Becca's highlight - #3 Kirsi - The composition of this just blew me away! I love the repetition of circular shapes, the hand drawing, and the splatters. One word: Gorgeous! |
 |
Lee-Anne's highlight - #16 Suchi's card just pops in the gallery. Love the dramatic look of her fussy cut orange butterflies on that gorgeous black and white background.
Melissa said - Suchi's vibrant card is a real stand out. I love it's beautiful, but stunning, simplicity. |
 |
Maria F's highlight - #21 Ela - I just love Ela's grungy rays, making the frightened pumpkin appear to be falling out of those scary hands. |
 |
Jenny's highlight - #25 Rahmat says she she's not very good at Mixed Media, but I love her bold design and the use of the paint to highlight the centre flower. I also love the angled panels! |
 |
Yasmina's highlight - #19 Mona- I really love this little owl and the design of Mona's card! |

Lysa's highlight - #11 Mac Mable: I love the spider Web and the spiders made from buttons, how clever.

#23 Mac Mable - at first sight the card looks very "clean" but then there is so much going on when you take a second look. Mixed media fun!!! I found it extremely hard to choose just one highlight this time, there were so many fabulous card submissions this time. Loved everyones cards!!!
Shirley said - #23 Mac Mable. I love the balance of this card - the contrasting colours and textures, the frame within a frame, the placement of the butterflies, and then you slide back down those glossy leaves to the sentiment. Fabulous grouping of elements!

Julia's Highlight - #12 Chris G - I love the face on her ethereal moon, the grey cloud and black bats |
