Craft Barn "Alpha/Dictionary" Challenge

The new letter for the Craft Barn challenge is "A". Since I'm just back from a vacation in Croatia I didn't have much time to think about it and went for Alphabet. It's an alphabet challenge after all :)

I've drawn 26 equal sections for the single letters and a bigger one for the definition. Then I choose 13 different Distress Inks, masked off the 26 sections and coloured them in with the DIs using each colour twice. The definition section and the top borders was coloured with another DI. I used the same DI colour for the chipboard letters and glued one letter in each section. Finally I added the definition.
 
Thanks for looking :)

Craft Barn "Alpha/Dictionary" Challenge

The new letter for the Craft Barn challenge is "J" with the twist to include a dragonfly.

I went for the word Journey. For the background I made a colour wash of Distress Inks and crumbled the paper to get a bit of a vintage look. I then used a stamp all over the background. I printed out an old map and made it look a bit used and glued it to the background. Then I added tamps from the corresponding continents. Since I didn't find a stamp for Africa i used a stamp with a dragonfly :)

Some added extras and the definition added as well. 
 
Happy weekend and thanks for looking :)
