Word UP!
Wednesday, October 8th, 2008
Hey Everyone! Its Heather (Haynay) here welcoming you to the first Word Up! Challenge! Our “Words for Wednesday” blog posts have morphed into the “Word Up!” challenge. I am not one to worry about journaling on the page, or even a title, but I do know how much words bring to a page! I wanted something a bit different since I am not a very good journalist. I have come up with something fun, something I can remember doing in Elementary school-and that I remember teaching also! I have decided on an Acrostic Poem!!! Yeah! How fun is this. Pick any theme for your LO that you want. But, I want a one to two word title. From that title, you will write a poem (or you can journal). Each line of the poem needs to start with the next letter of your title! The challenge is located here in the forum. Here is my example!
I used: Sya’s Blueprint: Revised Set 1 from October Grab bag; Andilynn Designs: Felt Flowers and Autumn Sojourn; GG Digital Designs: Felt Stitched Alpha
Now, here are a couple of examples from the great girls on SM’s CT!
Andrea used: Leave the World Behind, Fairchild splat, Used and Abused PP, date strip and clips (Britt), Dog Ate My Alpha (Erica)
Cyndi’s son wrote this acrostic. She used Sya’s Dynamic Duo template; Witchy Woman, Used & Abused paper, It’s Christmas Time in the City, Boys of Summer (Britt); Inky Brushes (Happy); Fancy Pants (Haynay); guitar is a public domain clip art which I turned into a brush.
And Christine did this girly one using Erica’s Magical Escape, Britt’s Used and Abused paper & stitches
I cannot wait to see what everyone comes up with! Now–go and create!
