with all kinds of sparkling materials. Don't forget to leave a kind comment!



We hope you'll feel inspired and ready to create some sparkle of your own!

The rules of the challenge are very simple indeed - you can create any kind of project (layout/art journal/altered art/ATCs etc) and our Creative Team will vote on their favorite one.

 The only rule is: making it sparkle & shine!

The challenge's open 'till February 8th.

 Look at this amazing prize you could win...ooooooooh ahhhhhh isnt it beautiful?
