This week, I am pleased to announce a brand new sponsor to Creative Knockouts.  Please welcome Nikki Burnette.  Here's a little bit about her

Nikki Burnette is a fantasy artist who paints all sorts of fantastical creatures in watercolor. Fantasy art is where her heart lies. She loves being able to escape the reality of our world for even just a few hours and enter a new fantasy realm where witches play tricks on Halloween Night, fairies fly around the sweet smelling rosebuds, and mermaids swim gracefully through the water with their dolphin friends. Nikki sells my original paintings as well as a wide range of different products that she creates in her studio.  All her artwork and drawings are original designs.

Nikki has graciously offered 3 images to one lucky person who plays along in this week's challenge as well as provided images for my team to create with this week.   Our challenge for you this week is Anything Goes-nice and easy!  Here are some fabulous creations from my team to get you started.








Lynn using Halloween Witch Rylan

 

Jen using Mermaid Stamp

 

Rae Ann using Esme



I hope you will play along with us this week for your chance to win a great prize of 3 images from our wonderful sponsor- Nikki Burnette.
