Hey folks! Welcome back
to the Path of
Positivity Challenge Blog! It is the third Monday of the month and that means that it is time to present the midway for
Challenge #101. It is my fond hope that each of you and your own
families
continue to stay
well wherever it is you live in this big wide world of ours.
As we are a
unique kind of challenge blog, it is important for you to
understand how things work. Please be sure to check out the
START POST FOUND HERE
for the specific details related to this month's challenge, and you can
find out all the general details you need to know in order to
participate, by clicking on the '
Challenge Details'
tab (located at the top of the blog). For your convenience, a
summary of the most important rules can now be found in the right
sidebar under the heading '
General Rules'.
Right now, it is time to continue with our midway. Here is a refresher of the details for our current twist:
Challenge #101
Anything Goes POSITIVE with the Opt. Twist of
Celebrate Something Special about
YOUR FRIENDS
This year's goal is to celebrate the positive around us. As such, if you would like to participate in the optional twist this month, we want you to design a creation
that focuses on Celebrating Something Special about YOUR FRIENDS.
What
would we do without friends in our lives?! A shoulder to cry on, an ear
to listen to you when you need to decompress, someone to giggle with
just because, a comrade that understands you through and through! People
come and go in our lives but a true friend will be with you forever.
When you come across one of these special people, be very thankful as
you've been blessed indeed!!!
If
you want to follow the optional twist this month, think of all the
friends that you have who would love to receive a card [or some other
type of project from you] letting them know just how much your
relationship with them means to you. While last month focused on the
four legged companions in your life, this month, it is
time to pay homage to the two legged ones who've stuck by you through
thick and thin throughout the years. It is time to show the world Something Special about YOUR FRIENDS in your effort to celebrate the Positivity that already exists in your life.
Remember,
the twist is completely optional and you don't need to follow it in
order to win. However, in order to be considered eligible for this
month's goodies, remember that general types of projects/posts will not
qualify for the honours and prize UNLESS they are also positive, inspirational,
motivational or encouraging in some nature. Additionally, even if a project may qualify as positive, if your post
promotes negativity, hatred or anything of an abhorrent nature, your
project will be disqualified. Honours and Prize include:
- $6 worth of images from Scribbles Designs, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all qualifying entrants.
- A badge for the following honours: Top Pick, Voter's Choice, Most Inspirational, Random Winner, DT Delight.

Thanks again to my fabulous design team! As always, each of them have
their own exceptional approaches and concepts which impress me to no end. Each of
these creations has demonstrated the theme of
Celebrating Something Special about FRIENDS admirably,
and I hope we have encouraged you throughout this challenge to come up
with your own piece of handiwork. Be sure to go and visit these talented
ladies so you can see just how their
projects tie in to the twist.

FRIENDS in your life? If you'd like to share how you have personally been affected by a special friendship, we'd love to hear it.
