Well hi! How's it going? What's new?
Today was tribal print day in the challenge and I was under some serious pressure. Now, before I'd even reached day one of the challenge, I had decided that I was not going to do Aztec print. Whilst I had seen some fantastic Aztec-icures (new word alert), floating around on blogs, I thought I'd do something different.
At first, I thought I'd pull out the stops and do a Masai jewellery pattern like this:
Pretty adventurous after a hard day at work right?
The hubby was eyeballing me because he'd already told me to go to bed a million times already...so I had to scrap that idea. Whilst pretending that I couldn't hear him giving me my marching orders, I came across a blog with this picture on it :
Now THIS was slightly more achievable!
Here ya go:
Collection 2000 'Cocoa' - this is a dusty (old/discontinued polish) and I have had this forever. I slathered it in a coat of Nubar 2010 and then did the squares with my trusty acrylic paints.
Don't mind the blue palms.
Phew, glad I got that one out of the way because it was hard just trying to think of what to do!
Delaynee, to name a few ladies, is doing the challenge.
Right, I'm off. I have a date with my Helmer.

I think this is 'simple' (obviously relatively speaking as I couldn't do a single line, let alone a pattern) and effective. Me likey :)
