Doodle Competition

July 23rd, 2009 2 comments

Three of my designs were accepted into the “Social Designers” Doodle Competition.  Which I am very excited about.  Now I need your support. Voting closes on July 29th, so we have just over 5 days to get your votes in.  How do you do that I might ask.

First log on to the Social Designer website (if the link does not work, cut and paste the following into your browser):

http://socialdesigner.com/competitions/one-liner-a-doodle-competition/votes

Once you get there then scroll through the site till you see my designs (unfortunately, they randomly assign the pages and they change every time, so I can’t tell exactly which page I am on.  These are my 3 designs, that you need to look for:

paisley sq

“All in a Square”

Nelson Mandela

“One man, One vision, One Doodle”

scan0003

“one line many lines”

Once you locate my drawings, you vote by clicking on the red heart which says “fave this”

It is going to ask you to register in order to vote, just fill out the few bits of info on the right side, where it says “Sign up now and make the good greater” and Voila, you have voted.

Then go back and “Fave” my other designs and you are done.  (just make sure you don’t un-fave them)  You will know they are voted upon, because they get a red square around them

Then we hold thumbs until August 3rd.

Thanks for you support.

Day 24 – Paisley in the mix

July 23rd, 2009 No comments

Another Thursday rolls around, so in addition to our Paisley spread, I will throw in 2 more so our Three for Thursday special lives on.  I hope you are all enjoying this as much as I am.   First off this was one of my very first paisley designs,  I needed something as a background for a series of greeting cards and I wanted the paisley look and feel.  It took many attempts to get the layout just right and the dimensions perfect, but the outcome was just fine.

So I took the same Paisley piece and with a little twist & turns came up with a brand new sheet that we have used in all our scrapbooking cutouts.  I have this is a multitude of colors.  If you want to see what we have done with paisley take a peek at the Tjomies Web Site.  Lisa has been a wiz with coming up with unique ways to use paisley

Here’s the same design in a different color and used as the background for one of our gift tags, which you can get to see at the Tjomies website.
