Harry's cute little toes peeping over the edge of his car seat.
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 2When the ink is dry, scribble around the shapes with a pencil crayon. Add circles.lines. arrows, flowers, anything you like, in the spaces.
STEP 3Start 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 4Use 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.

OMG now i KNOW You are crazy, i expected a challenge i would be able to do to!!! - it may take me the week just to do the ink part!!
its easy for you because you have talent, unfortunatly for me the best doodling i do is some stars when im sitting in a meeting bored!! :O
stars is a good place to start, that could be the basis of your pp design and then LO. Honestly there is no right or wrong:) And you have way more talent than you allow yourself to take credit for:)
Picasso I ain't but it looks so darned good I will have to give it a try. Great instructions hunX
Enjoy your break.
aw bless, baby toes are so cute!
wow, love your doodling!

Your double has got to be the cutest and your doodling is cool. I might even have to give it a go all my doodles tend to be of grapes though - no idea why!?!
