Challenge #7 ~ Rainbow Colours

Julie and Iwould like to say a big thank you to Cynthia for being our Guest Designer for this challenge. THANK YOU CYNTHIA
Here's a slide of all your wonderful work Thank you for joining in with this weeks challenge













This challenge has been set by Cynthia aka Rainbow Lady who kindly agreed to be our first Guest designer. We asked Cynthia to tell us a bit about herself and to set this week's challenge:-


I am a retired Craft and Drama Teacher living in the Highlands of Scotland, I am delighted and honoured to be the first Guest Designer for Arty Girlz Blog challenge site.

As my forum name is always 'Rainbow Lady' I thought I should use that as part of the challenge. So - I would like you to create a work of art using just THREE colours from the Rainbow spectrum. In case you have forgotten they are (Richard Of York Gave Battle in Vain, or Run Off You Girls, Boys In View)

RED, ORANGE, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, INDIGO AND VIOLET.

No mixing of colours please just use them as they are.

Here is my effort done in Red, Green and Blue. Good luck to all and enjoy the challenge, Love Cynthia x
