I definately got LOTS of stuff done during the second day of the Angels and Demons crop - even with having my grandkids come over and doing a bit of babysitting!! It was a pretty jam packed day I have to say. Again, having all the challenges certainly helps get a lot of things done!
The first challenge was DARK, and it was due for 1:00 pm, so I had the morning to work on it. My bestie crafty pal Tricia and I had decided to work on a layout with the same theme. We wanted to use photos of the autogaphed books we got by JR Ward, but we didn't want to know what the other was doing - in order to see how close or different our pages would be using the same photos and inspriation! We did really amazing if I do say so myself - but we decided to NEVER do this again, as it was too hard to do without asking the others opinion as we went. LOL
This is how my pages came out
And this is Tricia's pages
Next up was the LIGHT challenge, and I got inspired for this one with by the die cut wings we got in our goodie bag. I knew I had the photo of my siblings and I in our angel costumes from when we were little and I knew the page would be great! I really love this one that is for sure. I did however have a bit of an issue with this one. I didn't realize till it was pointed out to me this morning that I spelled the word PERFECT wrong! I was able to come up with a fix that actually almost looks like it was on purpose. Or at least that is the story I am going to stick with.
Now it was time for the first make n take for the day. This one was a layout - and a super creative one at that. I knew I had perfect Halloween photos of my neices to use for this layout so was excited to do it. Love how it came out!!
Then it was time for another challenge. This time it was ADD DIMENSION, and I had the perfect little voodoo dolls that I got from Treasured Memories that I knew I wanted to use. I also got an extra sheet of custom paper in my goodie bag so thought it would work great with the voodoo dolls and some cool paper I found in my stash. I ended up making a set of cards with all those supplies for this challenge.
After this challenge was another one - this time it was to add a BORDER. We got a couple more great die cuts in our goodie bag, so used them to do a layout with the matching photo of my oldest niece to the one I used on the make n take with my youngest niece. Another fun layout for sure.
Once I took a break for supper and to help my hubby out with our grandkids, it was time for the second make n take of the day. This one was another super cute die cut. Not sure what I will end up using it for/on, but I love it nonetheless!
The last challenge of the crop was to do something GEOMETRIC. I had an idea to do another layout for my youngest nieces grad album, but first off I wanted to use up the other paper we got in our goodie bags. I was going to make ATC's with it, but the individual sections of the paper were too big for that. I thought up an idea for a layout and I was gluing down the last piece of paper before I realized that it actually worked for the challenge. Go figure! LOL
I used these pages for my challenge project, but I still wanted to do a layout using Taryn's photo. So basically I did two geometric challenge projects (though I only put my name in once).
It was a really great day - I even won ANOTHER door prize, which never happens to me. I had so much fun hanging out virtually with all my crafty peeps. And now that my grandkids have gone home I can do more crafting. So till next time, stay safe and stay crafty my peeps!
