Elsie Flanigan Challenges
Over on SO CAL SCRAP http://www.socalscrap.us/index.htm
they are offering Elsies challenges one a week for 52 weeks .. okay that would be 52 more pages!
I started these last year and didn't complete very many.
Would anyone else be interested in Trying to complete these challenges with me?????
Here are the challenges for the first 4 weeks (so these should be completed in JAN)
week 1: Work Those Words Whether it's a quote, a list of your favorite adjectives or computer generated phrases, journaling on strips of cardstock is a great way to add visual excitement to your page. Be creative & cut a favorite quote/list/phrase into pieces to add to your design.
week2: Focus on One Photo Convert a favorite photograph into a black & white image, then use it as a focal point photo on your page. It will draw the viewer's eye right into the essence of your layout.
week3: Customize a Ribbon Border No matter how you turn it or what you add to it (buttons, eyelets, brads....)ribbon is a terrific page border that can be attached in so many creative ways. Create a CUSTOMIZED ribbon border for your layout.
week 4: Make your own chipboard accents Chipboard is so popular right now! By making your own chipboard accents, you can add a custom look to any scrapbook page. Draw or trace a shape onto plain chipboard. Cut the accent out with scissors or a craft knife, paint or color your accent then add details such as buttons, flowers, sticker or bling.
