Default Think Outside The Box - March 2





Sweet Shoppers, another month of Think Outside The Box challenges is behind you! Congrats to all of you who completed all four of February's challenges because you'll have rewards coming your way very soon! To kick off March, I have an incredible piece of inspiration that was forwarded to me by SugarBabe Trish! I just love this week's challenge, what the Babes have done with it and I seriously can't wait to see what you do with it too!

As usual, you'll need to scrap a layout for this challenge and post in this thread by midnight EST on March 8th, 2014 for your chance to win your choice of a kit from our Featured Designer Juliana Kneipp's shoppe!

Don't forget, even if you miss the deadline for this week's Featured Designer giveaway, you can still earn Sweet Rewards for completing all of this month's TOTB challenges too and posting in our Sweet Rewards tracker thread for the month! Coupons are automatically sent to everyone who completes an entire month of challenges, so don't forget to track your completed challenges each month so you don't miss those sweet discounts in the shoppe!

Before I go, I'm proud to announce our TOTB winner for the February 23rd challenge...



Congrats stefanie, you can check out this thread for details on how to claim your prize!

Now enough babbling from me, get scrappin' & trackin' chickies!

Happy Sunday!

Robin

I was so happy that this inspiration was picked!! I've been needing an excuse to use it as inspiration.

Here's my page if any of you want a closer look.

Wow, you guys are really rockin' this Challenge!! My page was inspired by the book (and upcoming movie) Divergent. "I don't want to be just one thing. I want to be brave and selfless and intelligent and honest and kind."

Thanks Stephanie! I just finished Divergent, because I wanted to read it before the movie came out.

Gorgeous pages everyone - I love all the different takes on this challenge!

Love this page, I hope you don't mind Judie but I've been wanting to learn how to do this to a photo for ages and so I might take the opportunity to learn during this challenge. Thanks for such a great page and inspiration!!!

So here is mine, took me ages to learn and figure out how to do the text like this, but I think it was worth it (inspired also by Judie's page)

If you're asking how to do a typography portrait, I learned the technique in a class called Art of Journaling, taught by Amanda Taylor at Scrapaneers. If you want a more general tutorial on different ways to incorporate fonts into your page, check out this one by Alexis: How I Play with Fonts.

Have fun - I can't wait to see what you create.

Default Surprise

Mar. 2

We surprised her with a Disneyland vacation. She had no idea until we were driving in front of the park and she saw the Tower of Terror. The picture was taken in the hotel lobby when we were checking in and she realized we were staying for more than a day. A fun surprise!
