Matchmaker, Matchmaker, Make Me A Match!

Today I am a chubby-bubby in a thick cloth nappy! I have a feather-light bow slung across my left shoulder and my cheeks are crimson like a nappy rash! The fingers I am typing with are stumpy and fat, but surprisingly skilful at archery. Who am I???

You guessed it. I hope! Otherwise, do you even know how babies are made?! Today I played Scribble Matchmaker and had a bunch of fun. If the pay was a bit better and this stupid nappy chaffing wasn't a thing, I might actually go full-time on this cupid biz. But for now, here's your scribbles matches! You guys look good together. Real good! ♡

PS - Thanks everyone for joining in! Stay in touch on twitter, facebook or tiny letter if you're keen to join me for the next round of scribbly soulmate searching.

Burp.

Today's scribbler is Maggi Li and her pooey brain! Haha! I reckon if this blog was Lady Gaga in her many festive skins than today would be her "day off" where she doesn't wear a lick of makeup and just hangs out in bed with her dogs, farting and eating lots of cereal. Today we keep it simple! Today we rock bed-hair, with a happy little smile on our mouth! Today we eat three bowlfuls of pasta and cheese because it's the best thing ever! Two ingredients. Done. In my face. Yum. Simple. Good. Thanks. Burrrrp.

PS - When Maggie isn't burping she's art director of the amazing kids magazine OKIDO. And I heard that if you follow her on twitter she will randomly drop £2 on the ground somewhere in London and if you find it, it's all yours babe.

Scribble Matchmaker - Paati & Ana!

Lookie lookie! Our first ever Scribble Match! Yesss! Our "yin" is Paati Matsushita from Brazil (remember Paati?) and our "yang" is Spanish illustrator Ana Sebastian. These two scribblers are a pretty sweet match, if I do say so myself. Yes I like this matchmaking business! It's like choosing the PERFECT combo of ice-cream scoops for your cone and everyone is so jealous of your choice and asks for a lick. Except that this is a public ice-cream cone so you're all welcome to have a quick lick! Of the computer screen? No that's weird. Maybe lick with your eyes. You know what I mean.

PS - If you want to find your scribble soulmate too, instructions are here!

THIS SIDE UP ⬆

Today's scribbler is lovely mina-milk! I know, I know... the word "lovely" is a bit overused for describing lady-illustrators. But I think in this scenario it's really true! It's a simple matter of deduction (yes I did just watch six episodes of Elementary in a row). I mean, how non-lovely could an illustrator who draws sweet sleeping kittens really be? And oh! Look! Up there. Yes: a sleeping kitten drawn with pink pen. What kind of non-lovely person owns a pink pen? Exactly. mina-milk is lovely! CASE CLOSED, bye!

PS - If you're into animals and you're into pretty drawings than you're going to have a fun time on mina-milk's blog. That's a promise. A promise with eye-contact and a firm handshake so you know I mean it.

Scribble Matchmaker!

I thought we'd have a bit of fun today. You like fun, yes? No? No fun for you? Ohhh you had a mouthful of cheeseburger and your "yes" was muffled into a grunt and I mistook that grunt as a no? Yes? Right? Cool. Okay let's have some damn fun then! Wipe that gooey cheese off your bottom lip (or leave it there for later) and let's get started.

This collaboration is called Scribble Matchmaker! You're invited to join in! It's much less awkward than a blind date and you don't even have to put on pants or wipe the gooey cheese off your bottom lip. So, if you're keen to collaborate with a total stranger on the other side of the world (yes! fun!), here's how:

1. Print out the YIN-YANG SCRIBBLE SHEET (click the link)
2. Doodle over it in your own way! Hand-drawn only please, NOOO digital work thanks.
3. Then scan & email your handiwork to: lisacurriEEE@gmail.com before 13th June 2013! (also let me know your name and link, if you want that included)

When I have a bunch of yin-yang halves, it's matchmaking time! I'll pair your half with someone else's half, at random!  It'll be a shweet surprise to see who ends up together. Then I'll post them all up on this blog in a few weeks. The question is: are you ready to find your scribble soulmate? Are ya? Are ya?

Submissions close 13th June 2013. Then the matchmaking begins! Tell your friends!

Cosmic Nuggets!

This week's scribbler is Cosmic Nuggets! And his crew of glowing monsters who seem to have been freshly woken from a sweet sleep and are only a bit grumpy about it. I also have a conspiracy theory (yes! yes I do!) that Mr Cosmic Nuggets printed off my scribble sheet then scrunched it into a fistful and swallowed it whole. Then he waited (for one hour, two days, I can't be sure) until his nose began to itch and out sneezed this glorious shuffle of half-awake, hand-drawn monsters! It's actually pretty obvious now that I've said it aloud. But feel free to do your own research. Orrrr.... just follow me blindly into the Sneeze & Scribble Conspiracy Club! We meet every second Wednesday.

Learn How To Live

This week's scribbler is Anna Voyaka and her cut-and-pastey scribbles! Okay I know it's TUESDAY and I'm suppose to post on MONDAY but I blame the time difference. And by "the time difference" I mean the 24-hour lag between "the time it actually is" and "the time it FEELS like after having a confusingly long nap on a Sunday afternoon". Hey wait: are all these "quotation marks" making your fingers twitch into "air quotes" without you even realising? That makes me feel powerful like a puppet master! You are all Backstreet Boys and this is our Bye Bye Bye film clip! Now I shall leave you guys to draw straws about who has to be Nick Carter in this scenario. Bye! (ain't no lie) Bye bye bye bye!
