OK...Lets get Scrapping!!!

1. Choose 2 or more photos, 1 patterned paper and 3 coordinating solid/textured papers

2. Make your background one of the solid papers. Then place the patterned paper on top so that it touches at least 2 sides..... but NO corners!!

3.Crop all your photos into the same shape (they can be different sizes) you can do circles/squares/rectangles/hexagons... anything you want!
Crop all 3 solid papers into the same shape too.... but not the same as your photos! (if you have circle photos... make square papers) Yes you are using the background paper a second time
pile everything in the center of your page.

4. Add 3 different fasteners to your page.... and use them each more than once!

5. Add a LARGE embellishment under the photos/paper pieces pile. Try to use one the same basic shape as your papers if you can. For example.. use an oversized brad, sticker, or tag!

6. Add a frame to one of your photos... and then add 3-4 more embellishments of your choice.... BUT NO FLOWERS!!!

7. Make a title using at LEAST 2 different colors (you can use alphas or fonts!!). Date and journal if you wish and upload to the gallery, appropriate forum, and this thread!

Be sure to leave some love in the Gallery!! Thanks for playing!!
