Hi girlies.....are you ready to go back to school???? Because we have been very busy planning our most famous 2nd Annual TOP DESIGNER!!!!! So....if you are a returning student from last year, then you know exactly what to expect, and if you are new and this will be your first semester here at BAD GIRLS DESIGN ACADEMY, then please let me explain what this is all about!
Here at BAD GIRLS, we have always prided ourselves on being known as a Teaching Site. We believe very strongly in strengthening your artistic skills though well thought out instruction. We like to keep our girls expanding in their ability in all mediums of art. So, with that in mind, TOP DESIGNER is 6 weeks worth of Classes, each one taught by one of our very talented BAD GIRL DESIGNERS. Each class will focus on a Principal of Design. After you are given your homework in class, you will have approx. 6 days to complete your assignment, and then you must post your homework to a specified place in our BAD GIRL GALLERY. Your work will at this time be judged and you will only move on in the competition to the next week if you make our HONOR ROLL. But, don't fret if you are Expelled from BAD GIRLS DESIGN ACADEMY, because we welcome you to stay....sit at the back of the class and still enjoy the learning process...enjoy the comraderie of hanging out and meeting new friends in a very friendly environment! We truly want you to share your artwork with us as you too complete all the classes!
At the end of the 6 week semester we will have one student that will emerge as BAD GIRLS TOP DESIGNER!!! I suppose you want to see the prize???? Well...I must say, it is GORGOUS....over $650.00 in prized...take a look:

Hi Wendy,
I know you are probably really busy with the switch for the message board, however, I really wanted to join for the TOP DESIGNER 2008 and I can't have acces to the message board since this morning and I know the last day was today as it is starting tomorrow. Is their any way to add me to it and I will log into tomorrow and do what I need to do for my signature.
Thanks
