Hi there! It’s Laura here with my very first dare! I hope you think it’s a fun one. I certainly had a great time creating my layout and I can’t wait to see what you dream up. Before we get to the Dare, I want to announce last week’s winners.
There were so many creative interpretations of what you were never going to do, but I especially loved “Never Conform” by Michelle. It’s a great idea to live by and she execute the color scheme beautifully to reinforce her ideas. Lots of pop!

The random winner is Karen, with her touching layout “No Girls”.

Thanks to everybody for participating! Don’t forget to email us at digidares @ gmail dot com to claim your prizes!
This week’s sponsor is Stacy Molter. Be sure to click on her picture to find out more about her!

And now for the Dare!
The new year is here, full of potential and possibilities. I’m always inspired by all of the opportunities and adventures I know the year will bring. I want to know what inspires you!

thanks for another inspiring challenge!
Hi! Thanks for picking my page from last week as the winner. I have emailed several times and am not getting a response. It said today was the deadline, but i have been emailing all week, so I just wanted you to know that. Thank you!
Michelle
Funny… I see Michelle comment about email you guys and that’s why I was popping in her too. I emailed (for being the random winner) and hadn’t gotten a response either. Makes me feel better seeing her comment, you girls must just not have gotten to it yet. I was beginning to think there was something wrong with my wonky email again!
Hi girls! I’m sorry you haven’t gotten a response yet – we usually try to get the prizes out within a week so tomorrow will just be a week so be looking for your prizes by tomorrow! Thanks so much for your patience
