Challenges

I really love challenges. For some reason I can always come up with stuff I'd never think up on my own in a million years! I've done lots of card-making challenges (I guess you could consider a swap somewhat of a challenge too), where somebody sends you a pre-stamped image and you have to make a card with it, or a background that you have to incorporate into one of your own designs.

In digital scrapbooking it's even more fun--not only do you get to create fun and unexpected pages, but on top of it, you get some remarkable loot!

Here's the result of Kellie Mize's Ad Challenge at Designer Digitals, with her great template:

Heather Taylor, Never Turn Your Back On The Waves


(Font: New Gothic Standard. Template by Kellie Mize. Japanese kamon.)



The frame I made the other night by smooshing some white acrylic paint on a piece of black cardstock with a scrunched-up paper towel (yes, those are the technical terms!)--then inverting it for this layout.

  1. I also enjoy challenges, they make you work out of your comfort zone. I'm always happy by the results I get from one :)

    Your page looks so great and the background frame really looks like sea foam or something :P
