A break

Good morning all Darksiders ! Last fortnight's
challenge got some really cool contributions
again. You are such a talented group of artists,
i really get impressed every single time.

This saturday i will not post a new challenge
for you though, i am putting the challenges on
hold for a while. This does not mean the challenges
will not return, i am just not sure when that will
be.

I wish you all a lot of happy crafty hours and
am looking forward to seeing your contributions
when the challenges return. Happy crafting !

Challenge #75 : Sometimes they come back



Good day all Darksiders and welcome to another challenge !
Sadly, there was only one participant for the last challenge
but as we tend to say in blogland : better one than none.
And it was a very beautiful contribution too !

Now onto our new theme : Sometimes they come back.
I was inspired by a film title but you can give the theme
your own scary interpretation.

Now for the recipe that goes with this theme :
(remember, the recipe is optional)
square
no purples, blues and greens

I hope you will enjoy this new challenge, i am looking
forward to your creations.
Happy haunting, happy crafting !

Good day my Darkside Friends, another scare awaits you !

Last week we only had two submissions and i am therefor
putting out this challenge hoping we will get to see more

And i want to add the following recipe to this theme
(the recipe is optional) :
- the colours dark, mossy green and wine red
- something gold

Challenge #70 : Bones

Hello to all Darksiders ! To begin with i want to ask
you for another form of input this fortnight : i want
your favourite themes, bring em on :) I do of course
have my own inspiration, but i would really like some
fresh ideas. I also want to know if you feel like some
recipe challenges, in which i decide about some key
features of your art.

Oke, now for the theme : this time it is going to be ...
Bones. You can do any form of art, use materials as
you wish as long as you make it scary.

Happy crafting !

Challenge #69 : Where wisps lead you ..

Good morning al Darksiders. Another year means a lot of
new possibilities for us to express ourself via Dark Art !
Let us therefor not waste time and start with this year's
first challenge, being "Where wisps lead you ..."

To kickstart your inspiration i have an excerpt of a
text about wisps here :
A will-o'-the-wisp or ignis fatuus — also called will-o'-wisp,
corpse candle, jack-o'-lantern, friar's lantern, gunderslislik,
and wisp — is the folklore term for a ghostly light sometimes
seen at night or twilight over bogs, swamps, and marshes.
It resembles a flickering lamp and is sometimes said to
recede if approached.

I wish you a lot of inspiration and happy crafting !
