The 40th MyGrafico Challenge!

It's a milestone - this week MyGrafico Challenges is celebrating it's 40th challenge!!!
You have made MyGrafico successful and we are thrilled to have participants that keep coming back each week.

In the next few weeks there will be some changes to the challenges and the 1st one is being announced this week.
As we look at our 40th challenge, we see that we have given away so many wonderful sets and we would love to see you use those sets. So starting today, all challenges will require MyGrafico images to play along.

You might say I don't have any MyGrafico images - well you're in luck because the FREEBIE SECTION has lots and lots of images to chose from.

And now for the best news for our 40th celebration!
The winner of this week's challenge will have an opportunity to be a Guest DT for MyGrafico Challenges for the month of April. Would you want to be a guest DT??? I know you would!

How to apply? Simply play along with this week's challenge. Remember, we have a challenge that was posted on Monday and a sketch challenge today, so you have more chances to play along.

This week we are playing with Vintage Chic Elements and this sketch:



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And I have to say, since I created a completely digital card once before, I am so hooked on this idea that I created another one for this week:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I just can't resist using some of the awesome digital items I have collected like these papers from Gina K Designs, the lace and pins from Gunhild Storeide and the button from Shabby Princess. The texture on the mannequin and all of the hat are various patterns I have in my Photoshop program. Doesn't it look 3D? I just love the look!
 
So I hope you'll play along with us this week and stay tuned for more changes being announced next week. Don't forget - to play along, be sure to use images from MyGrafico and link up over at the Challenge blog - I can't wait to see what you create!
 
I'll be back with more artwork soon (I have some new stamps that are waiting to be inked up)! Meanwhile, you can come see what's new over at Ridiculous Lab. Have a great day!

Very cool. I think this card has that Simplicity/Artistic feel to it.
