Roadmap to Scrap January 7th 2009
Hi all, here’s Monique (monsu) with our first roadmap of the new year! I hope my directions will inspire a fun trip and a great destination!
1. Choose a template
2. Add black and white or sepia photo(s)
3. Use a solid background and as many patterned papers as you like
4. Blend an embellishment or use a brush
5. Use a handwriting font to add a quote; you can search for an appropriate one here:

inspirationpeak
6. Repeat an embellishment at least twice
7. Combine different fonts to add your title, no Alpha’s this time!
8. Add a date and journaling as you wish to finish your page!
Here’s the page that inspired me to these directions, using JenLin Designs’ Jenny Jo Kit, on sale now and for one more week only!!
And here’s some more inspiration from our fabulous CT:
Christine (Alamama) used Erica Zane’s Falling Dusk and a Template by Britt-ish Designs
Andrea (Chia) used Dirty Feet Designs template–White Space Vol. 2, Sya’s Blueprint’s kit–All Loved Up, Fluffy Bunny Feet’s frame set–I’ve Been Framed, Erica Zane’s flower from–Woodland Fantasy
Mary (Littlehiccup) used GG Digital Designs Believe in the Magic, Inspired by Kelsey Templates by Britt-ish Designs, and Hustle and Bustle by Britt-ish Designs
Melanie (Melanie3boys) used As Time Goes By, Simply Sweet Designs and Triple Threat 3 Template Set by Sya’s Blueprints
Now these are the rules:
In order to reach our destination, we MUST have all 8 things in our layout. 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, that’s just fine!
You will have ALL this month to scrap your layout, and when you complete it, you MUST post it to the “RoadMap to Scrap” Challenge Gallery AND in this forum thread 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). And finally, if I pick your layout as my favourite, you’ve earned one more pint!
Remember, no double dipping…your layout must be unique to this challenge.
Can’t wait to see where these directions take YOU!! Have fun!
