Welcome to April. Use the below list to inspire your project. You can use one, some or all the prompts on the list. Substitutions are welcome and encouraged. • polka dots • something floral • border strips • chipboard • stamping • sequins All types of projects count (paper, digi, hybrid, PL, art journaling, anything else you create) and if you share your projects online please link them here so we can admire and leave some love. You can find instructions to post in the Refupeas gallery in this thread but shout out if you need help. I hope you find time to play along and I can't wait to see what everyone creates. |

Here we go. Very bad lighting on the photo. We've got polka dots, something floral, border strips (washi), chipboard (that tiny black heart), stamping (and heat embossing), but no sequins. I don't have any, or else you can bet they'd be somewhere on that page! Thanks for the challenge Chinagirl828   |

chipboard, floral, stamping. this was a calvinball challenge where my daughter chose 5 supplies for me to use. needless to say, they were an interesting mix and i’m not crazy about the final product. but it’s worth a few points for my team, so it’s all good!  |

sequins and stamping (date at top in white) Did you staple your sequins?? What a great idea if you did. |

cat2007 yes, the staples hold the whole embellie together (was originally going to stitch them on and decided i was too lazy)

stinkerbelle I just might have to try that. Otherwise, I avoid sequins like the plague because I hate peeling off glue dots to adhere them.

msliz loving the hearts! WTG getting all the fun stuff on one very pretty LO! The hearts were actually inspired by one of your February layouts. Yours were stitched, and some of them were upside down, and it was a really fun page. When I saw your page that day, I jumped up out of my chair and started punching out hearts, but had to wait until now to put the page together. It was a great way to use up a bunch of pink scraps! |

msliz I love all the hearts and the double border. It feels like the perfect background for a Hello Kitty photo! stinkerbelle that's such a dynamic background on your cool mom layout. I love the cascading hearts and super cute penguin. I admit I wondered about some of your embellishment choices on the She is Lovely page - the vintage deer with the retro tiger seemed an unexpected combo but I think you've mixed the different embellishments well. mamakoala great double page. I really like how you've used the PL cards - especially the one that houses the extra photo.

mom I'm kind of envious you got to go there. I love the big floral, especially how the green really picks up the green in the old vehicle.

I've been twice now - the first time I was like a kid at Disney World. And not in a good way! I was overwhelmed. So many things to see. So, so many people. But we went back again at the end of Feb and I was able to really enjoy it. |

mamakoala both of your LOs are great! On the Disney page, I really love how you used the 3x4 cards. On the second, I really like the interesting photo arrangement and mix of photos. That splatter paper is pretty cute too!

Here's mine for this challenge - in this case it was the photos as well as the background that were stashed.

Love your pages, gramma! Love that hang glider diecut and those tilted photos on page one and all the circles that tie the two pages together. Doesn't it feel good to get some of those older stories told? |

the snapchat thingie may have tinged it blue though...
