You have until Sunday, March 3, to post challenges in this thread. Each challenge will have a value of one point, but feel free to add bonus points within your challenge.
Please read the challenges above yours in this thread so challenges are not exactly duplicated. (Please note it is perfectly fine to challenge us to use something that is already included on the Bingo card in Challenge #4)
Please number your challenge(s) so that your number follows the challenge before it.

10. Show No Background PaperPocket pages are an easy automatic point. Or, if you make a more traditional page, you'll need to conceal all of your background paper with paper and stuff. Use your photos and cards to make a grid design. Or be more creative by covering your background with other materials (it's a great opportunity to use your smallest paper scraps.) Maybe a quilted look, or overlap like roofing shingles or scales. Use strips of paper for a rainbow or landscape effect. Or use a whole-page cut file backed with scraps. Lots of ways to tackle this one  ETA: grammadee, you asked how can you use up your ugly cardstock? Completely cover it with something else so you can't even see it!

12. GREEN - use green on your pages. It doesn't have to be the whole page but it should be a predominant colour. Bonus point for a monochromatic green page.

I hope this one is Okay . . . please let me know if it is not. #21 . There are many online blog challenge sites that offer challenges as well. Play along with a challenge that is specific (not anything goes). I am a DT member of two different ones, Retro Rubber Blog Challenge and Stick It Down. Sometime last year I compiled a list of primarily scrapping challenges. The list can be found here on my blog. If you share on the share page, please link up with the outside challenge you choose. |
