Pile It On #148 - Pets and/or Favorite Way to Color

Our November challenge for you is Pets (any creature that can reasonably kept as a pet in a regular home). Since it's the 3rd Sunday of the month, it's time for our monthly optional bonus theme: d/or Favorite Way to Color an Image. You can choose one or both themes, and you may enter the challenge as many times you like, as long as you are inspired by at least one other Challenge theme.

Our October Challenge winners have been announced here.

We're sponsored by Dr. Digi's House of Stamps and one lucky participant will win 2 digi stamps from their store. The prize winner and Sweet Sprinkles will be announced on December 9th.

Welcome to the brilliantly bizarre brain of Dr. Digi's House of Stamps. Here you will find monsters, aliens, odd balls and Dundertons as well as many many more wonderful digital stamps. Our artist and founder cut his teeth in the craft world at the company "Just Inklined", where his unique digis made a huge impression. We're hoping to continue to entertain and amuse, with our growing catalogue of great value digis with a sense of humour.

And here's some inspiration from our Design Team to get you going!
