Holiday challenge.

Tomorrow we are off on our holiday, and we are looking forward to it so much. Just praying that the weather stays lovely. But OMG how am I going to cope without internet access for a whole week *shudders at the thought*

I have had so many lovely comments about the doodling I do on my LOs with people saying they wish they could do it too. Well you can, it is so easy peasy lemon squeasy.

So here is a simple 4 step guide to creating the perfect pp to match your photos.

All you need to start is a sheet of card stock (I prefer textured), an ink pad, a pencil crayon, 2 different coloured pens (I used a blue ball point and a black fine liner). If you have a background/shape stamp that you like you can use that too.

STEP 1

Ink some random shapes directly onto the card. This is where you can use a stamp too.

STEP 2

When the ink is dry, scribble around the shapes with a pencil crayon. Add circles.lines. arrows, flowers, anything you like, in the spaces.

STEP 3

Start doodling lines, circles, dots and other random shapes over the ink and crayon with a pen (I used the blue ball point). Do not worry about being neat, your doodling should be spontaneous... imagine you are having a really boring phone call and are scribbling on the telephone book, don't get hung up on being 'perfect'.

STEP 4

Use the second pen (I used black) to continue doodling. Define any areas you want to show up more, and fill any spaces left. This is a good time to go over any areas you are not totally happy with.

And that's it, it really is that easy!!! So now you don't think i'm a fantastic doodler anymore... my secret is out...LOL!!!

So for the challenge... you have a whole week to get doodling. I want you to create you own pp using this technique and use it on a LO. Time for you to drag out those photos you've been wanting to scrap but haven't found the right paper for, I know you all have them!!! Be creative with your colours and have lots of fun.

Post a link to your work here and when we return I will get an impartial judge to select a doodler to receive a stash RAK.
