Can we share plaid kits/layouts for the no.5 challenge?

[Valgal]

The aqua kit thread really helped me a lot, did anyone start one for the plaid challenge?

[Kim Mauch]

Loved this challenge.
Here's mine:

Here's one I did recently, although not for the challenge. I had never used a plaid background before, but I like how it turned out.

[Valgal]

I posted this question and then totally forgot about it, lol! Thanks for all the ideas :) I know what I'm going to scrap now!

[Jengerbread88]

I used the When You're Smiling Add On by Traci Reed.

[Jennilyn]

I haven't seen the rules of the challenge, but you can make any striped paper into a plaid. Just duplicate the layer, rotate 90 degrees and change opacity to 50% then merge. :)

Oh my word! This is amazing! I must have this kit! :)

[lovely1m]

So apparently, I don't like plaid paper. I looked through my gallery and found no LOs with plaid paper backgrounds.

[bellbird425]

loving all the plaid examples!

[Kim Mauch]

Here's a plaid one I did in February:

I really like plaid backgrounds and will be doing more for sure!

Great tip, I cannot search through my stash to find plaid pp ('cause my ACDSee isn't working), but it'll be easier to find a striped paper! I'll try this!!

[Cari]

Here's mine. I'm not comfortable w/ the patterned papers yet, so I made mine really, REALLY simple. lol

[mummytothree]

Finally got around to scrapping mine!!!

[livelys]

I wasn't 100% sure what plaid was?! I guess we simply call it chequed or tartan in the UK. Glad you asked the question about choices - who'd have thought language would be a problem when it comes to simple patterns? :blink:

[jaylensmom]

love the layouts...i'm having a hard time finding plaid...everytime i think i have one it's a graph paper...i'm going to try again tonight...

[ryliesmom]

I used Melissa's Bunnylove.

[LenaGardner]

I just did one...there's an AWESOME plaid paper in La's kit that is coming out tomorrow! :)

[4noisyboys]

OMGosh lena!!! Love love love that!

[4noisyboys]

Just thought I'd share a plaid layout of mine. I have some where they are mostly the backgrounds, but this one totally is!! This is also with La's At The Bus Stop (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=18732&cat=0&page=1).

Rachelle mine wasn't a plaid paper....I took the advice of someone earlier in the thread and just duplicated a striped paper....turned it 90 degrees and lowered the opacity to 50%....volia....instant plaid paper and stretched a kit to boot :thumbup: :D :D

[Julie Billingsley]

I put 2 great plaids in my newest kit just because of this! I love plaid!!

[jessica31876]

OK this is possibly the coolest thing EVER!!! I love plaid papers...mostly for matting under a solid or paper piecing but now I can have a plaid to go with just about any kit I own and I figure I can make my own striped papers if the kit does not have one I really like with the solid papers and then create a plaid that way. That is just to cool! So thanks!!I haven't seen the rules of the challenge, but you can make any striped paper into a plaid. Just duplicate the layer, rotate 90 degrees and change opacity to 50% then merge. :)
