The challenge over at Mixed Media Monday is to use your least favourite colour. It was easy choosing a colour – PINK is certainly my least favourite colour! The challenge was to find items to use in this piece. As I am definitely not drawn to this colour, I have very little in my stash that is pink. For some reason, I also decided to add another least favourite colour in the form of orange.
Painted on cereal-box cardboard with gesso and pink and orange paints. Stamps are French Quarter, by See-D’s, stamped with Staz-on Graphite Black. Images from Lisa Vollrath’s Christmas countdown.
For more details on how I put this piece together, visit my website Mixed Media Art.
Happy creating!
Michelle

Hi Michelle, it’s lovely to “see” you again! I think you did an amazing job with two colours you don’t much like. It’s funny how many of us have chosen pink 🙂 Diane
