As we are a unique kind of challenge blog, it is important for you to understand how things work. Please be sure to check out the START POST FOUND HERE for the specific details related to this month's challenge, and you can find out all the general details you need to know in order to participate, by clicking on the 'Challenge Details' tab (located at the top of the blog). For your convenience, a summary of the most important rules can now be found in the right sidebar under the heading 'General Rules'.
Right now, it is time to continue with our midway. Here is a refresher of the details for our current twist:
Challenge #117
Anything Goes POSITIVE with the Opt. Twist of
Design a Creation Inspired By
TEXTURE
This year's goal is to take a look at the things around us that can inspire us in our creative journeys. As such, if you would like to participate in the optional twist this month, we want you to Design a Creation Inspired By TEXTURE.
Texture
is the physical quality of a surface, and is determined by the size,
shape, and arrangement of its essential parts. Texture can be smooth or
rough, soft or hard, regular or irregular, and is one of the many ways
in which we perceive and understand the world around us.
As such, texture is an important aspect of design. It can be used to create visual interest and dimension to your creations and evoke emotion. By
integrating different design elements, you can create a one-of-a-kind
project. Different
textures can be combined to create unique and desirable effects. When
used thoughtfully, texture can make a design truly extraordinary.
If
you want to follow the optional twist this month, incorporate texture into your design. It is time to show the
world how TEXTURE has inspired you in your creative journey.
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.
To help inspire you further down the path of Creating Something Inspired By TEXTURE,
check out the wonderful projects my Design Team had the opportunity to
create. Clicking on each team member's name will take you to their blog
where
you can check out the details for their inspirational creations.
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 Creating Something Inspired By TEXTURE 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.
Why not join us, if you haven't entered already? Create a project and/or post that is positive, inspirational, motivational or encouraging in some nature and join our link up. How about stretching yourself by also opting to
follow the twist?! How are you affected by textures? Do you enjoy certain ones but abhor
others? Do you often try and incorporate texture into your own design
work? You can write a sentence or two in the
body of your post, write a sentence at the bottom of your post
next to the link up for this challenge, or simply leave a comment on
this post if you'd like.
Also, I know that the participants would love for you to go and pay them a visit. Remember we're creating a Path of Positivity to follow one project at a time and we'd love to see you somewhere on that route even if it is just by leaving a comment on an entry from someone who has touched you somehow with their project and/or post!
