    Oh, such a great challenge to take me out of my comfort zone! It scares me a little but I can't wait to get home and play with this. I have a couple ideas in my head now, just have to see how it translates when I have the computer in front of me!

    This was fun, I don't think I have ever done any thing like this before! This was inspired by the colours and sounds of Spring :) Thanks for the challenge!

    LOL !!!!! A day or so ago I found myself thinking that this years MOC has been pretty tame and easy compared with the last two. ~~Silly person for thinking that!~~ The challenges have been fairly easy except for the dispersion one. And I have taken most of the challenges in stride pretty good. And now this!! And NOW I'm thinking maybe you all saved the "surprises" for the last few days of MOC6??????? LOL !!!!!

    I hope my art doll is so fine.
    That was definitely not my challenge, but it was a lot of fun when I first started. Suddenly ideas came that I did not know before;)
    Thanks to Tangie for the templates andthanks to Cynthia for this challenge ♥

    I chose the spring/summer photos using the pastel and lightest of the colors.

    I did this page for my daughter the bride to be! I chose to leave it faceless...

    I used Amber Labau kit BLUSH, template by JustJaimee...

    SO outside the box for me... but that's why I'm here! (and apparently I'm here to be completely behind... but I'm no quitter!) LOL!

    Inspired by summer and the nights outside spent stargazing

    This was SO FAR outside my clean and simple comfort zone... but I did it and I am glad to challenge myself with all these new things in MOC.

    This was so fun! I wasn't sure where to start, but once I got started, I couldn't stop adding stuff! :-)

    @MrsPeel be proud of me, I didn't mull over it too much. It actually came together pretty quick once I got my doll together and decided who I wanted her to be :)

    the colours of spring and the music of winter were my inspiration.

    I used a SPRING-ish theme. I listened to all 4 seasons twice in the time it took to make this layout. It's the text on the background that took so long. I did a search in my photo files for the word "doll" then copied and pasted all the captions I found in the photos' metadata, and made the word "doll" stand out. I lowered the text opacity to make it clear it's not the featured item on the page -- the doll is -- but I couldn't resist also reducing the opacity of the doll parts in case I want to read my text again someday.

    I think there's nothing I've come across in digital scrapbooking that I'm less interested in than dolls. It's not that they're hard to use. I just have no interest in dolls on my pages. I didn't play much with dolls as a child, even. But more importantly, I'm realizing that documenting my life is the most important part of scrapbooking for me. I'm signed up for Tangie's class, but I'll always be most interested in journaling and including lots of photos on my pages.

    But I think I made the best of it, and even kind of like my page. If not for the requirement to have the doll be the primary feature, I would have made the text more prominent and the doll tiny. Just an embellishment. But I probably won't get around to editing the page and will include it in my album just like this.

    The best part? As I was enjoying reminiscing while I was copying the captions from old photos, I found some things I'd like to scrap. And it will be easy to find them again, just by searching "doll."

    I will most definitely whisper a few prayers ... and send you a cyber HUG!!

    I hope that a little scrap therapy will help ease your mind for the time being ...
