Flipping Coins at Scribbles Designs

My card today is created with a Scribbles digi called #417 Dog Bone. I have a box of craft supplies that have not yet been organized,and have been pulling out images,papers and embellishments from it and creating cards all week. I was tired of coloring realistic looking animals, so I started coloring dogs and cats crazy colors, like teal and even rainbow. But I found everything I needed for my project here, even the envelope, even though it was a real challenge this month to create a card from the box. That's because Scribbles Designs Challenge Blog has a fresh, entertaining theme for crafters,
Do you have a coin? Don't worry, you can keep it! You will need it to play along by flipping it FIVE times to discover how you will create your project this month for Scribbles. Talk about improvisation!!

Are you ready? Every time you flip the coin, it should land either heads or tails. The chart below has FIVE rows, with both a HEADS and a TAILS column. Your first flip reveals which column you will use in the first row. For example, I rolled TAILS, so I "created a card/project with at least 3 layers. Flip again and find out if you need  to (HEADS) make a rectangle or square card/project or (TAILS) make a shaped card/project. Keep flipping and you have the "recipe" for your project. I highlighted my flips for the card I made:

FLIP	HEADS	TAILS
1	Make a Clean & Simple card/project	Create a card/project with at least 3 layers
2	Make a rectangular or square card/project	Make a shaped card/project
3	Follow a tutorial	Add gemstones
4	Use glitter	Add ribbon or twine
5	Use something from your stash	Add a recycled or up-cycled item

Challenges I am Entering:

Happiness Has Four Legs on the Path of Positivity

Welcome to another challenge at the Path of Positivity, where it's always Anything Goes with an Optional Twist. This month the Twist is Happiness. Make someone happy by creating something for them, then link it up to the main challenge blog.
I created this card using an image and a paper from one of the guest sponsors, Scribbles Designs

The digi image is called #F31 Dog Bone, and the digi paper is called SDD Woof 1 Patterned Paper. I printed my sentiment in Tall Marker font, adding the 2 dog bones before cutting and printing it twice. I printed out the digi paper as well as a cute digital wood frame from Pixel Scrapper Sheila Reid. Putting it together was like building a Jenga tower, starting with the background paper, the frame, the sentiment, then adding dimensional tape and adding another layer of sentiment and frame. I embellished simply with some square-shaped jewels in the corners of my frame and my card is finished.

At the Path of Positivity challenge blog, all projects are required to be positive in nature. Anything encouraging, affirmative or inspiring qualifies for prizes from Scribbles Designs and the second guest sponsor, Limited Runs.

   

It's the Year of the Dog at Scribbles Designs Challenge Blog

I love to journal - using words, pictures, photos, items cut from magazines, and sometimes digital images. Today I used digi images from Scribbles Designs called  #417 Dog Bone and Dog Cookie (a freebie) to create my animal rights page. 

My daughter and I rescued a Silkie Terrier almost three years ago, and we feel strongly about rescuing shelter dogs. At first my page was going to reflect my love for Wilson, our rescue pup, but people should be stewards to all living things. 

Anyway, once in a while, a digi image will inspire me to create a page for my journal. I colored him in blue just so he could stand out on my page. My journal is almost complete. l started it three years ago, altering a composition book into a kind of "my life story" look into my thoughts and emotions and challenges and triumphs.

Do you journal? I have a couple journals in which I write mostly, although I will take out my colored pencils and illustrate a few pages. Then I have my vacation journal, a couple art journals and my water colors journal. Oh, and of course, I have my "book of lists" which is a journal whose pages are comprised of lists (I love making lists).

Whatever you create, have fun with it, and don't forget to link up your project or card with Scribbles Designs Challenge Blog, where the optional challenge theme through the 14th of the month is the Year of the Dog. See you there!
