MAY DAY!

May is just around the corner and we thought what better way to celebrate but, to do a challenge for May Day.  In England,  May Day is celebrated on the first day of the month to bring in the warmer weather and it also is when the trees and flowers start to blossom.  Traditional activites include Morris dancing, crowning of a May Queen and dancing around the May Pole.  So, Happy May Day!!! 

Who better to Sponsor this challenge except Stamping Dragon Designs .

This store has a something for everyone.  Not only are there a family of dragons who are always up to something but, there are  fairies to transportation and lots of other things inbetween.  Please stop by the store and take a look yourself.  You can find the store link here .  Also, please don't forget to sign up for the monthly newsletter.  If you would like to know all the specials going on in the store or what is the theme for the next monthly grab bag please sign up for it here if you haven't done so                                                  

The challenge this week is for everyone to help us celebrate May Day. We would like to see your creations using flowers, a May Day Image, or both. The winner of this challenge will receive 4 images, winners choice, from our store. Our very talented Design Team used three images from our store, Stamping Dragon Designs .

Here are their creations to give you some inspirations.

The man ....

I wielded a mean crayon in my early days growing up in the Bronx, but made the quantum leap to the Mac at my first art studio job in 1990, and have been working as a digital artist ever since. My previous work experience includes seven years in consumer and pharmaceutical ad agencies as a photo retoucher and Mac production artist, a season at MTV Animation, and many, many freelance illustration and Flash animation jobs. These days when I'm not beating the hell out of my bass with the rest of the hooligans in my bands Almost Famous and Air Dogs, I'm hard at work here at my home art studio in Pearl River, NY.

In addition to the digi stamps and forthcoming downloadable content available here at KennyKdownloads.com, much of my other existing work is available for personal and commercial licensing; check out the Licensing section at KennyK.com for more info on my existing properties - and feel free to browse the rest of the site, where tons of my illustration and animation work are on display! PSPers, taggers and digital graphics hobbyists, please see CILM's website for Terms Of Use (TOU) and info on available Kenny K tubes and tube packages.

My name is Elena (a.k.a "Elena K" or "Lady K") and I am the feminine touch of KennyKdownloads.com. I have been producing events and party planning for over 6 years in NYC and am a crafter at heart - I love anything creative, both handmade and digitally produced. I even ventured into business for myself starting a homemade basket company back in 2000; I eventually realized it was the creation that I loved, not the business side. My next leap of faith was to put my natural creative talents to use in the corporate world. Nothing like planning big events in New York on a big budget! Loving it ever since.

Kenny and I have been looking forward to collaborating on a project together since we got married, and we are finally moving on it now with KennyKdownloads.com! While Kenny continually cranks away producing his amazing art, I'll be here on the site to keep things running smoothly, as Kenny bin when time allows.

Thanks for stopping by - we look forward to offering lots more great stuff in the weeks and months to come, so please check back often. Happy crafting!!

FROM THE HOME!

Moving right along with things to do during the Spring we decided to do a challenge based on Spring Cleaning.  What better way to start but, to use something from your home on your project.  It could be anything from make up to tools in the house.  Let's see how creative you can get and show us your creations.  Make sure you note in your blog post what special household item you used to be eligible to win a $10 voucher to Aspire To Thrive Shop from our Sponsor INCY WINCY DESIGNS

Aspire To Thrive Children's Charities (was Incy Wincy Children's Charities - hence the challenge blog name) was started by a group of dart friends here in Elizabeth and Salisbury ,South Australia - who wanted to give something back to the community. A group of us have continued to do through out the last 2 years and we have been shown the amount of difficulty our society has towards children with special needs. There are a lot of charities out there who help children with terminal illnesses so we thought we could aim more towards learning and behavioural difficulties.

We are in talks now with a local kindergarten to see what we can do to help them. This would be a wonderful project and I hope with all my heart this goes ahead.

We have found an official home base now and are going from strength to strength.

ALL our work is voluntary and we get no ongoing assistance from anyone. We have gotten a few tiny grants to help with uniforms and equipment, for which we are grateful.

Our shop at www.aspiretothrive.com.au are donated drawings and ALL money (minus paypal costs) go directly into the charity.

We are grateful for any sales, help or donations (cards etc for our stalls)

Any questions please feel free to contact us

Thank you

HeatherBeth

Our Design Team used images for this great store and had a blast.  Here are their creations to give you some ideas on what you can use............

                                                        Tammy :  Tammy used black thread

Kate :  Kate used my Virgin Vie eye makeup instead

of distress ink and a cotton pad instead of a sponge

Anne :  Anne used old eye makeup instead of

 chalks for background (blue and brown)

                                                           Nataliya :  Nataliya used her husband's

                                                              shaving gel for background paper

                                                          Molly :  Molly used her husband's

                                                                         hair gel as glue

Beth :  Beth used light cherry blossom and clear nail

polish and cut a piece of gauze bandage for a ribbon (colored it

brown with a copic marker)

                                                   Carolynne :  Carolynne used eyeshadow for

                                                 bricks and cut up box for frame and sentiment

Janette :  Janette used a paper bun case that she inked

and glittered. She also used old eyeshadow on the Piano and the

 edges of the die cut.

There you have it.  Some great ideas to get your creative juices going.  So, lets see what you all come up with and remember to add in your blog post what you used from home!!!  We can't wait to see what you come up with.
