Chinese New Year Challenge – What Sign Are You?


2011 is the Year Of The Rabbit…What’s your Chinese Sign?

We had such fun creating the What Now Asian Allure kit that forum discussions led to what Chinese sign we were, so as promised here is the Chinese New Year Challenge…What Sign Are You?

The challenge will run from Saturday February 5 through to midnight Friday February 25. So you have plenty of time to scrap those past and present Chinese New Year celebrations. Or, if you aren’t lucky enough to attend the celebrations just scrap anything that has an oriental theme.

Don’t forget to include your sign and to make it easier for you I have listed the years for each animal sign, see below. You might also like to take a look at two of my new store items that relate to this challenge, Gold Hanging Charms (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_23&products_id=14054) and Animal Sign Word Art (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_19_134&products_id=14053) on what each animal signifies. You don’t have to use these :)

Post you layout to the What Now Gallery. (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=6790)

Each entry will receive a surprise freebie at the end of the challenge.

We have some great Asian influence products (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&keyword=eastern+or+chinese+or+japanese+or+asian&search_in_description=1&categories_id=&inc_subcat=1&manufacturers_id=&pfrom=&pto=&dfrom=&dto=&x=20&y=7) in the store.

Erica,

I know the challenges are for recent layouts but I did a Chinese zodiac sign layout already. Let's say it's not for this challenge (to be fair) but could I just share it? If so, here it is:

So I'm an Ox!!! I have often thought this sign to be a bit of a plodder, but I know there is more to me than that :rofl:

Oxen are strong and determined (stubborn), and artistic. A leader, you are bright and cheerful. Stubborn! moi - never I say and no one will sway me from my opinion :D

My son's legal age is different from his biological age, so he could be either a snake or a dragon:
