Hi and welcome to our October challenges! This month I am happy to bring you the Style challenge. We're going to play with a Tone on Tone style. As you can see in my example layout, I have a light background layered with paint, gesso, elements and a title all done in the same color as the background just different tones, shades or tints. I also have another area of the Tone on Tone style with the solid paper just under my photo, the paper leaves, flower and fave word art all done in tones/shades/tints of teal. We're not going to get all "color theory technical" on the definitions of tones, shades or tints - just layer some product of your choice using the same color family - pinks on pinks, purple on purple, etc to achieve the Tone on Tone style somewhere on your page. Then finish the rest of your page how your heart desires. I can't wait to see what you create! As always, please remember the monthly challenge rules: Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the October Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked, and to this thread. The Lilypad uses a percent system for our challenges; the number of challenges you participate in determines the store discount you will receive at the end of the month: 2 challenges = 10% off 4 challenges = 20% off 6 challenges = 30% off If you complete 7 challenges, you will receive a coupon for 30% off, plus you will be entered to win a $50 gift certificate from the Lilypad! The first seven challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the eighth challenge is the BYOC challenge, which is posted on BYOC release day. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).
i used the same colour elements over the different coloured painted sections, if that makes sense, to have a rainbow using the tone on tone concept - if you like this look like me, i think all the Bella Gypsy collections are well suited to rainbow tone on tone!
