I hope you have as much fun packing your bag, as I had coming up with this challenge. :)

Here is my example:  

Image
For my own bag (I might have had an unfair advantage, but I did answer my questions truthfully. ;) )
I ended up having to use 5 or more photos, only cardstock, start with papers, then photos, and embellishments, stickers, handwritten journaling, alphas, bling, and flowers, fussy cut (the hearts are from a paper), punches (the holes punched in the cardstock), pastels, and tags as my bonus item.

Rules:
1.  You have until midnight EST, May 10th to post your layout in the gallery spot I have created.  Any questions, please ask!
2.  Of course, share your layout back here, too, but I will be drawing the random winner from entries in the gallery spot.
3.  Must be a new layout.
4.  Cannot be combined with any other challenges except for the 25 Item Challenge.
5. Challenge is open to layouts in paper, digi, and hybrid form.

The wonderful prize for this challenge is a Fairy Garden Collection and Tote sponsored by Doodlebug!

Re: Art_Teacher's Pack Your Bag Recipe Challenge
I should have figured you'd make us go the opposite.  NO pattern paper???  I think I might rather give up tea and cheese. 
Super fun and very creative with CHALLENGE being the right word.  (I guess turnabout is fair play given I did the same to many with my challenges - HA HA)

Holding my place along with reminder of what my choices translate to
  • 3 photos
  • only cardstock
  • choose your sketch or layout inspiration first, then select photos, papers, and embellishments 
  • handwrite your title/journaling
  • alphas (thank you)
  • bling (you're killin' me, Laura!)
  • fussy cut or decorative scissors
  • stamps
  • punches
  • bright colors (good thing I just dared myself to get some Vicki Boutin - oh yeah - I can't use that....)
  • Bonus:  Silhouette Cameo
  • Bonus:  Tags

Right?  The nerve - she gave me NO pattern paper but I have to use Bling.  HA HA HA    Book me on the next space shuttle cuz I am way out of my normal orbit.  But I think it is awesome as it is going to make me pull out neglected tools and techniques to bling up that cardstock.  WOW - I even managed t usae the word "bling".  Does that count?

I think you forgot to add the requirement of "if you usually do 12x12 do this one as a 3x3 but still squeeze in three photos, a teradactyl, and a title in ancient greek".  HA HA   (we love you!)

My 15 year old granddaughter...she was checking to see how I was doing on layouts...
Playing too many games!  LOL!

Did I say I hated buttons, cardstock plain, punches and alphas.  LOL!!!!!!!!!  I will figure it out though!
 Did you try the 80's Bands yet?  If not, try it!   :greenlol:
