Gemma 

I am excited to say this is my first inspiration post for We Love to Create. and my first real use of PanPastels. I am loving both my new teamies and the product. I applied Magenta Shade and Blue through a stencil making sure to blend them into each other. Then I stamped the flowers and text onto book pages and coloured them in using Titanium White, Violet and Magenta Shade Pan Pastels. You can find out more on my blog and I am looking forward to seeing everyone's entries for this challenge







I've made a journal page using lots of the lovely metallic Pans for my project this time. You can find all the details on my blog








Terry: I was having fun making a notebook...this time I worked on the background with first Gesso and a bit darker colours.....a bit of blue, reddish, green, blues and white....When all the colours dried up I played with a flower stencil and used Crackle. A few dots of blue and red and a couple of sentiments and my notebook was ready. One last layer of Matte Gel Medium and my inspiration notebook for you guys is done. Wanna see more pictures? than I suggest you click on my name and check out my blog....

Now back to our new challenge and our DT have got some beautiful projects to inspire you ...

Terry: I had fun making a Tag, The first layer on the background is Gesso, I played with a couple of PanPastels with purple and blue colours to create the background. I mixed the PanPastels with water to let the colour spread all over the Tag. I worked with a stencil of flowers and crackle and right after that I was finished with that,  I colored a butterfly with the same colours PanPasels. Last but not least I stamped some sentiments and placed them on the Tag.








Claire I've made a little tag this week using some of my favourite PanPastels and gorgeous stamps from Polkadoodles too






Lou: I've been playing with mount board scraps to create a drawer unit decorated with gesso, pan pastels, gilding flakes, stamping and die cuts ... phew! Full details and more photos can be found on my blog ...
