Freebie is based on the same “applelicious” theme as in the sample above

This month, designer Katie Castillo has shared an adorable 5 x7 brag book page based on her scrumptious “Applelicious” line of designs.

The Challenge:

Make 3 layouts with Katie’s freebie page.
•For the first page, pop in the perfect photos, but don’t change anything else (you can add journaling if you wish).
•For the second page, using the same photos, rearrange the embellishments and other elements to layout the page in a different way.
•For your third page, choose new photos, and alter the colors of the page (you can rearrange the items on this one or leave Katie’s layout intact).

Your layout MUST ONLY consist of things made with these shapes….Nothing else from the outside except for the backgrounds you use with the shapes….(read the challenge thread for the full challenge)

I will have a surprise for everyone who participates and of course, a new flair button.”

Weekly Challenge – October 3, 2010 – by Michelle McCoy

“I want to take you out of your comfort zone and dare you to do some thing a little different this week. This week’s challenge is about papers.

You can create your own backgrounds by using different papers (eg as stripes, curves etc), cut out shapes to use as embellishments or mats. Layer them on top of each other and play with the blending modes, change the hue or recolor them completely.

Your challenge this week is to create a layout usingc(at least) 10 different papers. You may use a paper more than once but there must be 10 different ones used (if you recolor a paper it counts as a new one). You must also use at least 3 items from this mini kit….

Post your layout in the designer challenges in the gallery and then copy and paste the second link under your layout and paste it here for all to see…

At the end of the week, I will pick two winers to receive a prize from me…BUT everyone will receive a new Flair Button….Let’s see what you come up with…:p”
