And the LUCKY DOODLER is...

Wednesday, June 18, 2008

First off, we would like to apologize for the rather unexpected delay. It turns out, you all made it very difficult for Adrienne to choose! But well, the long wait is over and the layout winner for our challenge "oodles of doodles" is no other than:

by HONEY AMABELLE YOUNG
Dipolog City, Zamboanga del Norte

And you must be wondering what Adrienne has to say?


Oh wow!! Could you have sent me a harder list to choose from??? geez they are ALL so beautiful it was SUPER difficult to pick!!! But after much time gawking at them :) I think I've chose my favorite! I really liked how the layout titled "Kooky" used the formula from the book. the creator of that layout really went wild with the concept...doodling on everything from the paper to the embellishments themselves and I LOVED all the fillers she incorporated in it! They are all really lovely and it's hard to choose but "kooky" really brought it to another level :D
Congratulations HONEY! Since you already have a copy of the Doodle Formula book, we'll ship you your prizes of not one, but TWO DONNA DOWNEY's LATEST BOOKS asap!!!

Special thanks to Adrienne for being gracious and accepted our invitation to judge this difficult challenge despite her very busy schedule. Thanks so much and good luck in all your endeavors, Adrienne!

Last but definitely not the least, warm hugs to everyone who also submitted and joined this challenge! We are forever grateful for the support and love! :-)

We'll unveil another challenge soon, ladies so come by anytime! :-)
