DCMD Contest: Give Them What They Want!!! 

This Canadian Snowflake has flown south and melting away on the beaches of Florida!  A fully functioning studio will still be a few months away, so in the mean time I'll be flooding the sketchbook with new designs and ideas.  Here is where the competition begins!

Give Them What They Want!!:  If you could add a piece of jewellery to the DCMD Collection what the theme be?!  The winner will not only receive a jewellery prize, but also see their winning submission fully realized as a wearable piece of jewellery - and have it named after them!  Here are the competition rules:

  • What inspires you?  Tell me your story or idea.  Are you inspired by a motif, a colour, a story, a literary work, a song, a concept?  Do tell!!!  Be as descriptive or simple as you like.
  • Post your comment to this Blog!  Only comments posted to the Blog will be accepted.
  • Only 1 entry per person please. 

Timeline:  Probably a couple of weeks or so.  :)  A more solid date will be posted when the deadline gets close.

Competitions & Code & Blogging! Oh My!

I got myself a Blog!  I never thought I'd be a blogger - but here I am.  My thought processes don't often expand beyond the character limitation of Facebook status updates.  I don't tweeet - I'm waiting for the next version called 'Roar'. 

Welcome to the new website!  I'm pretty happy with the outcome and rather enjoyed the hours upon hours I spent noodling around with code and margins.  If you have any feedback at all I'd love to hear it.  Yes even the feedback where you tell me my web building skills are newbish and you provide me with a fabulous suggestion to help improve the look of the site.

I smell a DCMD competition brewing.  You might be wondering what that smells like.  Perhaps like that fellow who rides the horse in the Old Spice commercials, or those DQ bubbles filled with Kittens.  I'm not sure.  Usually the competitions are facebook related, but I'm going to give the new site a work out and host it here.  So stay tuned!
