TTC#5: Fairy Tales + Add your Own Twist

Hi Everyone,

We are just overwhelmed with the number of entries for our last challenge and with each passing challenge and all the enthusiasm we get to see from all of you we are truly motivated to come up with interesting prompts/topics for our Challenges.

We are here today with our 5th Challenge and as always, ours is an "Any Project + Monthly Theme". (i.e. any kind of project cards, mixed media, art journal but it has to include the monthly theme)

This month's challenge is 
"Fairy Tales +Add your Own Twist"



To explain the theme further:  The project has to be related to any of the existing fairy tales or their premises and keeping the core/main premise of the story, you can add an element or twist the story a bit.

To create an instant connect to your project, keep one element from the main story as it is- it could be the gown colour of the fairy tale princess or a prop in the main story like the long hair of Rapunzel. Having done this you can add your own twist to the story, like most fairy tales are about the prince saving the princess. You could have any of the fairy tales as your subject and have the princess save the prince.

The Twisted Challenge Team and our Guest Designer Disha Jain are here with some stunning inspirations for you.


Here are the inspirations for this Challenge:
 Our TTC#3 winner Disha Jain has a beautiful card with a beautiful message -Daughters are the angels sent by the God in all of our lives.

Dr. Neha Sanwalka has tried to break the myth of waiting for a fairy tale to shape your life.




 Tejal Mehta-Shah has brought a fun filled twist to the conventional thought of a Princess Charming and given it a modern angle.


Saumya Mohanty has tried to vocalise the topic of 'Beauty' and 'Princess' equals to 'Fair Skin' and by portraying the existing Fairy Tales princess in all skin tones she intends to break that myth/false belief.
