Happy New Year! Welcome to Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges!
My name is Cat and Paper Dragonfly is my new monthly challenge blog with a new challenge posted on the first Friday of every month. There are no rules as to what you may create - paper crafts, mixed media, use rubber or digis, sweet and cute, creepy cute, quirky, vintage, dark - whatever makes your creativity fly is welcome! Not every challenge will involve dragonflies but it will be fun to see them sneak in regardless.
Today begins Challenge #1 and the theme is Winter Dragonfly!
Enter your Winter themed projects that feature Dragonflies in some way in the Inlinkz link-up below by January 28th following the challenge rules.
I've also got a call out for Paper Dragonfly's first Creative Design Team and Guest DT, have a read of the
DT requirements to see if you'd like to be a Paper Dragonfly CDT!
Our challenges are monthly and start on the 1st Friday of each month.
Each challenge will have a different theme - FYI not all challenges are dragonfly themed, some will but most won’t!
ANYTHING FLIES aka anything goes
Anything Flies Challenges are our fun take on Anything Goes which means you make anything you want.
DRAGONFLY CHALLENGE TWIST
Starting with the Feb Challenge regardless of the current theme the Challenge will also have the optional Dragonfly Challenge Twist which is to include a dragonfly in some clever way! The challenge entry that includes a dragonfly in the most unique way will win the “Dragonfly Award” badge.
WINNERS and PRIZES
Until Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges are established with 5+ players, not 5 entries by one player, the challenges will be "just for fun" and then we'll have sponsored prizes so tell your friends to come and play!
The main Prize winner and Top 3 winners will win badges and be invited to guest DT for the next challenge.
Sponsored Challenges - the main Prize winner will win the sponsored prize when offered.
SPONSORS
