JUST DOTS !
...is this month's theme! So, sit back, and try to think of something you have never done with dots! Dots are still very under-explored in my opinion, there are endless possiblities! Have you ever played with "cover-dots"? This is not an official term - but just imagine that you place a white dot onto a black bead. Then you add black dots - but only onto parts of the white dots - think about the shapes of white you can get! It's a whole different approach to design - there is WAY more than just poked, raised or stacked dots. I bet we could fill a whole Spotlight just on dot-designs...if we pool all of our creativity. A special invitation goes to Rhea Flores and Pam Charest - I have the feeling these two high-school gals will have lots of fun plotting dot placement!!!!

This time the winner will be PICKED by a Jury (which will consist of all the people whose tinyheads are on the left of my website !)
and the criteria for winning is CREATIVITY!!!
Oh, and what will the winner get? Well - I am going to donate the prize this time: it will be a Digital Camera! That Casio I mentioned before - it will give me a reason to try my bidding muscle on ebay!
