I got this piece of scrapbooking paper at a garage sale once, really liking it but not quite sure what to do with it, as I thought it overpowered the page. But I really like how the pictures of my daughter still draw the eye, so I think it turned out really well in the end.
This is how I took the challenge (below) on:
The big leap? Letting my daughter loose in the kitchen. I like control; I don't like messes, so for me, this was a big deal. It was also a big leap for her, as she had never baked and iced a cake before!
J - one daughter....that is the purpose of the page
U - a little journaling at the bottom, with a "Hey Cupcake!" title (which I think is pretty clever given the focus of the page)
M - my page is interactive in two ways (neither is technically moving on the photo, but here I think that two halves make a whole ;)---there is motion in the photo of my daughter icing the cake, and the page makes you want to touch it with all the texture (glitter, ribbon, roughed up edges etc.)
P - rubons are my product....I have lots and I hardly ever use them.
The challenge for this page was to create a page that tells the story of a big leap (JUMP) you took.
J - Just ONE. Chose some element on your page to highlight, but make sure there is only one (DSP, photo, color, button, flower, whatever you choose).
U - Unravel the details of your story in journaling. Bonus points for creating a clever title!
M - Movable element. Leap and jump both involve motion, right? Make your page interactive in some way.
P - Product alert! Choose a product, tool, or embellishment that you don't use often and remind yourself why you loved it enough to buy it!
