And I challenge you…….
.........to create a LO with one of Amy Martins Templates available in the shop. So it's Monday and I wanted to get right to the point. Sometimes it is hard for me to use a template because I never know where to start or how to finish. I really love Amy's templates because she gives you so much creative freedom with them. They are designed so any level of scrapper can use them and two people can use the same template with such a different, unique result. Naturally, I chose to do a challenge with her templates so that you are inspired to create something unique. You must use 75% TLP product including one of Amy's templates and for everyone who participates and posts a LO in the challenge gallery I have a little surprise. I promise to pm you with a link as soon as I comment on your LO. Also, by posting your LO in the challenge gallery you are eligible to win a $5 GC to the shop.So … [Read more...]
