#1 Create a page that starts with the color being light at the bottom and then gets progressively darker as you move up the page. - 2 pts
#3 The mixture of shapes and colors in these vintage quilts by Daintytime are amazing! Use one of them as inspiration for your next layout. - 2 pt. | I was inspired by
this quilt. It looks like it has been put together, then cut apart & rearranged, then put back together.
#4 I love how the paint makes the photos on this page POP! Create a page of your own using a white background and layers of paint or masks to make your photos pop. - 2pt.
#5 Typography is amazing. Use this poster as inspiration to use one letter for two words. Get creative - slice, dice and mix it up! 2 pt.
#9 Nothing makes me happier than learning new ways to edit my photos. There are tons of tutorials on photo editing on this site. Go there and pick an edit to try on one of your photos. Make sure you tell us which one you used! - 2 pts. | This was my favourite challenge! That site has amazing tutorials. I followed the '
Storybook Vintage Flashback' tutorial.'
#14 Squares + different patterns? YES, PLEASE! Use 10 different papers in some composition with squares! 2pts.
#16 Clare Caufield's pen-and-ink drawings are beautiful, fun, and whimsical. Use one of her featured artwork as a jumping-off point for a layout. - 2pts | I was inspired by the her drawing of Paris with all the pink in it!
#17 Do you feel a bit stuck with *how* to tell your story? Ali Edwards has a free video series with various techniques she uses on her pages. Try one of them on a layout. - 2pts. | In video #2 Ali talks about repetition, beginning each sentence with the same phrase. One phrase she suggested was "I want to remember ..."
#20 This is such a beautiful white layout. Use it as inspiration to create your own monochromatic layout in any color you choose. You may have an accent color, but your page should focus on various shades of a single color. - 2 pts.
#21 One pinner had a cute idea to frame these speech bubbles and use a dry erase marker to write down cute quotes (said by kids, friends, etc.).
