For step 1:
- chose at least one photo, but no more than 4
- chose 1 piece background paper (may be a print or solid), cut it to the size that your layout will be if it isn't already that size
- chose 1 stencil
- chose 1 stamp set
- if you would like to mat your photos with any color of cardstock, do it now. I printed mine with a white border, that is fine too. Unmatted photos are also fine. (I trimmed my white border down after I took the photo, you should trim it now if you think you will want to)
Here is my example:
Rules:
- Open to layouts and art/travelers journal pages, can be any theme or subject you would like
- May be combined with one other challenge that allows combining but not until the final step
- Do not add or do anything other than what is listed here, you will have plenty of opportunities to add more things
- Do not save your spot of edit your post. If you make a mistake, just post again correctly.
- This step is due next Thursday January 16 at midnight
- Digital is fine, but you might want the ability to print something out at some point
- Each step completed on time will get you one entry. One randomly selected winner will receive an ACOT $5 GC. If there is a lot of participation, there may be a second winner. Only people who complete step 5 will be eligible, but if you are late on an earlier step you are still eligible, you just won't get credit for that step.
- IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, ASK ON THIS THREAD!
That's what I love about the progressive challenge - you just have to step out in faith and commit to your supplies
