Did you know Polly scraps has a forum?
Anyways... .Kayla asked me if I could set a monthly challenge. Who me?? right.... so what could I do that would help me and others.. you know.. that in itself was a pretty tough question for me. It took quiet some time, lots of notes and drawings.. but there was one thing that most of this notes had in common... and that was style and colour.
I love fiddling with colour. I cut bits out of magazines (never mind that I have subscription to Vogue living magazine just so I can cut pictures out!) and stick them my inspiration book, I pop my paint samples/sprays next the picture.. I stick in fibers that I have and punch out objects - all things that relate to my picture.. ok.. maybe I have to much time on my hands... but never mind the black circles under my eyes...
Then I realised I like to 'style' things. Maybe that's because I play 'house'- I move this and that around the house.. rearrange.. just because I find it fun.. perhaps a bit of interior design.
anyways, I love texture, the look and putting things together.
I love looking at Pinterest, Polyvore, Vogue living magazine, The Colour room... it becomes addictive.. I am warning you!!
So with all that in mind I decided to start a new monthly tradition at Polly!.
