January Challenge by Laurie B.


Reader Laurie submitted this layout for the January New Challenge.  She said, "Good morning,
Attached please find my challenge I completed for the “new” challenge.

For my challenge I chose pictures of my hubby and I taken a few years back at a New England Patriot’s game we went to. The pictures are in a store nearby the stadium. We sat in a luxury box and we thought we were all that, and quickly realized we are diehard fans and need to be in the stands with the other diehard fans. We did manager to have a great time!!

I also used a “new” technique on this page, I used glimmer mist. I have had this forever and couldn’t figure out what layout I should use it on. I thought about these pictures and figured if I use white cardstock you would be able to see the glimmer mist. It worked well and I will use this more often (thank you for making me get this out!!).

I cut the banner using the design studio and welded it together, I used the Sports Mania cartridge for that. George and the Basic Shapes for my letters and everything else is from my stash!!


Thanks for an awesome blog and fantastic challenges!!!


Best regards,


Laurie

    Way to be brave! I once *watched* a lady use glimmer mist at a crop but that's as close as I've come to using it! Glad you were able to use something new and dip into the stash for your great layout! Thanks for playing!
