It's Claudia here this month to present our new challenge. As always our theme is
Anything Goes - Steampunk/Industrial
but as Halloween is fast approaching we of course also welcome projects that are a mix of both - steampunk/industrial elements and Halloween fun! This way you don't have to interrupt any Halloween swing you're currently in but are still able to play along with us (and get eligible for one of our two prizes being given away to randomly drawn players by our generous sponsors DecoArt media and boozybear). The challenge is open until the end of the month. Prize winners and Top5 will be announced on the 15th of the following month.
If you haven't already checked out our few and simple to follow challenge rules, we would like to ask you to do so before entering our challenge - it would be a shame if your wonderful makes would have to be excluded from Top 5 votes or prize draws!
As mentioned above - Halloween is in the air already: so a great part of the design team have also come up with projects that have a Halloween twist. But have a look yourselves:
has come up with this awesomely textural
"Double Frame"
Just look at the beautiful detail in the background:
Maura
headed over to the darker side this month, inspired by the legends of the Celcitc goddess Morrigu.
She created four ATCs using alcohol inks, then connected them into a folding panel.
Kerstin
has once more created a beautifully layered mixed media panel in her unique style.
"The Halloween month has begun -
the right time for a tombstone in a bewitched place!"
she says.
Susan's
amazingly textural and wonderfully eerie project
goes by the title of
"Survivoring Halloween"
Zoja
has once more created a steampunk project using
vibrant colours and combining these with beautiful
steampunk themed bits 'n bobs.
You just gotta love this mini steampunk album!
and I
- Claudia -
have challenged myself with the mission to use up some of my long hoarded tiny scraps and pieces I have been keeping in little tins and bowls on my desk (some for ages) and combine then into a mixed media steampunk canvas
The only spooky detail with my project is that it has one piece on it that I have been hoarding
for at least five years now! lol

As usual you will find more images and info on the projects by visiting the design team's blogs. Please, leave them a little love there if you can spare a second or two. You will make them very happy by doing so! Thank you!

So get your thinking hats on, rummage your boxes with those long hoarded treasures, browse your favourite steampunk and Halloween themed dies, get out your favourite colours for this time of the year....do whatever makes you happy at your craft desks and share the results with us by entering our challenge. We love being inspired by all your fantastic makes and your imagination!
Don't forget to come back here on the 15th to find out who made it into our September Top5 and who won the prizes from our two generous sponsors!
Hugs and happy crafting!
