    Let's give this a shot - if I made it in time, I'd like to take the twist as well, please.

    Because the template is your choice, the only way I will know if you participated is if you link your layout in this thread. To qualify, post your layout to the gallery or hosting site of your choice* and then paste the image and link here by 7:00 am ET tomorrow to qualify for the drawing and by 7:00 pm ET tomorrow 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.

    THEME: CHOICES
    Below are two sets of instructions, pick one! When posting your layout to this thread indicate the instructions you chose (1st, 2nd, or 3rd).

    5. Have an even number of words in your main title.
    6. Use arrows somehow; element, paper, photo.
    7. Tuck an element(s) into your main title.

    The TWIST
    For those that comment in this thread before the start of the challenge (posts 2-27), you only have a third option.

    3rd Choice (Option for Twisters Only)
    A sample of a layout using these instructions can be found here.

    1. Have 2 or more photos.
    2. Use a neutral color background (blacks, whites, grays, browns).
    3. Have a cluster that contains three or more words/word tags/word art.
    4. Have a brad(s) AND a button(s)
    5. Use a number (written as a number) in your main title. Sample titles: "Arlo Turns 2", "B4 Cell Phones", "Go 2 Bed!"
    6. Use either string(s), ribbon(s) or bow(s) but not two or all three.
    7. Your photos cannot touch/overlap/stack.

    *Posting Notice: To upload your layout into the TLP gallery it must follow TLP gallery posting requirements.

    The sample layout follows the instructions - if it has it that means you can have it!

    I spent the week between the holidays volunteering at Oasis Sanctuary (over 800 parrots). I met Sydney the SWEETEST cockatiel ever and it made me think of you and your flock. I imagine you have some pretty awesome sanctuaries where you are at!!

    I had a twist & went with option 3. My "string" is on the tag in the cluster.

    Wow I haven't seen any cockatiels myself with this specific colouring before (the white faced with cinnamon/ 'normal' grey body). Its sad how many end up 'homeless' though - I read a story about someone surrendering like 100 budgies/ parakeets in one of the US states just before xmas. (Our flock nearly grew by one 'pied' ,the more yellow kind, around Oct/Nov but she was adopted while we were in the foyer of the RSPCA waiting to meet her. There's a pretty famous sanctuary the next state up here (called Currumbin), we visit 'bird& wildlife parks' regularly. But the sulphur crested cocky in the Oasis logo & various others, like galahs & corellas, are regular outside visitors en masse to our bird bath & waterdishes here, they'll also sit on our pool fence eating lemons from our tree - and given Steve (our yellow Bird) can reach 90 decibels when he makes his phone & siren noises, there's no way we'd be able to have a cocky or corella indoors.
    (And thanks for the tag, I forgot about MIS with taking DD to work before! I know, I will wear the cone of shame!)
