In my best musical voice....

"Hey good-lookin,
Whatcha got cookin? How's about cookin somethin' up with me?"
Somethin' scrappin' that is... hehe

Today your challenge is to cook up a layout following my MOC recipe.
  1. Start with 1 solid paper for your background. It must be a solid. It can have texture but no patterns.
  2. Add 1 BIG photo - NO OTHER PHOTOS ALLOWED. It must take up at least 1/2 of your page. It can be bigger, but I must still be able to see some of the solid background paper.
  3. Add 1 or more shape(s) (rectangles, squares, circles, triangles, hexagons, scallops, chevrons) to your layout and fill the shape(s) with solid or pattern paper as desired. These can be paper layers, but I must still be able to see the solid background.
  4. Spice it up by adding 1 or more word art(s) to your layout.
  5. Sprinkle on ONLY 1 scatter. (FYI: Paint is NOT a scatter).
  6. Top off your layout with 3 or more elements in addition to what you have already added, but remember you can ONLY have 1 scatter and 1 photo TOTAL on your layout.
  7. Finish your layout to taste with shadowing, journaling, a date or an awesome title. These are all optional. Add what you want from what's listed in this step, but NOTHING ELSE can be added!

Solid Bg paper: white; 1 big photo; 4 hexagon shapes; word art (for title) and word strip; 1 star scatter; 3+ elements: ampersand, flower, button, foliage, bow; Finish work: shadowing and date

And that's it! To recap:
1. Solid background - must still be able to see some of it when your layout is complete.
2. 1 Big Photo - NO OTHER PHOTOS ALLOWED
3. 1 or more shapes of your choice
4. 1 or more word arts
5. 1 scatter ONLY
6. 3 or more elements of your choice - The shapes, word art and scatter do NOT count as one of your 3 elements.
7. Shadow, journal, date or title if you want - NOTHING ELSE PLEASE!

Please remember the standard MOC guidelines: Your page must be a new page in order to count for the Month of Challenges. Your page must be posted in three places:
  1. Uploaded to the TLP Gallery (not an outside hosting site).
  2. Posted in your page layout thread you created in the MOC Layouts Folder. You should have one post per completed challenge page. If you complete all 31 challenges, your thread should contain 31 posts. Please do not comment in the participants’ page threads so we can keep them clean.
  3. Posted in this thread. People can comment here if they wish.
Pages must contain at least 75% current Lilypad product (currently for sale in the store from either permanent designers or guest designers).

Thanks for playing along, I can't wait to see what y'all have cooked up with this recipe!

**************************************************************
I will be hosting this recipe challenge as a speed scrap on Thursday, January 18th @ 2 pm EST/11 am PST and can answer additional questions during that time.

Thanks in advance to everyone who lists what they used for each step. It makes checking layouts so much easier for me. :heartlub

Strips of paper are considered shapes in step 3.

Yes, paint counts as an element. If you use paint as an element, please tell me. I'm having a hard time telling how many paints people are using. THANKS!

Yes, you can use 20+ elements or as many elements as you would like to use. Please just make sure you ONLY use 1 scatter and meet the other requirements.

If you are a minimal scrapper, please make sure you have at least 3 elements IN ADDITION to the paper shapes, word art and only 1 scatter required in steps 3-5.

YAY! I checked with the boss and yes you can use the same layout to count for both the MOC challenge and the speed scrap. However, you MUST ATTEND the speed scrap chat portion and post your layout (meeting all the requirements) in the speed scrap thread by the deadline in order to get the speed scrap participation prize. Hope to see ya'll at the speed scrap today.
