A brief description of your doodles/process
Thank you!
Inspired by Adrienne Looman's new book, "The Doodle Formula" , our challenge this time reaches a whole new level! Here is your chance to create a doodled layout, a one-of-a-kind, ultra personalized and inimitable page that will beat the big designer names in the scrapbooking industry. Let your very personality scream in the pages! AMAZE US
SURPRISE US
ALLOW US A GLIMPSE OF YOUR CREATIVE SPIRIT!
The doodles should be executed using pens, pencils, markers, watercolor or paint. It should be a 12x12 page.
Be as creative as you can be. Your LO will be judged based on The Formula, which include: (btw, if you have The Doodle Formula and you have done Adrienne's step-by step workshop, you already know what we're talking about :D
A. Your Use of Shapes
Shapes may be inspired by an embellishment, a chipboard, a photograph, a patterned paper, or anything you see around you that inspired you to make the LO.
We borrowed 3 of Adrienne's LO's - take a look at the shapes used here:
B. Impression of Depth
When you have created dimension in your otherwise flat page is another element that must be present in your page. So go ahead, doodle those shadows :-)
Here's a sample to give you an idea:
C. Your Use of "Fillers" Fillers are the finishing touches. You utilize them to cap off the creation of a page. You may use dots, circles, or any other shape imaginable that can fill up those empty spaces. For example, take a look at the fillers in this layout.
And guess what, Adrienne Looman herself will be picking the best layout (thanks, Adrienne)!
"Lets see....I'll bet you want to know a little more about me right? hehe. Well, I am 25 and I'm a total dork (I really am! you'll see lol). No kids...but I *do* have a little chihauha puppy named Bruiser (mass destroyer!). Not married either--it's ok too because I can do plenty of scrapbooking lol. Speaking of it, I've been scrapbooking for 10 years and consider it a passion more than just a hobby. Although my style in scrapbooking has drastically changed within the last year or so, you can find some of my older styles in the 2003/2004 Chatterbox idea book, and in an upcoming 2005/2006 Chatterbox idea book. I have also been published in a few issues of the following magazines: Paper Trends, Scrapbook Trends, Scrapbook Answers, Idees De Scrap. In addition I have contributed several projects to other idea books and have a few to be announced at a later date this year. I've been blessed to have the opportunity to design for several companies including: Scrappers Bliss, Scrapologie, Queen and Co, and the two that I am currently: Urban Lily and Scrap in Style TV. Oh and I've also been a guest designer for a couple places too!--Scrap Magie being one of them--thats totally fun! In June of 2006 I launched my own line of products which include handmade buttons and progressing to digital kits and foam embellishments....it has been rather successful (I am blessed). Every day I end up wondering what I did to deserve such great things in my path...I don't get answers but all I can do is soak everything up and enjoy life right now....in this very moment. Thank you for taking the time to read more about me! "
