to create a page using only 4 products! Becky and Amy here today with a challenge for you. Here are the "rules":
We're giving you a few freebies: scissors, writing pen and adhesive. You pick 4 additional products to make a page.
From Amy: Becky’s challenge was just that for me - a challenge!! I never knew I relied so heavily on so many different types of product/mediums when creating a page. I didn’t even sew on this page (gasp!) and for me that’s a big deal. I didn’t thread my buttons or anything.
The four “things” I chose to work with were patterned paper, ribbon from the Miscellany packs, buttons and alpha stickers. I found myself really struggling to make my page flow in a way that I thought it needed to. Finally after lots of experimentation, I was able to get a design I am happy with. I’m especially happy with the how the colors work together. Both the ribbon and the buttons became integral elements in the design, both in creating attention and in toning down attention (as in the yellow ribbon over the plaid paper in the bottom left corner) which is something I’m really happy with. I didn’t need to sew on it after all. :)
Here's her awesome page!
My 4 items were:
sewing machine
pattern paper
paper distresser
alpha stickers
I hope this challenge pushes you to try something new! We'd love to see your projects on the OA Flickr gallery. Thanks for participating!
