October CC Mystery Challenge
The mystery challenge this month is…….a Blind Scrap!! You need to use the picture you uploaded to the mystery challenge folder (and can only enter if you have already posted a pic), to complete a layout with the following instructions:
Blind Scrap
Materials List:
1 5 x 7 inch landscape photo
1 white 12 x 12 cardstock
1 white cardstock 1cm bigger (all around) than your photo
Patterned paper pieces:
PP1 - 10 x 24cm
PP2 – circle 20cm
PP3 – circle 15cm
Embellishments
Instructions:
Please read all instructions before you start!! You may like to do things slightly different to what I have to make your layout suit your photo!! J Have fun!!
1. Doodle around all edges of the 12 x 12 cardstock in a pattern of your choice and colour in with 2 different colours that compliment your photo and pp!
2. Cut the bottom long edge of PP1 into a zigzag and distress the other edges. Distress edges of PP 2 and 3 as well. Doodle a line around all edges of the pp’s.
3. Place PP1 on an angle across the bottom of the page, so the left bottom edge is about 2cms up from the base and 4cms in from the left side, and the right side is up 4.5cms from the base.
4. Place PP2 in the top right corner approx 1cm from the top of the cardstock and 1cm fro the right side.
5. Place PP3 approx 1 cm from left edge of cardstock and 6cms from top, overlapping PP 1 and 2.
6. Stick your photo in the centre of the smaller piece of cardstock. Doodle and colour a border around your photo and cut out around your border if you want to.
7. Stick your photo in the centre of the layout on the same angel as PP1.
8. Put your title above your photo and use strip journaling down the right side of your photo.
9. Embellish the bottom of your page and make it your own!! J
I hope this is easy to understand and that you are happy with your end results!! J
You have a week to complete your layout. Please upload your layout into the Mystery Challenge Folder in the stand in gallery, next Thursday by midnight (please not before next Thursday as it is a blind scrap after all). Can’t wait to see how they all turn out!! If you have any questions, please ask!!
The prize for this challenge is a $20 prize pack from Top 50!! J

OK - I have another dumb question 
. The circles....when you say 20 and 15 cm - do you mean 20cm wide or 20cm radius? If I go by the first one they seem small - if I go by the 2nd - they seem big - so I am just not sure. As my DD would say - hope, hope (which translated literally means, help, help!)
It's OK - when I think about it a little more carefully - I realize the answer is staring me in the face. There is no was that the circles in the first option will overlap if placed where you say - so it has to be the 2nd choice.....right???

Vick - just thought I would let you know that your instructions were PERFECT. I woke up this morning and realized (it's amazing what sleep can do!) that I had been using an architectual ruler and I was using the 2:1 scale, meaning that my circles are infact the right size! I am sooooo glad I didn't change them. If I had of changed them last night I would of ended up with a 7.cm and a 15cm circle - and they just couldn't work..... .

Unfortunately I won't be doing this challenge. I drove into town this afternoon to get my photo printed only to be told I couldn't get one that size done. I drove home empty handed and have now given up!
