And how about a little challenge....
....you know I LOVE patterned paper....and I know that cardstock is a staple...and I used it too, but on this layout it is ALL pp!! So...that is my challenge....you can use NOOOOO cardstock on your layout!!! ONLY pp and elements!
That is going to be FUN!

How about another one!
The boards are up again (but some folks are still having a hard time getting in...if you will respond here we will try to send you a reactivation email and see if that helps! It has helped a few folks!)
BUT just in case we will keep posting the sketches here!
Here is Holly's!
You could easily make this a 2 photo!
Here is Holly's example...
And now the challenge!
Holly used MINIMAL colors on this layout to make the focus on the picture!!! I love that....so your challenge is to use a SOLID background (no pp) and use ONLY 3 other colors but they must be used SPARINGLY!!! Have fun!
We have two more sketches for you today!!!!

Time for another Saturday Sketch!
This time it is April....check this out....
And here is her beautiful inspiration!
And I'm sure you all wanna know her challenge!
Red and green are traditionally Christmas colors. But if you add a pop of yellow and white, they look great on a summer LO, like mine! What colors do you think would look great with red and green?
My challenge to you is to use the color combination of red and green on a non-Christmas L.O.! Have fun!
Let's get to creating!

Teresa's Sketch/Inspiration/Challenge
Here is what Teresa shared.....
Her inspiration....
Oooohhhh....and her challenge
1st:I want to see you use a question for your title. This can be a long title like mine or a one word title...as long as there is a question mark!
2nd: I want to see the color purple on your page purple seems to be an often forgotten color when it comes to scrapping (I had to dig through my garage sell pile to find purple or this page ) So I want to see at least some pops of purple.
Okay...have fun ladies! There is one more sketch/layout from yesterday and I'm working on getting it for ya!
