Distressing!!
No this challenge isn't scary and it won't make you upset! It's all about distressing. I want to see some layouts, cards, altered items - anything creative you can make that includes some distressing.
Some examples of Distressing are: scrunching your paper up, sanding, tearing, running your scissors down the edge of the paper to roughen it up, using inks to distress and even spraying bleach on coloured paper to create a mottled effect - go wild, take your stresses out on your paper!!
Here's an example of how I sanded the pleats in the paper to distress them and bring out the lighter orange/white of the paper:
The Babes have been busy at work creating their Christmas Cards - and here they are:
In honour of Breast Cancer Awareness Month - I want you to create anything that's pink - it can be a layout in any size or shape, it can be something altered, it could even be something that you you could take a creative photo of!
So show me something pink!
Here is an example:
Take a photo of anything that isn't human and scrap it!
I would love to see at least one large photo and 2 smaller ones
- the twist - to make one of the photos a mosaic!
Here's an example of a mosaic:
Create a layout - any size - using alternative supplies for embellies
What this means is you have to use something that's not normally used in scrapbooking
eg. staples, paper clips, clothes tags, material, pages from a book, even stamping with something other than a conventional stamp - think outside the box and look around your house for funky items you can use!
There's no limit to how many you can use.
Have fun!
Here is an example - I used a real tag from a tea-towell and added it to my paper version
This weeks theme is "GRAND"
