It is time for the last challenge for February’s Bingo.  Even in this month of love sometimes love doesn’t last and people split up. I want to see you use a split design for your layout. Here are some layouts with different types of split design.

Here is my layout Bubbles and Kisses with a curvy split background using lots of the February Mix a Kit:For Pink’s Sake Alpha by Andilynn Designs, Sweet on U Elements by KimB’s Designs, For the Love Elements by Steph.Designs, Love U Clusters by Memory Clips, Sweet Love Elements by LDrag Designs, Tweet Love Elements, Patterns and Solids by Down This Road Designs, Scraps by Number:Just Call Me Amanda by Stolen Moments.

This layout from Kairyn Lisa named My Silly Pirate splits the photos on opposite sides of the page. She used A Pirate’s Life, Adventure Away Template, Pop Dot Alpha: Primary and Pebbles and Butterflies all by Haynay Designs

This layout Home from Eeyore has a split vertical background to frame a solitary photo and journaling.

Hello Digifriends!  Ramona of Memory Clips here to highlight one of our template challenges!  I love double page layouts because of all the pictures and journaling they can contain! Nothing quite tells your family story like a double page layout!

Every month, I provide a FREE template for you to scrap with.  This month’s template has room for 10 photos and plenty of journaling!  You can scrap a favorite event or a recent trip or maybe one of the recent holidays we have celebrated – like I did!  If you haven’t had a chance to download the template from the February Challenge List, just click on the image below to download!

Look at this fabulous layout, done by Creative Team member, Jan (QuiltyMom).

I hope you enjoy the template and I can’t wait to see what you do with it!  Just a few days left in February to get those bingo cards completed!!

Your challenge for today … white space! Scrap a page that has white space! The term “white space” refers to an area devoid of photos, embellishments, journaling, and title. White space provides a resting point for the eye and breathing room for the viewer taking in your photos and journaling.

Here is a layout I created using Sports Nuts- Girls Bundle by WimpyChompers

Here is another layout from Kairyn:

From Keepscrappin:

And here’s a wonderful example from Kairyn Lisa.
