Welcome to A Mixed Media Color Challenge!

Hi there! I, Mona Pendleton and my dear friend / design team mate, Sue Lelli would like to welcome you to A Mixed Media Color Challenge ~ where mixed media enthusiasts are invited to share their creativity!  
Here's the scoop: Basically, a new color combination will be introduced every other week on Thursdays at 11:59 PM Eastern and will run for nearly two weeks ending on the second Tuesday at 6:00 PM Eastern. A Featured Artist will be chosen by the DT and the sample will be prominently displayed on A Mixed Media Color Challenge. Occasionally, we will offer prizes!

***Please keep in mind this is a MIXED MEDIA color challenge therefore we would like for you to COMBINE at least TWO types of MEDIUMS (ie: paints, markers, pastes, mists, inks, etc...), in addition to the "traditional" stamped / colored image to create your project. Let's get creative and Create Outside The Box!

For nearly the next two weeks, we will be playing with the following color combination shown below:
Please be sure to use the following colors as your MAIN colors:

Light Pink, Silver and Black

Here are some fabulous samples that hopefully inspire you to create:
Our featured artist for this challenge will win the following:
We would love to see what you create with this pretty color combination! Please refer to sidebar for complete guidelines. 
Thanks!
Mona
