Post by vickstar Wed Feb 24, 2010 11:22 pm

My challenge for you this month is a little different to what you are all used to. Instead of me setting the challenge for you, i want you to set a challenge for yourself.

I always see the amazing work that other people do and think i would love to give that a try, but i wouldn't know where to start, then i just never get time to go back and have a go. So this month i have done just that. I have completed a layout with a chipboard alpha background, and i love how it turned out!!

So what i would like you all to do is to create a layout using a technique or style you have never used before, but always wanted to have a go at. I would also like you to take notes/pictures while you are creating your layout, and up load the details of how to create a layout like yours, into the Tips and Techniques thread!!

Here is my example:
Challenge 3: Vicki's Challenge Play_g10

And you can find my instructions on how to create this layout in the tips and techniques thread here!!

The winner of this challenge will receive a $20 store voucher PLUS free postage to hArtymoments!!!
You can check out the fabulous products available (papers from 33c!) at hArtymoments here:
Challenge 3: Vicki's Challenge Harty_11


Entries for this challenge need to be uploaded into the appropriate folder in the Top 50 Gallery by midnight, 31st March. You can find the folder HERE

Cool challenge Vick! I am going to have to do a little research and a bit of planning for this one! That background looks awesome - something I would also like to try! Challenge 3: Vicki's Challenge Icon_biggrin

Looks great Vicki, that alpha technique is one that I have always wanted to try too.....I took a photo this morning specifically for this type of LO - (Challenge 3: Vicki's Challenge Lol you know you are a scrapper when...). I should pm it to you to show you why it would be perfect.

Now off to put on my thinking cap for another technique....oh...there are soooooo many!

Wow, what a brilliant layout! Perfect for using up all those odd alphas you get left with.
LOL, got no idea where to start with this challenge...will have to put my thinking cap on, so many choices. Great that your challenge pushes us to do something different. Challenge 3: Vicki's Challenge Icon_smile

LOL Charm, i have been pulling my alphas out over my thickers lately and doing mixed alpha titles!! I just sorted them all into letters rather than sets so i can just grab the latters that i need and paint them up the same!! Smile
