Hello everyone and happy August! I can't believe this is the last month of summer for us in this part of the world. I am NOT ready for back to school, so I'm happy to avoid it with a little more blissful scrapping in my summer free time. This month I am bringing you the style challenge and my challenge to you is to use parts of 2 different templates to create your layout. I started this layout and loved everything about the clustered elements and photos together in Liz's template, but really wanted something busier in the background, so I used the scallops from Cheryl's template and I LOVE the combined result! So all you have to do is take parts from 2 different templates and combine them to make your layout. Here is my layout: I used the center section of Liz's Recyclables 64 and the awesome scallops from Cheryl's Bonny Borders. Please remember: Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the August 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, the first Friday of the month. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).
Bless you Karen, you are really challenging me this month! I typically avoid templates, LOL! I will see what I can do!
Ha ha ha! I love the cute gif! We don't call them challenges for nothing! I am confident that you can make another great piece of art with this challenge! Don't forget lots of designers offer monthly freebie templates too!
I used Designed by Soco Brothers and Sisters template and Designed by Soco Simply Clean No 7 template
I used these templates: Mommy's trio of templates17 Sahlin Studio, Oct17 Challenge template Fun challenge, thank you!
I often have trouble using even ONE template, so combing TWO was a real challenge for me. https://the-lilypad.com/forum/galleries/08-19_twotemplates_gangsallhere.401653/
Here's my page. I mixed up two templates from Lynn Grieveson's Messy Pockets Captured to get the correct amount - and size - of photos needed for my page.
I used the top of Scrapping with Liz My Life template 33 and the bottom of My Life 50 Links to templates in store: 50: https://the-lilypad.com/store/My-Life-Templates-13.html 33: https://the-lilypad.com/store/My-Life-Templates-9-2017.html Here is my result:
