Challenge #72: A Year in Review

Challenge #72

A Year in Review

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Scribbles Designs Challenge blog. Whether you are new or one of our regulars, we are so thankful that you are here with us on our little spot in blogland. It is the 15th of the month and that means it is time for our very last challenge of 2018 to get started! It has been another wonderful year here at Scribbles Designs. Thanks so much to everyone who has been able to to join any of our challenges and other events throughout the year. We hope that you will be able to take part in this final challenge of the year, and of course, continue to join us in 2019.

Our theme for this challenge is A Year in Review and here is what you need to know to join us...

As we say goodbye to 2018 and usher in 2019, it is time to reflect on the past year. As in any year, you will undoubtedly have had good times and bad ones too. I truly hope that the good times have far outweighed any bad ones you've encountered.

This year we thought it would be fun to sit back and reflect on the challenges that we've done during 2018. Some challenges had great participation, for ex. in challenge #66 (Anything Goes) we had 32 entries and in challenge #65 (Make it Masculine) there were 31 people playing. These two challenges garnered the most participation all year. However, there were also challenges that didn't get that many players. For ex., we only had 10 people join in for challenge #63 (Bunny Hop) and a mere 5 people joined us for challenge #68 (Year of the Dog). Regardless of the number of people joining in, we at Scribbles Designs, enjoyed each of these themes. Our team members each have a favourite theme from the year and the challenge for you this month is to pick your FAVOURITE THEME from 2018 and CREATE A PROJECT BASED ON THAT THEME. Here is the list that you can choose from: 

• Birthday Party Blowout: Make a birthday themed project. Can be a card, decorations, invitations, etc. Original challenge link HERE.
• Go for Green: The majority of your project should be in various shades of greens. Original challenge link HERE.
• Bunny Hop: Use a bunny or rabbit as the main focus of your project. Original challenge link HERE. 10
• Favouring the Feminine: Make your project girly in some nature--use florals, laces, ribbons or other items suitable for a feminine card or project. Original challenge link HERE.
• Make it Masculine: Make your project masculine in some nature--use greens, blues and browns or plaids, stripes and/or other patterns often associated with a male card or project. Original challenge link HERE.
