This weeks challenge at Doodle Palace...

Last week we all had SO much fun with Jenn's summer/beach challenge! Random.org chose #4, Tracy NZ! Yay Tracy!!! So glad to see a retired Doodle Palace Princess! You win 2 Free images of your choice and YOU are next week's Guest Designer!! Kathrin aka Kruemel was chosen as our Featured Artist. Yay! You also win 2 Free images! Check out Kathrin's blog! Really nice card!

This weeks Guest Designer is Deena. See below for more info on Deena!

This week, Deena chose a GREAT Challenge idea. She would like everyone to USE WEAVING anywhere on your project or layout. For an example, Deena used Dillan the Dragon (don't you love the polka dots!) and weaved a card out of ribbon! This is such a unique idea, Don't ya think?!!?!?!

Hope you all have fun with this one...it is sure to be a challenge!

And now more about Deena.....

What is your favorite craft medium? ink

What is your favorite scrap item/tool? my nestabilities and copic markers

What is your favorite paper line/company? chatterbox

What is your favorite color(s)? reds or brown/pink combo
How do you have your scraproom decorated? Colors, themes, homey, contempo, etc. It is a perpetual disaster. I clean it up and mess it up and clean it up...my husband put up some really nice shelving in the closet and I have a huge 4' by 6' storage cabinet by Best Organizers that he got me for Valentine's day too...but it is still a disaster!

Are you an animal person? Not really.

Do they have a place in your scraproom? Absolutely not...no fur and teeth around my stuff...that goes for my girls and husband too.

What is your favorite Disney movie? Mary Poppins. Do you watch TV/Movies while working? Nope...wish I had a TV in the craft room, but then I would never come out!

Do you get your inspiration from them? Not usually.

Sweet or Savory snacks? Savory for sure.

Scary or Romantic movies? Romantic Comedies...but truly I think I like the drama/action movies best...not gory or vampirish ones though...those freak me out.

Beach or Snow vacations? Beach...we have snow 6 months of the year...would do anything to get out of it once it gets here.

Favorite type of music? Pop, I guess.>
