CHALLENGE #2 - "AWARENESS" ... OUR 1st CHALLENGE WITH THE NEW DESIGN TEAM + FREEBIE

Hello Peeps,
Well - I seem to have a few Gremlins in my system and coupled with the fact that I won't be here for a week, I am a little freaked out !!!  I was hoping to get everything sorted before I have been unexpected called away... as it were :-(

I was going to introduce you to the new DESIGN TEAM but this is one of the major problems with Hotmail eating or not sending my mails :-(

We will be announcing the WINNER of CHALLENGE #1 a little later on a separate Post. :-D

So - in order NOT to be late with our first Challenge with the DT, we will go with who we have so far :-)
Some people are on holiday or in hospital, so I will delay announcing the whole Team and just publish projects by my Girls as produced at extremely short notice - aren't they Angels ?!!!

This fortnight our Theme is 'AWARENESS', since October is officially Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the Team have used IKEsART image called "AWARENESS".

BD made this awesome Brooch/Bag charm with the image set in a fantastic jewel  AND she used pink !!! Not her usual palette hahaha LoL 









GINNY
on Holiday at the moment :-)


and here's IKE this time :-D

This image called "AWARENESS" and is Free for you to play along with us. 
There will be NO PINNING, GOOGLE+-ing or any other form of publishing any of my images I give you !!! If you want to share anywhere please ask me for a Watermarked Copy.                                                                              DO  NOT  DO IT.... OK ?!!!!  Please respect my rights as an artist.

HELLO AND WELCOME

Well Hello there and welcome to IKE's WORLD CHALLENGES. :-)
This is an idea I have been chucking about this last month and finally decided to go for it !!! The site is a little boring just now coz I couldn't use the wallpapers and stuff I wanted  and Blogger really messed me about yesterday, so we'll go with this for now :-D

Now, most of you know me for playing a bit on the Dark Side, but this Challenge Blog is NOT just for that... I want it open to all sorts of creations, so please don't be shy. :-D 
The only stipulation for Challenges I have here is that you MUST use an IKEsART image for your creation if you want to win any Prizes that are on offer :-) Simples eh ???!!!
There are a variety of images for all tastes over in my Shop - IKE'sART, and I shall be also giving out images to play with in some of the Challenges (you'll have to email for these when the time comes coz I am fed up of people Pinning my stuff  to all and sundry !!), but a lot of sites do that so that's easy peasy too isn't it ?
Please help yourself to a Badge if you so desire and I will be popping back a bit later :-D

Thank you for stopping by :-)

Ike xx
