Thanks! I rarely do layouts without photos for the same reason. Since this was for the recipe layout challenge, it was easier since I felt the recipe was the main focus.

Great layouts ladies!

This is one I did recently for another challenge, so I thought I'd share it here. I will work on a new layout sometime this month. Great challenge, thank you, Amanda!! AFT_SSPaper_ErodedBooks_3AFT_SSPaper_Notebook_PaperJRA_Emb_CoffeeStaintmd_readagoodbook

Here is my layout using one photo for both a background and embellishment stack.

Your challenge today is to use the same photo multiple times on your layout. You can use more than one photo, but one photo must be used more than once. I can't wait to see your creative layouts! Ideas: *Use the same photo in color and black and white (or other photo treatment) *Use a photo in the background as well as the main photo *Highlight different aspects of the same photo by creatively cropping or framing Post your layouts in the Weekly Newsletter Challenge Gallery and post a link back in this thread.

Thank you for your patience, ladies! I just sent the link for this month's recipes. You will receive the gift certificates for participating via e-mail. 👏 CONGRATULATIONS!! 👏 @scrapgarden you are the winner of the quarterly recipe challenge!!

You made it in time!!! I won’t be home until Monday (tomorrow) now so it was perfect timing. I k ow you have your hands full!!

Please remember: It is easiest for me if you use your name or user name + the Recipe name (SodScrap_YummyFood) as the file name on your recipe. (I may change it to make it easier for me to track if you don't.) This may seem silly, but it helps me a TON if your user name is first! Thank you!!

Happy August!! This month's theme is Momma's Favorites!! Any family recipe that has been handed down or is an "always must have" at family gatherings will do! To participate in the Recipe Swap, please email your 4"x6" high resolution (300 dpi saved a high quality - (1200 x 1800 pixel) Recipe Card to sg.sodscrap@gmail.com by MIDNIGHT, Monday August 31, 2020. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS: It is easiest for me if you use your name or user name + the Recipe name (SodScrap_YummyFood) as the file name on your recipe. (I may change it to make it easier for me to track if you don't.) You are welcome to submit more than one recipe. Please do! Please post your recipe in the Recipe Card Gallery and post a link in this thread. After I have compiled the recipes, you will receive a link to download the recipe cards from all our participants. You must send in a card to get the link! Please remember the link is active for 7 days. New for 2020: First, each month you participate you will receive a gift certificate to the design shop! The first month you participate (January) you will receive $1, the second month (February) $2 and so on. If you miss the third month (March) and participate in the fourth month (April) you would receive $3 and so on. Second, we will have a challenge each quarter. Do you try recipes you receive in the swap in your kitchen at home? At the end of each quarter, you will be challenged to create a layout including a recipe from the swap that you have tried. It can’t be your recipe and card!! Each person who does a layout will be in a drawing for a $5 gift certificate. But wait, there is more!! Everyone that participates EVERY month and EACH quarter challenge will be in a drawing for a $15 gift certificate at the end of the year.

Ladies, I'm out of town with less than reliable internet!! I will not be able to send out recipes until Sunday night or possibly Monday. If you see this and have another recipe to submit, I will take those cards! Also, I will give you a little extra time to get your quarterly layouts done and submitted if you would like. In the meantime, I will post the August swap so you can get started on that.

Is this a memory issue with your computer? I'd be sure trash is empty and temporary files are deleted. BUT, what do I know??? Hope it is fixed!
