Door Hanger Tutorial & Challenge

Michelle Perkett Studio at Paper Craft Planet has just reached 300 members!!!  Woo Hoo...congratulations Michelle...this is so well deserved! Your artwork is beautiful :)

As part of the celebrations, I have posted a Door Hanger challenge & tutorial on the group discussion board. If you would like to play along you will need to join PCP (it's free), go to the Groups heading (top RHS of the Home page), click on Michelle Perkett Studio and join the group...easy :) The girls there will welcome you with open arms...they are such a lovely, fun group! Once there you can find all the challenge requirements and the free tutorial under the Door Hanger challenge heading on the group's home page :)

Anyhow, now to the important stuff...I am offering a $15 gift voucher for Michelle's Etsy shop to the winner of the challenge.  Here is a little inspiration for you.........
The door hanger is a Kaiser wood form. The hanger was painted with copper metallic craft paint and the front papered with CM DP from the Vintage collection (been in my stash for a while!) The image is Michelle's beautiful new Amore Fairy, available from her Etsy shop HERE. She has been printed on to Express Graphx blending paper...LOVING THIS PAPER!!!...and coloured with Copics. Glitter pen was used to highlight the flowers and the wings have been glittered. The wording is computer generated. Amore has been cut out and mounted with dimensional dots.

A close up of Amore..........
I hope you will come and play along with us...it's going to be a lot of fun! Can't wait to see all the amazing creations :)

Challenge closes at midnight Monday, 26th April. Winner will be drawn by random generator and posted on Tuesday 27th...good luck!

Note: Please link your entry to your challenge post...not your blog home page...so it's easy to find your project :) If you don't have a blog to link to, please email me your photo and I'll post it for you.
You must be a member of Michelle Perkett Studio PCP group to qualify for the challenge prize.
