Winners for Challenge #189 - Quadriptych

There is something so satisfying about sets of four! Four quarters in a dollar; four seasons in a year; four quarters in a football game! And we got some very satisfying results from our sketch Challenge #189 last time! The Quadriptyches you shared with us were beautiful! I wish we could choose 4 winners, too, but two in particular caught our collective eye:

Our Top Pick is: Heather Heroldt

Beautiful paper choices can really make a sketch like this come to life and Heather chose a particularly beautiful Designer Paper matched with some plain cardstock to create her four panels. Her coordinating stamps, with their gorgeous watercolour look, give a quadriptych that is elegant and artistic! Well played, Heather.

And our Featured Artist is: Sona D.

                 

                                       

Sona's mixed media masterpiece features soft neutral tones and a variety of materials in layered perfection. The Design Team loved the kneeling angel silhouette as the focal point, but so many other details around her including the lace, stick pins, snowflake and sequins. There's even some stitching involved in the gorgeous project! 

Congratulations to our winners and thanks to everyone who played along! I hope you'll come back and check out our new sketch challenge tomorrow! Our winners can pick up their badges on this page and display them with pride on their blogs or sites.

Challenge #189 - Quadriptych

A painting or art piece divided into more than one panel is called a polyptych. When there are three panels, it's called a triptych, but when there are four panels, it's known as a quadriptych or tetraptych. I know - who cares? But when you see our sketch today and want to know how to describe it so that you sound all artsy and everything, now you have a term to sling around and impress everyone. "Yes, this card is based on a quadriptych, actually!" (Everyone's jaw drops! You walk away smirking!) So here's the sketch:

What did the Design Team include in their quadriptyches:

Amy Jasper

Heather Cooper

Jan Clothier

Jane Knudson

LeAnne Pugliese

Tara Angus

Here are some guidelines for the challenge:

• Create any card, scrapbooking page, 3D project or packaging   project that fits the challenge.
• Feel free to flip or rotate the sketch and to substitute one   shape for another but we must still be able to see the sketch   in your finished submission.
• Please include the challenge graphic and link back to the   challenge in your blog post. Turn off word verification so we   can send you lots of feedback. Make sure you link the post not the whole blog to the Linky. Use #AYSI189 when uploading to a public gallery.
• If you’re unsure about ‘the rules’, check the details under the Challenge Guidelines tab.
