Hello hello everyone!!!!!!
we are chatting and scrapping!!!!!
I will be updating here if you want to scrap but cannot attend the chat you have until tomorrow to make the page and post!!!!!
Every one who completes a page in time will get a coupon tomorrow!!!!!

If you are new: in the top bar, between "tutorials" and "Newsletter" says "CHAT" just click there, log in with your name or Facebook, and join us for a fun chat!!!! :)

Apologies I couldn't get the tutorial written, had a really really bad week and last night was terrible, feeling better now thanks but here we go:

SOOOOOOOOOoooooooo here we are, as I explained in the chat, we will be using shapes repetition to give that wOw thing to our pages.

your page needs to have at least 5 shapes - the same shape, and one of those needs to be made out of a spill which you will de-cOnstruct- A SPILL AND MAKE IT INTO A DIFFERENT SHAPE...

try to get creative and not just choose circles or squares....but it is ok if you wanna go simple, the point is give an impact to the page with shape repetition, these can be different sizes- no worries -

HERE is a tutorial from our awesome @jenn mccabe for THREE WAYS with SCatters/ Spills:


SOME examples of shape repetition:

this from @Vrielinkie


this from @Rikki see how the first thing you notice isnt the stars, but those subtle triangles ij the right hand side

Circles always work well, this page from @Roxana is impressive


another way to make circles work, from awesome @KellyM


you can use stars, diamonds, even some ephemera or art journal dolls, just need to find a creative way of not taken all over the page, but still being kinmda focal and making the page have that call for attention.....
Remember one of the shapes needs to be made out of a de-cosntructed scatter/spill!!! you can outline or fill it in, up to you, but de construct a sceatter and make it the shape you c hose for your page!!!!!

The pages should be uploaded to the gallery and a link posted here by tomorrow 3pm EDT- which is 8pm for me, which I think is 9pm rest of Europe.

THANK YOU so so very much you all who came and have this magical effect that no matter how ill I was last night, you make me have a laugh and feel 100%
THANK YOU also for putting up with my typos LOL LOVE you ,
can't wait to see what you come up with on this one!!!!!!!!!!!

A special thank YOU THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUU to our awesome @Dalis for finding me the tutorial!!!!!!!! (and being in the chat!!!!!!! huggzzz)

Speed scrap for me!! Gotta run.
I cut the gold sparkle from Gitz Girl up to overlay on the shape. I also cut out part to use as an embellishment. Shape is the Girl Scout logo.
 
oh my friend! I came with all diligence to play and chat....I am so sorry...washing machine man came, and craziness. I am so sorry.
 
Here is my layout! It's my album cover. :)
I struggled for a bit, because first I wanted the whole outline of the castle as my "shape" but it just didn't turn out. When I switched to the flags as my "shape" I got a lot happier!
I kept it rather simple because I like that for an album cover. But also because more took all the attention away from the flags.

Hope y'all enjoy. :)

 
I used the whimsie scatter from Harmony by Bella Gypsy and then deconstructed the gold wire stars from it to make a bigger scatter with just stars

I'm so delighted you will make it the cover!!!!!! and it works great!!!!!

I always post my pages in the Speed Scrap album. Even though this is a Slow Scrap...
yup yup!!!!

I hope this follows the "challenge". I used one of the diamonds to create the larger diamond in the photo block. Thanks for getting us out of our boxes!

MY pleasure!!!!! and yes it works WONDERFULLY!!!!!!!!!!

Here is mine. I used bigfoot as my repeating element. I did have a desconstructed star sequin splatter around the upper yellow big foot - but it looked horrible and I made the decision to remove it. Sorry. But I did have fun and ya gotta say, I chose a unique element to repeat. ha ha ha

I missed the chat :( my mind isn't fully functional...so I just need a wee bit of help. Find a scatter in my stash, take a shape from the scatter and duplicate it at least 5 times?
 
@MrsPeel I was at work during the chat, so I wasn't able to attend. Hopefully I followed the instructions. Great idea, shape repetition. Thanks for hosting this. :-)

 
Hope this is what you were looking for. Moved one of the scatter circles onto the adventure word art and used one of the circles to make the frames. Thanks for the SS. Here's mine:
