Hi, Debbie
here, with Adornit’s monthly scrapbooking challenge! April’s theme is “Daily
Travels.” Remember
that the purpose of this year-long challenge is to help you scrap “bits and
pieces of everyday life.” I want you to end up with ten layouts that focus on little things that
you wouldn’t ordinarily scrapbook about – the everyday moments that are quickly
forgotten.
Each month
I’ll announce three required elements that you must have on your layout. I will
also suggest a theme – but using the theme is optional. Just remember that to
be entered into the monthly prize drawing, you WILL have to use the three
required elements. And you’ll have to post your layout somewhere so we can see
it! If you come back to this post and link to the Mr. Linky gadget at the bottom, we’ll be able
to find your layout. You can also post it to our Facebook fan page
(instructions at the end of this post).
The Challenge
Requirements are:
- something
scalloped
- photo
with YOU in it!
- mini
alphabet or small cut-out letters
Now what
could your layout have on it? Here are some ideas for you: A photo of your car
– inside or outside, a photo of YOU inside your car, a photo of kids in their
car seats, a page about your commute, a page about carpools, photo of the
scenery you see as you drive, a page of YOU on your daily jog or walk, anything
that tells about your everyday travels.
Check out
our examples – we used papers and elements from Adornit’s new Destination
Collection for our pages (available in stores now).
This is Alison
Lindhart’s layout. Ali
is a graphic designer here at Adornit. In fact, she designed the Destination Collection – how
fun for her to create a layout with product she designed! Cute stuff. Alison is
an awesome designer.
And here is
my layout. I also used supplies from the Destination Collection. All product is
from Adornit, except the large title letters are Anna Griffin. Click here to see a selection of Adornit mini alphabets that you can use for your small
journaling.
