Progressive Challege Day #5

Today's the day!  Your layout will be complete!!  Today I invited you to try something NEW! 

Step #1
Create a hand-made embellishment.

 

I made "bubbles"  To make bubbles, all you need is a spare plastic baggy, liquid glass, and a circle cutter.

 

Cut the side seems of the baggy.

Using a circle cutter (I choose my coluzzle) I can several different sizes of circles from the baggy.





I then used Liquid Glass around the outside edges of each of the circles.







Step #2 Add your title using stickers!
I love CTMH stickease because they coordinate perfectly with the paper as well as provide whole sayings and quotes.

 

Step #3 Add journaling and any final touches!

 

What does your layout look like?

Progressive Challege Day #4

How is your layout coming along?  Having fun?  I sure hope you are! 

Today's challenge is to add a strip of that 3rd color of cardstock you picked out on Day 1.  Add it to the layout. 













Then adhere your focal photo to the opposite page (if doing a 2-page layout) as your photo stripe! 

Progressive Challege Day #3

I hope this finds you well on your way to creating a beautiful layout!  Today it is simple.  Add an embellishment of a contrasting color.  I used chocolate ribbon.  If you are doing a two page layout put the same embellishment on both pages!  Then add a piece of cardstock in the same color of 12" x ? (whatever you like).

Progressive Challege Day #2

It's not too late to join the fun!  Grab some pictures and scroll down to see yesterdays challenge.  Today we will add additional photos and our paper to our base pages!

Day #2: Using your leftover photos from yesterday create a photo strip (you can make it smaller than mine, but I wanted to use the whole photos).

Then add two blocks of color using the cardstock you matted your focal photo.  I added blocks of color to both pages of my layout.  I added a small stripe of Pear carstock to the top of page two above my photo strip then a big block of Cotton Candy cardstock to the bottom.  I then added a small piece of Cotton Candy to the bottom right corner of my page 1.
Where will you put your blocks of color and how big will you make them?

Progressive Challege Day #1

Welcome to the summer fun of our weekly Progressive Challenge!  Each day I will post that day's assignment with pictures.  On the following Sunday I will post my finished version.  If you post a picture of your finished layout on my Facebook fan page: Scrapali - Close to my Heart, you will be entered into a chance to win FREE products! 

Day #1
Pick your photos and then look through your stash to find 3 different colors of SOLID cardstock.

 

Chose one of your photos to be your focal picture for this layout.  Matt your focal photo using two of your cardstock choices.

PROGRESSIVE Challenge!

Beginning June 4, I will issue a "challenge" you create that element of the layout.  You create one step at a time and by the end of the week you will have a complete layout!  You choose whether it is 1 page or a 2 page spread.  Look for more details coming TOMORROW!
