Reveal for February.......

Hi everyone!
A new month means a new challenge, and we have another awesome one to share with you today......


How creative can you get with a limited supply of products?
Can you make LESS into MORE?
Whether you are art journaling or scrapping, we can sometimes get overwhelmed with the idea of how much stuff to use... so this challenge is about stripping it back, using less and stretching your supplies in different ways.

 There's a whole stack of reasons to create with limited supplies.
You may be attending a crop/creative session and not have the space for stacks of stuff.
You may be brand new to the whole mixed media world and not have a lot of supplies at your disposal yet.
You may be scrapping at a friends or attending a crop.
You may be travelling (lucky duck).
You may want to push yourself creatively. 
Have you ever sat down to create and been at a loss of where to begin?  You just move and shuffle things around without actually achieving anything?  Yes, we have all felt this way. Limiting your supplies is a great way to refocus you, give you some direction and push your creative spirit to think outside the box.
Try it, you just might be surprised!!

That's what happened for the Design Team this month.
Each DT member was sent a pack of limited supplies and asked to show creative ways to use them, ensuring that both their projects looked completely different yet with the same products.

Each received:
2 paints
1 spray
1 stencil
1 stamp

You are just gonna LOVE what they created, so let's take a look:















Aren't they amazing??
You can see that it really kicked their creativity into full speed!

Tomorrow on the blog, the Guest Designer for the month will show her amazing first product, and then each of the Design Team will share their project in detail, so keep popping in.

A bit later in the month all of the Design Team will share another project using the same limited supplies.

We can't wait to see your projects, to see where this challenge takes you.

It's so easy to enter.
Just head to our Scrap Matrix Shares Facebook Group and find the February - Limited Supplies folder, upload your creation and in the comments just let us know what limited supplies you used (paint, spray, stencil, stamp).
You can add other items - pens, embellishments, patterned paper etc - those basic supplies are required to create your background.

It really is that easy.
There is no need to have a blog!

You could win a voucher to the Scrap Matrix store (guilt free shopping!!), or the opportunity to Guest Design with us!!

Have fun!
