Make It Snappy (MIS) | April 4th @ 7 pm ET | Scrapping with Liz

The Template MIS with a Twist
(to participate in the TWIST just comment in this thread before the MIS starts and then complete the MIS, easy peasy!)


​

Instructions
Because the template is your choice, the only way I will know if you participated is if you link your layout in this thread or within the SwL Group Facebook Album. To qualify, post your layout to the gallery or hosting site of your choice* and then paste the image and link here by 8:15 pm ET tonight to qualify for the drawing and by 7:00 pm ET tomorrow (05 APR 2020) to qualify for the free template. You can make your layout yours; add items and design as you like, as long as, you follow the instructions below. Don't forget to shadow.

Theme: The Eye Test "Which is Better, 1 or 2?"
There are two layout samples, each instruction will have a choice - a choice between Sample 1 and Sample 2. For each instruction, pick which you like better and scrap it! You can have a mix of Sample 1 and Sample 2; meaning you don't have to say with the same layout for all five instructions.

NOTE: THE INFO IN () IS FOR REFERENCE ONLY AND IS NOT INSTRUCTIONS - BASICALLY FOR EACH INSTRUCTION CHOOSE EITHER BLUE OR PINK​

1. Have two photos-all layouts, for those two pictures either have them S1: contain a single subject that is non-human (a dog) OR S2: contain multiple subjects all human (a crowd waiting in line).

2. For the two photos, S1: mat them on a common mat (newspaper mat) OR S2: place a frame around them (yellow dot postage frame).

3. For the background papers have S1: two large pattern papers stacked with a narrow border showing of the bottom paper all around the page (green horizontal stripe on top of dog paw bowl squares) OR S2: have multiple patterned papers peeking in from both the top and bottom of the page with a solid paper background (pink pattern, purple pattern and multiple color circles on top of gray-white background).

4. Have a single fleece/felt flower-all layouts, for that flower make it S1: a neutral color (gray) OR S2: a bright color (turquoise/teal).

5. Button it up or not, S1: have a button on the side of one of the photos (light blue with bow) OR S2: do not use any buttons.

INSTRUCTIONS (alternative format if you find the above confusing)
Pick either A or B for each instruction...

1A. Have two photos, those photos should contain a single subject that is non-human.
1B. Have two photos, those photos should contain multiple subjects all human.

2A. For the two photos, mat them on a common mat.

New to the challenge, here are some additional details: The Twist can be many things: extra time, ability to delete/change an instruction, etc. I will post the instructions at the top of the thread and at the end of thread at the start of the MIS. For the first part, you will have until 8:15 pm ET to complete the layout using the five (5) instructions plus the Twist (to get the Twist just comment in this thread before the start of the challenge; unless specified the comment can be anything - "Hi!" works). All those that complete the layout per instructions and post by 8:15 ET (75 minutes later) will qualify; one layout from the qualifying layouts will win $10 to Liz's store.

For all participants that complete a qualifying layout in the first or second half, will receive the free template. If you are new to posting layouts at TLP, please give your self extra time to do so.
