AUGUST GUEST DESIGNER / FREEBIE CHALLENGE

While others started making snowflakes, snowmen, and cute plump men in red suits attempting to get a head start on Christmas cards, the naughty Dudettes highjacked Dude Time Doodles' resident artist and locked him in a haunted house overnight.  He swears he met Gavin Ghost up close and too personal. We didn't believed him until we saw Gavin with our very own eyes. Naturally, he's a gentle, friendly ghost and wishes to help you get a head start creating for Halloween. 

No die hard rules for this one except to challenge yourself with a FREEBIE and a chance to win a spot as our guest designer on our awesome design team.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

1. Use the freebie image here in a humorous creation of astounding creativity and ingenuity (hehehe no pressure)

2. Submit a photo of your creation via InLinkz cache 

3. And on August 16th we will announce our Guest Designer for October.

4. Spread the word - you only have one week - this will be a monthly event so be sure to come back on the 2nd Wednesday of each month and play again!

Finally, the Dudettes are counting the days until the Scavenger Crawl that takes place right here on August 24, it's going to be a hoot and you're invited!

I am going to enter Gavin in the following challenges:

Doodle Dragon Studios- Girl Power

We are going to have a fabulous time this week with our new challenge!!!  Before we get to the challenge I wanted to tell you that Dustin is changing up the Challenge rules a bit.  He is going to hold off on the Pikes Points system for a while and go back to the "Winners get an image".  The good news is you can enter as many times as you want again.  He wants to spend  time drawing more images for you instead of trying to make sure everyone has gotten their points for the store.  You want more images right?  So, lets get back to playing already!!

This weeks challenge is GIRL POWER.  Using one of Dustin's images create something a little bit girly, or a lot girly...that is up to you.

The DoodleDragon Crew has come up with some fantastic creations to give you some inspiration.  Somehow each one has used some form of pink (go figure!)

 II am going to enter this brave young lady in the following challenges:

Little Claire's- Things with Wings

Inspire Me Fridays- Anything Goes

Sew Many- Anything Goes

SFTW- Four Legs

As always thanks for stopping by, hope to see you again soon.
