New AnnaLift 06/08/19 - 06/14/19

Hello aArtists!

It’s time for another challenge from Anna Aspnes. The AnnaTeam selects one creative page from the Anna gallery as the weekly ‘AnnaLift.’ Be inspired, create your own ‘AnnaLift,’ upload your page to the Anna gallery and include it here in this forum thread. Upload your page by Friday 06.14.19 by 8:00 pm EST with the title, ‘AnnaLift. ’ One lucky participant will be randomly selected to win a $5.00 GiftKard to Anna’s shop.

HOW IT WORKS: Each Saturday the AnnaTeam posts one creative page from the Anna gallery as the weekly ‘AnnaLift.’ Check out the inspiration page and decide what speaks to you. Is it the design, the color, the wordART, or maybe the photo? Then enjoy artfully playing—there is no right or wrong way to ArtPlay.

Choose ONE idea to lift or choose it ALL and lift it completely. Be inspired, create your ‘AnnaLift’ and then upload your page to the Anna gallery, plus include it here in this forum thread. It would be great if you could link back to your page in the gallery too!

Anna’s products mix well with so many kits/designers and Anna welcomes you to include these with your Anna Products on your AnnaLift page.

If you’ve never challenged yourself to an AnnaLift—just do it!
If you’ve never posted or shared your AnnaLift—just do it!
If you have time to leave some love for someone in the gallery—do it too!
(Your kind words may inspire and encourage someone!)

Please post your art in this thread and link to the Anna Aspnes gallery to win the $5 giftcard. Or include the link in the your posting.

THIS WEEK WE ARE LIFTING:



Peru by Malou29

Golden and glorious completely describes this week’s lift. A series of radiant holiday photos shines in the center of the page. The triptych of three associated photos featuring birds flying over shimmering water is contained by a dimensional frame that adds depth and dimension. While the lighter image in the middle emphasizes the angles of the folds, the richness of color in the end photos anchors the design. The heavily textured background provides a pleasing contrast to the smoothness of the water and its reflection. A botanical stalk, a button, a bit of script and wordART complete the art with a stylish flair. This very gifted artist has a unique talent in capturing the essence of a landscape in her stunning art. Her work makes you revel in their spectacular colors while making you experience the joy of vacation memories.

Thank you, Malou29, for sharing your inspirational design and creativity.

Thanks Christy and Malou for this inspiration. I just used that frame the other day.

A three frame design was perfect to showcase how much my barn swallows babies grew in two weeks. Sigh, they'll be gone soon.

I loved our trip to Florence, Italy. We lost our photos from the trip but I can still remember the awe we felt as we walked the streets of this ancient city.
Thanks for a wonderful page to lift.
