AUG/SEPT Challenge - Silhouettes ~ Do Over

Post by blackmageheart »

We're revisiting an old challenge this month - silhouettes. This was a really popular challenge last time around and a few people have asked for it to come back, so here it is!
The only rule is that your entry's main focus (for example your character or thing) should be the thing that is silhouetted. What you do for your background or around it is entirely up to you! It's a really simple concept but I expect to see lots of creativity. For those who are interested, here are the top 3 entries from this time in 2009!

3rd

And check out the rest of the work in the old challenge thread.

All crafts and participants welcome. :)

Challenge extended to September 30th!

Wow, that Aladdin one is spectacular!

If I hadn't already done in my Little Mermaid one would've been it, but since that is long done gotta find me something else. Should be enjoyable. :)

Remember, you don't need to find a silhouette, you could always take a character, item or whatever and fill it in black (or whatever colour you choose).

I totally pictured your stitch while brainstorming for this!
