October 'Take the Challenge!' with Mou

Hi everyone, Mou Saha here!

Today, I have a challenge for you. I feel that creative challenges help us experiment and learn new things. Challenges can help us get unstuck from creative ruts. They can also inspire us to create in ways we would not have thought of otherwise. So, I decided to take a few creative challenges myself and thought you might like to play along.

Every month, on the first Monday, I'll post a challenge and my take on it. You'll have 12 days to take this on. Leave a comment to the challenge post with a link to your creation based on that challenge. The following Monday, we will pick THREE winners randomly from among the readers who participated in that week's challenge. And the winners will get a prize from Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft®.

Today's challenge is simple: Create a project with WORD ART as the main focus!

If you are new to word art, let me show you some samples for inspiration... I found these:

I am always inspired to make word art with pens, markers, pencils like these...

Being October, I'm thinking why not Halloween? So, here's my take!

Don't forget to share your clallenge creations with us...just leave a comment with link to your project image(s) by Friday, 10/12 and we will pick THREE winners randomly to win a set of prizes each!

The prizes for this challenge are:

TWO packs of PITT^® Pastel Pencils in your choices of colors!!!

There are 3 color choices to pick from:

BLUE/GREEN, RED/YELLOW, and NEUTRAL.

Don't forget to check back on Monday, 10/15 to see if YOU won! The winners will also be tweeted at @DesignMemCraft! Don't forget to leave your twitter handle!

Hope you play along!
