SS Marathon Day #1

I can't believe it, but I am doing a Speed Scrap Marathon at MouseScrappers.  If I do all the Speed Scraps I will have scrapped sixteen new Disney layouts this weekend!!  Today I did very well and scrapped all five speed scraps!  Want to see the layouts?!  Of course you do!

Speed Scrap #1

1. Pick one photo.
2.  Pick your papers use at least 3 for your background. At least one paper needs to have polka dots.
3.  Place your photo on the page any way you wish (landscape or portrait), but you need to make sure it's in the middle of the page.
4.  At least 5 flowers on your page, but you can have more!! And at least one sparkle trail.

5.  Put at least one metal element on your page or you can use doodles, ribbon or string.
6.  Title and journaling Center your title under the photo using an Alpha of your choice and then add a subtitle in a different alpha than you used for the main title. And there must be at least 10 sentences of journaling.

7. Use any other embellies you want. buttons, word strip, flair etc.. apply your shadows and perhaps a hidden Mickey too!

 Speed Scrap #2

1.  I want to see an odd number of photos. There needs to be at LEAST 3, but no more than 13 in total. Make one of your photos larger than the others.

2.  Stack some papers for your background, at LEAST 1 patterned and 1 solid.

3.  Put a frame around at least one of your photos. Be creative. Maybe use a circle frame around a square/rectangle photo or a square/rectangle frame around a round photo.

4.  I love ribbons. I need to see at LEAST 2 different ribbons in your LO.

5.  I need to see at least 10 different TYPES of elements. Two buttons, even if they are different colors/styles does NOT count as 2 elements, etc. Using those elements, create at least 3 clusters. Your ribbon and frame DO count towards the element count.

6.  Since we're scrapping Disney I need either a hidden Mickey, pixie dust trail, or another character "hidden" in your LO. You don't have to include ALL of these, just one.

7.  Title your LO. Add some journaling (at least 2 sentences) and date it if you wish. Don't forget your shadows!

1.  I want to see a REALLY BIG photo on your page. (choose any many other photos as you'd like)

2.  No tilting!  Keep 'em straight.

3.  Put at least 2 rows of stitching somewhere on your page.
4.  Use a script font, or a handwriting font somewhere on your page. OR you could include an autograph!!
5.  Stretch your stash by recoloring an item to match your page. You can include the original colored item or paper on your page too, but recolor at least 1 thing.
6.   Date your page with some sort of tag or paper bit.
7.  Creative to title on your page.

1.  Use either 3, 6 or 9 photos, but every third one must be different. For example, 2 rectangle and one round… or 2 vertical and 1 horizontal….two black and white and one colored… etc.

2.  Use at least six different papers. You can use 9 if you wish or 12. Try to use a mixture of solids and patterned papers. These can be strips, circles, mats...
3.  The girls love pink....so I want to see something pink in your LO. If you LO isn't girlie...then I will accept something red. It can be paper or an embellishment.
4.  Use a splatter, sparkle, bling, pixie dust... etc.. on your page.
