ACOT Message Board

First of all, lets give Carolyn/cajenkins81 a big round of applause for being this month's GD!! I am so very excited for her!

With that said, I'll be hosting the GD challenge this month.

Here's the basic rules: Check out Carolyn's AMAZING Galleryand pick one to scraplift. Please tell me which one you lifted, and then your own version.

All paper, digi, cards and crafts are welcomed. Due December 31st, 11:59PM CST. I will create a Gallery spot for it shortly. You can post your layouts in the gallery or here if you perfer. I will check both.

Random.org will select a winner to receive a $5 GC to ACOT!

You may combine this with one other December Challenge, if that challenge allows it.
You may submit more than one project to this challenge. Your name counts once per project (so for example, if you submit two layouts, you get two entries; if you submit three layouts, you get three entries, and so forth.)

Any questions, just ask me. And always, ALWAYS HAVE FUN!

When I saw that Carolyn was going to be the GD, I KNEW exactly which layout I wanted to scraplift, as I have had this one saved. Its her "Summer FUN" layout:



I fell in love with this layout the moment she posted it. The placement of photos, the use of pattern paper at a slant, the banner, the words, the washi - so here is what I came up with:

awwwww!! Thank you soOOo much! I'm extremely honored by your kind words about my layout! (especially since it was an original layout design by me hehe). I LOVE how you copied it down to the title and all, and your pictures really are "fun" so the layout works nicely. So glad you were able to find inspiration Man, this GD stuff is pretty neat and exciting! lol. And man, you're fast!!
