Welcome to As You Like It Challenge
Our fortnightly challenge is a home for you to create something
which gives you a warm "inner glow" of pride, without lots of entry rules.
CHALLENGE RULES:
Usually we provide 2 or more contrasting options for you to choose from.
Join us by using your favourite option within your creation.
To be eligible to win our prize, or top-3 spot,
you must explain why you've made your choice,
so we can appreciate why you're proud of your creation!
eg, if the theme is 'favourite animal' and you decide on 'rabbits',
maybe the reason is that you love Thumper, the bunny from Bambi !
So get crafting and remember the main requirement in creating is
to have fun and enjoy your crafting time!

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using
Your Favourite Embellishment (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.
Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

I love creating cards with texture and embellishments, my favourites being paper flowers. I've added a posy of cosmos daisies, roses and tulips to this sweet birthday card.
I find myself using flatter embellishments to save on postage. I like small acrylic dots, sequins and gems like the ones on this card.
I don't have a favourite embellishment, but I do find myself using Liquid Pearls often to add a bit of texture or emphasis. They are good to fill that little blank area to give extra interest.

I don't use much embellishments on my cards. because I don't like making very bulky cards. I love the look of ribbon on my cards. It is a nice decoration, but still really flat, except only for the bow.
I like to add a few flat back pearls when it suits the card. They add a bit of elegance and fill a space when it looks a bit too empty.
I am a big fan of enamel dots or pearls. They come in so many colours and add a little something without the bulk.
**coming soon**
It's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge and show us your style.
Don't forget, you MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to be eligible to win.
Good luck, and happy crafting.
Hugs from the AYLI girls.
