Anne Ryan · 06-18-2009

Bev, when I saw Julia's card, I just had to come and see what this DDC is all about. Wow, your sketch is wonderful and what a great idea to print the card to use the curved edge as a template. I just may have to come back to this!

artystamper · 06-22-2009

Hi Everyone! I'm the Hostess with the Mostest this week for the Doubledog Dare Challenge - and this week my challenge is to use the cute Free Digi Image - Whimsie the Turtle - that Melyssa is offering on her blog here.

She has the link for the download of the image on her side bar there.

Remember to use DDC in the keywords when you load your card in your SCS gallery so we can all come to see them!

Can't wait to see what you make with this fun turtle image!!

hugs,
Julia

DandI93 · 06-23-2009

Thanks Julia, What a cute turtle, and free to boot, WOW. Here's mine, A Little Blue

sleepyinseattle · 07-07-2009

Today's Doubledog Dare Challenge is to make a summery card. Flowers, beaches, tropics, whatever you like. I had originally thought of using the colors of blue, orange and yellow for this, but today's color challenge (Baja, Turquoise, Apricot, Caramel) would look aweome for this theme too. Whichever you would prefer would be fine. No rules, only fun!
we would love for you to join us, just add DDC to your keywords so we can find your sunny creation! Enjoy!

jdmommy · 07-14-2009

Fran (Francie G.) is this week's hostess. She challenged us to make a wedding card. please feel free to join us. Put DDC in your keyword so we can find it in the gallery!

artystamper · 07-22-2009

Recently, I came across another SCSers card that reminded me of the old children's show I loved when I was growing up called Romper Room. Are you all familiar with it? Remember how Miss Nancy would look through her "magic mirror" and recite at the end of the show:

"Romper, bomper, stomper boo. Tell me, tell me, tell me, do. Magic mirror, tell me today. Have all my friends had fun at play?" And then she would start reciting names, like "I see Billy and Susie and Linda and, oh, there's Annie, too...."

Further, do you remember Mr. Do Bee (the bumblebee), who taught the children lessons on how to be good boys and girls?

This week I challenge you to make a Mr. Do Bee card (using a bee somewhere on your card, of course) teaching a young child one or more good manners. I did a quick search on some topics to get you started but you can look further:

* Be nice to people.
* Say “Please” when you ask for something.
* Say “Thank You” when you are given something.
* Say “You’re Welcome” when someone thanks you.
* Greet people when you see them.
* Look people in the eyes when you talk to them.
* Talk politely during meals (even in the cafeteria).
* Don’t interrupt when other people are talking.
* Share with others.
* Help people.
* Let guests go first.
* Be on time, especially if you are meeting someone
* Don't talk with your mouth full.
* No elbows on the table.

Have fun!

The DDC challenge this week is to create a card...

1.) The main image should include something edible.

AND,

2.) The inks and solid colored CS (not DP) colors MUST ALL be named after edible items!!!

So, for example, you can use Elegant Eggplant for purple, but you can't use Orchid Opulance. OR you can use Berry Sorbet (PTI) but you can't use Pixie Pink. This may be harder if you use Copics! (They tend to be more botanical/nature inspired!)

The exceptions:
Black and White inks and CS are OK but all the other colors need to be edible.
Embellishments of any colors are ok unless you make them out of CS (i.e., punches); then you have to go by the "edible" requirement.

Of course this is totally on the honor system as we can't really tell if you used Basic Brown instead of Chocolate Chip LOL!!!

Please join in and use DDC in your keyword when you upload!! We'd love to have you play along!!

Happy Stamping Week!
Anne

Anne, you clever girl! I cheated ever so slightly with my main image but I was determined to use my new Greenhouse set. For the edible item I used the wheat sprig, yes it's very crunchy but high in fiber

Colors were Celery, Apricot, Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie.

This week the DDC is to make a card of your own choosing.....any theme, color, size, shape, embellishments.........BUT.........it must incorporate an out-of-the-box element. Some part of the image must extend beyond the margin or panel. Here are some examples:

sleepyinseattle · 09-01-2009

It's Tuesday and time for another Doubledog Dare!
School resumed for us yesterday (big sad face here, I miss my buddy already). So in honor of back to school, let us make a fall card and it has to have an apple or apples somewhere on it. It doesn't necessarily have to be for teacher, just autumnal.
Have fun with it!

beestamper · 09-08-2009

This week's Challenge is from Fran G.

This weeks DDC will be to use buttons on your card or project! I have lots of buttons but never think to use them!

Other than that anything goes!

Have fun!

Hugs,

Fran

LilLuvsStampin · 09-15-2009

Do you love using various techniques in your card creations? I do, and sometimes I forget to use some of those I learned a long time ago....such as CRAYON RESIST!!! So, my challenge to all of you today is to create a card or project incorporating crayon resist.

Here's a link from the SCS resources on how to do this technique.

Be sure to use DDC in your keywords so we can all see your creations! I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with. There is no time limit.

Itsapassion · 09-22-2009

Hi Everyone!!

Your DoubleDog Challenge for this week is to use a punch or punches in a "negative" way!!

For example, you can punch a bunch of leaves out of a cardstock panel and use the left over piece with all the leaf-holes in it to make a really great background panel layer!

Be sure to use PUNCHES for this challenge!! Some of those obscure, rarely used punches can be put to good use!!

Be sure to upload using "DDC" as your keyword!! Have fun all!!

Hugs,
Anne
