Challenge #103

Anything Goes POSITIVE with the Opt. Twist of 

Celebrate YOUR CREATIVE SELF By Making Something Special Just For YOU

 

This year's goal is to celebrate the positive around us. As such, if you would like to participate in the optional twist this month, we want you to design a creation that focuses on Celebrating YOUR CREATIVE SELF By Making Something Special Just For YOU.

 

Often, we neglect our own needs. We think of everyone else before ourselves but it is important to take time for ourselves to rest, relax and recharge. We can only be there for others when we keep our internal batteries charged. In that same respect, it is also important to do nice things for ourselves as well. We often create crafty things for others but this month, it is time to make Something Special Just For YOU! Examples include: working on a creative journal, making a special calendar for yourself, designing a scrapbook page celebrating all things you, making an organizer, putting together a decorative box to hold special memories, etc. Whatever you decide to make, show the world that you are just as important as everyone else around you by Making Something Special Just For YOU in an effort to Celebrate YOUR CREATIVE SELF.

Remember, the twist is completely optional and you don't need to follow it in order to win. However, in order to be considered eligible for this month's goodies, remember that general types of projects/posts will not qualify for the honours and prize UNLESS they are also positive, inspirational, motivational or encouraging in some nature. Additionally, even if a project may qualify as positive, if your post promotes negativity, hatred or anything of an abhorrent nature, your project will be disqualified. Honours and Prize include:

• $6 worth of images from Scribbles Designs, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all qualifying entrants.
• A badge for the following honours: Top Pick, Voter's Choice, Most Inspirational, Random Winner, DT Delight.

Thanks again to my fabulous design team! As always, each of them have their own exceptional approaches and concepts which impress me to no end. Each of these creations has demonstrated the theme of  Celebrating THEIR CREATIVE SELF By Making Something Special Just For THEMSELVES admirably, and I hope we have encouraged you throughout this challenge to come up with your own piece of handiwork. Be sure to go and visit these talented ladies so you can see just how their projects tie in to the twist.

How about stretching yourself by also opting to follow the twist?! How often do you take the time to do something just for yourself? I'm sure you do things for others continuously but now it is time to focus on yourself. How does the project you made this month meet your own needs? If you'd like to share what it means to you, we'd love to hear it.

Also, I know that the participants would love for you to go and pay them a visit.
