This week's darer is Jo and your challenge is to make a card along any theme, colour, shape, size, etc.
but it must incorporate....
Doodling!
----------------------
Every year at my daughter's art class - they are asked to make seasonal greeting cards .
( paint , draw etc )
The art teacher, Mrs Yong , is also a designer for some greeting card companies in the UK & Australia.
& she sure has some original designs for them every year!
Below are 2 cards drawn by my 11 year old daughter , Deborah
at the last art class for the year.
Their theme this year is Christmas with a humourous twist.
cards were mounted on DCWV cardstock -
couldn't resist adding some peel offs to the 1st one
( got them from the UK ! )
satin ribbon added to the 2nd.
my own first tentative attempt ,inspired by the Design Team !
( learnt a load overnight ! from each & every one's cards )
Heidi Swapp chipboard letters , BG papers
It's nice to try out this doodling idea that we so often see in layouts these days -
doodling on everything & everywhere !

Your daughter must have had fun doing those drawings - I think they capture the mischief in mythical Santa really well. Love your Joy card - this is the real spirit of Christmas for me. What a lovely idea ot start with three circles and put the letters on them - must try that one!
Fantastic card, I love the simple and classy, clean lines of it. Modern and fresh. And I am loving monograms at the moment. Your daughter is a very talented artist
Love your daughters Santa drawings, theyre just fab, and your doodled monogram letters are gorgeous, so stylishly simple, love it! Rhi x
The crafty talent is obviously in the family... Great cards (by both)
Thank you everyone for your very kind comments. Deborah is very encouraged ! & yeah will certainly continue doodling too ! that's why I bought the white Chipboard letters - easy to alter & change the colours etc.
xo, Pearl
Wow Pearly - you and your daughter make a fab team - what fantastic cards - thanks so much for joining in again :-)
