Florida granny Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Yay! I can use the bird photo I'd been planning to use in Week 1. I'm making it black and white so I can use the papers I already picked. WooHoo! So far so good. Also I'm using CWX Good Mood template to help with the papers. I can tell this is going to be an easy week! Yup, easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I hope it's not too late to join in...I just found this challenge yesterday and thought it would be a good way to keep me moving on all of my vacation photos that I'm sooooo behind on. Here is LO #1 - Anchorage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silly Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Now to catch up with #2. If I'm counting this right, I need 6 papers, 1 photo, and 6 embellies.....be back soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silly Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Dumb question...is it OK to do more than the required or do we have to stick to the exact number, i.e. I have 5 embellishments instead of 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not to late to join in and so glad to have you join us If it says 4 embellishments then to use 4 but on the last task it usually says 'add any finishing touches' so you can add extra embellishments then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane in N.Z Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 my 4 embellishments are from..... aimeeh_WineCountry_leaves, ABR_Dec25_Branch, DDS_WinterWind_Bird,DDS_interWind_Branch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelle Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 OK... don't shoot the messenger please. Here is your task for today: Task for March 14th: Remove two papers from your layout. (Dodging tomatoes...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what Jane said, I rely pretty heavily on that very last task for these slow scrap layouts, where it usually will say add any finishing touches. I follow the tasks pretty well up to the last, and then if I think my layout really needs something more, I'll add it the last day. Also, it's NEVER too late to jump in! I'm usually behind on my layouts for these, even by a week or two. If you want to be in the running for a prize, you just have to upload all the layouts by the end of the month!

Mikelle Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Awww, Diane, Laraine, Jane... these are the LO's I can see posted just on this page, and all of your layouts are beautiful so far. I'm wondering which papers you will choose to pull out? Yikes, once I get caught up, hopefully this evening, I will follow all the steps and post thumbnails. Even though I now know the twist in the plot, I'll follow the tasks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't a dumb question!! This type of challenge is more literal and specific. So, if it says 4 embellishments, use only 4. (although I will copy an embellishment and use it multiple times and only count it as 1 ?) However, if it calls for 6 papers, you can use paper templates or layout templates (for blending/layering) even though it doesn't say to use them or not to. With this said, there is no SG Police ? so, in the end, it's up for your interpretation. Have fun and enjoy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Ok, I think I got it - here is mine so far with 2 less papers and 1 less embellishment. If I read your responses correctly, the extras are actually hidden just waiting for my "finishing touches" if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
