Aloha Friday Challenge #2


Aloha no!!!  and welcome back to our Aloha Friday Challenges at Kitty Bee Designs. Thanks for joining us in our second challenge - And once again, just a quick introduction to Kitty Bee Designs:

Aloha, I am Ruth, the owner and creator of Kitty Bee Designs. Contrast has always been a part of my life. Kitty Bee Designs helped me express that contrast in ways I'd never imagine. An accountant by day and a 'doodle' artist by night. The love of art and drawing has always been a relentless passion of mine. With these whimsical characters, with a little dash of island flair, I am able to share these with you to enjoy and help you come up with your greatest creations. At least close to it. :). 

I am a mother of three rambunctious teens, and mother of a few kitties (my muse), a friend, a sister, a daughter, a life partner and an artist. Kitty Bee Designs always has something new. Stay tuned!


And now to our second challenge!!

Challenge #2 - Red, White, Blue

Here is some inspiration from our teeny little DT... our Design Team Call is still open and will close at the end of the month.

Just a quick note about entering our challenges...


Hi all - Happy Humpday!!

We had a couple questions come through about entering our challenges without having a blog.  I have also updated the "Rules" page with this information.

You are more than welcome to join if you do not have a blog.  You must, however, have an online gallery (Instagram, Flickr, Splitcoast Stampers, Two Peas in a Bucket, etc), and like the blog posts, link back to our blog in the notes or description of your image.  Please post to an online sharing site or your gallery, again linking to the specific entry and not your general album or entire gallery.  Please understand that if membership is required for the DT to view your entry, you will not be included in the drawing.

If you cannot link your entry using the linky, please leave a comment in the ORIGINAL post (the one with the linky) with a link to your entry.

Hope that clears things up... there are still a couple more days to enter our first challenge.  Mahalo plenty to everyone who has joined us so far and I hope you had fun playing along!!  We'll be back on Friday morning with our next challenge, hope you come back to play again!!
