Christmas Eve Roadmap to Scrap
Wednesday, December 24th, 2008Merry Christmas! I’m so excited to bring you a Christmas Eve edition of Roadmap to Scrap! In honor of the hectic holiday season, I tried to keep the RTS pretty tame. Remember, you must complete all eight stops in order to recieve your point. So here are your eight stops:
1. Choose a picture/pictures that you’ve been procrastinating about. You know the ones…you pass them over time and time again, thinking: ‘I’ll get to those later’. Choose one or many, it doesn’t matter.
2. Frame your picture/pictures.
3. Choose papers that coordinate with the colors in your picture. Use as many as you like.
4. Build a cluster around your picture.
5. Add your ‘signature element’. You know, that one element you can’t get enough of…string, clips, ribbon, stitching, staples, choose one and add it to your LO.
6. Tuck an element or two behind your picture or mat.
7. Use an alpha for your title and embellish it in some way.
8. Journal, tell the story of the picture.
Here’s what I came up with using Hustle and Bustle by Britt-ish Designs:
Stacy used The Bright Side by Britt-ish Designs for her bright, fun LO:
And Kim used Angel Baby Girl by Haynay Designs and Razzle Dazzle Alpha by Britt-ish Designs to create this sweet page:
Monique created this soft, subtle page using Diane-spiration templates by Sya’s Blueprints, Friend of Mine Kit by Digi Keepsakes by Monica, In Stitches Basics by Britt-ish Designs, Hang a Month Date tag by JenLin Designs, Alpha from Peace and Quiet by Andilynn and Britt-ish Designs
And finally, here’s a great one from Mary:
I can’t wait to see what you come up with! So here’s the nitty-gritty:
You can of course do more than these 8 things…and the rules are open to interpretation. Be creative, for example, if you use something that meeting more than one requirement, lucky you!
You will have ALL month to scrap your layout, and when you complete it, you MUST post it to the “RoadMap to Scrap” Challenge Gallery AND in the forum here to get credit.
Your completed layout will earn you one point in the Matter of Scrap Challenge System.
In addition, you can earn another point by using a newly released product (you must scrap and upload your layout within the first 7 days of the products release – and remember, you MUST indicate that you used a new release).
Remember, no double dipping…your layout must be unique to this challenge.
Merry Christmas!
