    Following Directions Challenge
 
   I have been doing the 3 in a Row Challenge for a long time and I thought it might be time to do something different. I
   will give you a list of directions that you will need to follow.
 
1. Take a piece  double sided paper and cut it into 2
    pieces. These pieces can be whatever size you want them
    to be- ex. ( half, fourth, eighth, etc.)  Adhere the 2 sides
    together and this will be your background paper.
 
2. You may only use these colors on your layout- red, green,
    orange, teal, and white- any shade of these is
     allowed. This does not include your photos.
 
3. Use 6 or more pieces of patterned paper (no bigger than
    4" x 6").
 
4. Use a shape(s) on your layout- circle, square, octagon,
    triangle, hexagon, etc.  Must use at least 3 or more. Can
    be one kind or a mix of shapes.
 
5. Use 2 or more photos that are matted. Optional- Can use
    a double or triple mat. Cardstock can be used here.
 
6. Use 2 or more washi tape pieces anywhere on your
    layout.
 
7. Use mixed alphas for your title.

8. Use 2 or more chipboard pieces on your layout. May be
    naked or embellished.
 
9. Use 2 or more tags.
 
10. Buttons- Use as many as you want.

Below is my example.I can't wait to see what everyone creates.

What a fun challenge, Donna. You example is awesome!!

Very interesting!! Great sample!

Interesting Challenge!!! We'll see what works out:)
 

This sounds interesting and wonderful example, Donna!

I was reading your challenge and thought "This will be a mess."  Then I see you sample - HOLY CRAP - love it!! Now I really want to do this!! I just need to print out the directions and check them off as I go!! LOL

Oh I love this change up, Thanks for the challenge!

oh my goodness! such a challenge! thanks?!

What a great challenge.  Hope to get more layouts accomplished this month.  We shall see!

Awesome to change it up this month - I love it!

This is great. I like these kind of challenges

Love Love Love!!!! Especially that you included using Washi  I can't wait to do this one.

Awesome challenge!! And great layout!

Thinking about this challenge!!! Can I do a double page layout?  That's what I normally do.  Thanks!!!

What a great challenge! Will need to try this!

Honest to gosh, I couldn't sleep lately thinking about making this challenge work.  LOL  I listed what all I did in the gallery, and I have to say, I had the best time in a long time doing a challenge.   Only thing is, the colors really are teal, darker than they appear.  We had this discussion about phone pictures vs. camera pictures?  This is a Samsung Galaxy 5 photo.  Sucks.  So I apologize.  I will not do it again.  I did it out of laziness because a fellow scrapper wanted to see it when I was done, she found the directions intriguing when I read them to her.  So I sent it by phone to her .  EDITED the photo.  It looked so washed out.  Sorry.

 

Here is my take on the challenge, I had a lot of fun with this! I combined it with TV Challenge as one of my pictures shows a BIG Pez.
3. Use 6 or more pieces of patterned paper (no bigger than
    4" x 6"). (strips and banner pieces)
4. Use a shape(s) on your layout- I used 6 squares
5. Use 2 or more photos that are matted. Matted on Green Cardstock 
6. Use 2 or more washi tape pieces anywhere on your layout. I used orange polka dot washi to cover my 2 chipboard squares 
7. Use mixed alphas for your title. PEZ!
8. Use 2 or more chipboard pieces on your layout. May be naked or embellished. Washi covered chipboard squares 
9. Use 2 or more tags.I made my chipboard pieces into tags with my big bite and twine 
10. Buttons- Use as many as you want. 2 in two different shades of teal

I didn't think I could get this all on a page, but here it is, and not as cluttered as I thought it would be.

 

I stayed with more of the pink tones in the red family, but used all the shades you picked.
I have 6 patterned papers, several hearts for the shape, photos are triple matted, 2 washi tapes across the center, mixed alphas, 2 tags, chipboard letters and family sign, and buttons. Tough one, lol.
