Digi Dare #167

Written by Amanda on February 12th, 2010

Happy Friday everyone!! It’s Amanda here bringing you this week’s Digi Dare! But before I get to that, I’m so excited to announce last week’s winners!!

Here’s my pick for last week’s dare…

“ME” by Brie

Everything about this layout blew me away. The title-work and how it was “cut out”, the arrow pointing to the fabulous girl figure, the pop of color that the pink and blue add and bring your eye straight to the focal point. But the journaling is what got me the most. Besides being INCREDIBLY well-written, I relate to it soooo much. AMAZING job on this, Brie!

My random pick winner is Melissa with her layout “Act”

Please email us at digidares at gmail dot com to claim your prize!

Our sponsor this week is the amazingly talented Brynn Marie Dukes!

Just wait until you see all of the fabulous designs that Brynn has in her shop at Funky Playground!!

Now it’s time for this week’s challenge!

Totally Emotional

It’s the week of Valentine’s Day, a day about love, romance, and emotion. But as we all know, it’s not always rainbows and butterflies, is it? So to spare us the normal “what does love mean to you” challenge… let’s focus on emotion in and of itself. The word emotion is defined as: a mental state that arises spontaneously rather than through conscious effort and is often accompanied by physiological changes.

So give me a list of at least 5 emotions you’ve recently experienced or seen someone you love recently experience. 5 emotions you or someone you know has felt today, this week… this year? Reiterate those emotions with journaling if you like, but it’s not required, as long as the feelings are shown on your layout.

Dare Flairs:
- Your layout must contain at least 5 “emotion” words. (may include word art).
- Photos are not required, but if you choose to use them, personal and/or stock photos are allowed.
- Make the color RED stand out on your layout in some way. Whether it is the main color, or a pop of red on an otherwise monochromatic layout.
- Use at least one symbol of Valentine’s Day on your layout somewhere. (a heart, an arrow, a valentine card, love birds, angel/cupid wings, etc.)

Here is some inspiration from the Dare Team…

    This is an awesome, awesome challenge… Sometimes, we really just need to scrap the bad stuff too… Everything’s not always perfect, and I think this is such a great idea!!! Thank you!!! ;)

    Wow! Guess I needed some therapy time. It’s a LOT of journaling but I realized I had not really created a LO of this particular day that really expressed the emotions I went through. Here’s mine.
