Jane in N.Z Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 mines certainly a mess.....christmas papers and embellishments in a June holiday in the UK and photos of the Queen doesn't quite match😱 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelle Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 Here is my LO so far with the random embellishments I ended up with. Most of them seem to be pretty generic rather than themed, except for the shell pendant - and I luckily ended up with a couple of teal things that match the teal paper! The pink bow and flowers don't go well with the red paper, though. I'm loving everyone's layouts so far. Right now I'm just throwing everything onto the page; I'll actually organize them and place them nicely later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The three papers are from BMU Bon Appetit; OAWA Cozy Christmas; and CWX First Dip of Summer. So far I'm laughing at the mess. Diane, this photo is absolutely perfect for this challenge! 🤣 This is what I feel like after seeing my layout so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your color palette so far matches pretty well, though, that's a plus. Love the castle and Queen photos! Awwww, I miss the Queen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida granny Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 All 7 embellishments added. My brain is a little fried from all that counting so I haven't tried to do anything artistic (haha) with this yet. Also, I'm not too sure about the combo of Christmas paper with a big pink flower, or, come to think of it, how the hardware washer fits with anything else... but here it is: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraceJ Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Feeling blessed that I born in August, so I'd find easily outdoor pictures, since I love nature. Here's all what I have collected so far, counting a lot but it was fun. Hope isn't any new "instruction", so far loving what I have. They aren't ordered yet, I want to read the last instruction, so I know how I'm gonna put all of this together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelle Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 A few of you have layouts that so far look more like masterpieces than messes... maybe a random word art will fix that issue? 😄 WordArt: If you were born on the 1st – 9th of the month: 12th designer, 3rd collection, 7th wordart. If you were born on the 10th-19th of the month: 7th designer, 4th collection, 5th wordart. If you were born on the 20th-31st of the month: 6th designer, 10th collection, 5th wordart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelle Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 Here is my word art. It doesn't necessarily fit the page or photo, but it's not bad... maybe it's a more beautiful world when looking through Giraffe glasses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida granny Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Well, bad news and good: I mis-read the instructions for one of the embellishments and counted forward instead of backwards, so my white flower is gone. But the new embellishment, counted correctly, I believe, is now a heart cluster from Syndee. Whew! The good news is that my word art actually fits!! It's "Unique". I'm not posting the page because I've been moving stuff around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelle Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 We all love Alphas, right? Well, I know I do, so everyone else must, too. 😈 Title: Use an alpha for your title (any title you wish): Count from the bottom of your list up: 16th designer (from the bottom), 3rd collection, 1st alpha. Edited to add, we'll have one more task after this, so stay tuned! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrapgarden Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Had a terrible time finding a alpha near my 16th designer. 16th didn't have a single alpha in any of her kits! At least I lucked out after hunting through 4 designers and got a blue alpha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
