Chapter four

JANUARY

Ringing in the New Year in Cherryland was a sight to behold. Alas, each of the princesses of course celebrated in her own way. The king and queen smiled upon their daughters as they went out for their parties, and they returned quite happy the next morning, New Year's Day – the first day of 2013 in not only Cherryland, but all the world.
So of course, as parents, they asked the girls about their experiences. Princess Maraschino said she really enjoyed the party with her friends, and they had all played several games. Princess SourCherry said they danced the night away at hers, in a sparkling new dress.
SO. . . . in honor of Princess Maraschino, if you choose, play a game – and this is it: Use the numbers – two, zero, one, and three. You must use two of one of the following items, NONE of one of the items, one PHOTO, and three of another item. Your choice as to what you choose to skip, but you have three of your choice – and two of the other. One must be skipped.
Paper, embellishments, journaling on the computer.
Princess Maraschino will expect questions so let me go a bit deeper with it. If you choose to do paper – which is obviously a must – you must use either two sheets or three.
Embellishments – you can pass on, or use two or three of them – whichever you don't use in your paper selection. In other words, if you used two sheets of paper, you need to use three of the embellishments or pass on embellishments.
Now here is the tricky part. YOU MAY handwrite journaling – that's your "Zero" – it's the computer you can't use!! But if you insist on using the computer- then you have to skip one of the others, and journal in two or three places with your computer.

Bottom line – you have to have something "2", something "0", "1" PHOTO, and something "3" – 2013.
Now we KNOW our dear Princess SourCherry does things the easy way – as always. She says "Yeah, right, I got a new dress, remember??" So your challenge if you follow Princess Sour Cherry? ANYTHING NEW that you got for Christmas needs to be on a layout – anything!! It can be an image from a new Cricut, down to a sticker from a sticker pack, or a brad in a kit. ANYTHING – that you got on Christmas as a gift. Even from one of the December envies exchange!

This will be opened until midnight EST on January 31st . Any medium (digital, hybrid, paper) is fine, and MAY be combined with another challenge. Layouts, cards, altered project – is accepted in Cherry Land. I will award a $5 prize to the winner pulled at random.

Glad you like the challenge gals. I figured the 2-0-1-3 was a little tough, but then there IS an easier way to do it by using a gift item instead! Enjoy!

Well I was all excited about the number game until I reread it and got to the 1 photo part - rarely if ever do that. So... I guess it's the other, and I got nothing scrappy for Christmas so I'll have to be creative!

So I didn't get anything scrappy for Christmas. Which is really telling, since everyone in my family knows that is my only hobby (and they are always in layouts). Anyway, what if we used GCs to buy our new scrappy stuff? Can we use that? I got a GC and bought some new COPICS, which means I would have to do another pp layout or card! Hehehehe.

I rarely do that either - one photo - but maybe you took one that you want to enlarge? Would that help you? But hey, do the other one if you wish, and yes, you can get creative, too!!

I am going the easy way out like Princess Sour Cherry. ;) I got Echo Park's For the Record 2 collection for Christmas, so I used that for this layout. (In fact, I got it for Christmas twice! Once from my mother and once from my sister because they both knew I wanted it.)

I combined this with the scraplift yourself challenge.

Deanna, it looks to me like you got a lot of nice "toys" from Santa this year - and love that paper you used - soft and not imposing on the photos. Very nicely done!

I'm a fan of that Echo Park line as well!! I love the masculine feel you put onto it - And I really don't think it's the easy way - more like "I need to breathe after a busy season" - and great idea to do it with scraplifting yourself - two entries for your work!!
