"Bear Minimum!"

Are you as big a fan as I am of the CAS (Clean and Simple) look as I am??  Some talented crafters (GB) are really, really great at it.  Me, not so much, but I try on occasion.

  The "Pike's Playground" challenge this time is to make a card, using a Doodle Dragon Studio image that can be a "bear", but must include a bear on the project/card.  Everyone who is familiar with Dustin's dragons knows he's an awesome "bear" creator as well!

  This is my card creation for the design team... as you can see, I am not all that good with CAS.  Please enjoy it in spite of that.

Get the estrogen running for this challenge.  Dustin and the design team want you to "Get Girlie."   Using a Doodle Dragon Studio image, complete a project with a girly theme.  Attach it to the link on Dustin's blog and receive a "free, unreleased" image. The pink is flowing on "Pike's Playground" for the next two weeks... come on, give it a try!  This is my submission as part of the DDS Design Team.

"Nuts about CFS"

Cards for Soldiers, that is... I love making cards for the men and women who protect our freedom all across this great land.  I hope some soldier sees my card and it brings a smile to their face and the face of their recipient.

"Hip to be Square"

Get your tape runners and markers warmed up for a "square" challenge at "Pike's Playground."  Dustin had the design team make some great "square" cards and projects to showcase this challenge.  The rules are simple... Make a card, or other project, using a Dustin Pike or Doodle Dragon Studio image and make it "square."  Link it up on Dustin's challenge blog and receive an unreleased image from Dustin for your efforts.  Everybody wins!

Here is my "square" card using one of Dustin's releases from his Christmas in June collection. This image and more can be found at the Doodle Dragon Studio store here.

I hope you enjoy the card and get in the challenge.

Primary Colors... it is time!

...Time to get out your media of choice and create away!  We just need you to use one of Dustin Pike's fabulous images and use "primary" colors. I hope you like my kid's spaceship birthday card. Challenge rules on Dustin's blog.
