Hi and welcome to a New Monthly Challenge!
The July Challenge is called "1 Of FIVE"
The idea for this challenge is that you choose 1 out of the five shapes/symbols to include on your project, 1 of the five phrases as your title or inspiration/theme and 1 of the five colours to include on your project.
The Shapes/symbols are: Butterfly - Banner - Star (or this could be a sun) - arrow - circle.
The Phrases : Summer Days - Right Now - You and Me - Explore - The Story ...
* You don't need to include the exact phrase but something very similar .... I need to be able to see the link *
Colours: Yellow - Light blue/Aqua - Red - Black - White
*Any shade of the colour is fine!*
This month we have some fabulous examples from the Team:
Jemma had fun with an Easter photo from last year and some very ancient stash (the Christina Cole Life Happens paper from 2006). The page started life with the June sketch by MiniOwner but ended up elsewhere!
Shapes/symbols: Circles
Phrase : (Here's) the story...
Colours: White and Aqua
Louise used a photo taken a few weeks ago with Heidi Swapp products
from the April Kit along with the new Heidi Swapp shapes stencils and pink color shine, Tim Holtz stars layering stencil and inks
Shapes/symbols: inked arrows stars and sunburst paper
Phrases : Right Now
Colours: Yellow, Light blue and White
Annie used a photo from back in 1982, when her son was just starting to explore his little world. The design was inspired by a Glitter Girl video and uses 3x4 cut-aparts from the collection, so it will co-ordinate perfectly with a pocket page layout using more photos from around the same time.
Shapes/symbols: Arrows
Phrase : Explore
Colours: Yellow, White, Aqua & pops of Red
Supplies: Simple Stories Homespun Collection Kit and Simple Stories Daily Grind Chipboard Stickers.
Lisa-Jane chose a photo from last summer about a crazy day watching Big Foot.
Supplies: Echo Park All About A Boy, red cardstock and the rest from stash.
Shapes/symbols: Star/Sun (The cogs!)
Phrase : Summer Days
Colours: Red, yellow, white, black and blue (Well done LJ for getting all the colours on her page!)
Supplies: Echo Park All About A Boy, red cardstock and the rest from stash.
If you click on the name above the image of the layout it will take you to their blog. The team work hard to create their sample so if you could take a minute to pop over to their blogs and leave them a comment I know they would really appreciate it!
So, are you up for this month's challenge?
Add your entry to the linkt tool below if you want to play along. A link back to this post is much appreciated.
The challenge will close on 31st July 2014 at 11.59pm
