CLOSED- SlowScrap-Technique- 1 hour & 20 minu +or _ 04/27- CLOSED

I'm at work but will try to log into the chat on my phone just to lurk (since I do have to actually work).

 

Same....will try to be at chat!!!!

 

I swear I only started after the scrap and can't believe how fast this was done. And on top of that: Even my son thinks it's cool (a first!).
1 photo, five papers including the bg, more than 3 elements (counting all the days of the week) and 1 stitching, number in the title, splatters.

 

EEk! I forgot all about the chat! I was out having a long lunch with a friend and missed the fun. I'll be sure to do a page, though!

 

Thank you for the inspiration Cynthia!

 

what was the technique? or is this just a recipe? I had to go pick our car from the service center.

 

Wonderful layouts so far. Thanks for the fun chat. Here's mine:

 

@MrsPeel @berniek
We talked in the chat about a criss cross loom style template.. Here is a simple one I did.. included are the PSD, Tiff & PNGs https://www.dropbox.com/sh/aw9hojl5kzhprys/AAB9fA3DCNT600G4-LFPbJnZa?dl=0



I will leave the file up until 5/5/2017 and then will remove from my drop box. Enjoy!

Here is my sample... [I removed the top bottom & 2 sides extra strips as I did not want them.]

 

Would like to see this in use! I can't picture it at all. I am sorry I couldn't come to the chat. Maybe the discussion would have helped me out.

 

Ok Christa...I can't imagine this at all either. I hope you have an image you've done or Will Do! no pressure...lol

 

bwahaha - i think i need this disclaimer in my siggy!
I'm hoping to get something done for this too - fingers crossed!

 

Here is mine:



@cfile Christa, THANK YOU for the weave template.

 

thank you Christa for the template! thank you Cynthia for the chat and inspiration!
here is my page

 

@MrsPeel Miss Cynthia- I would love if you could post the inspiration layouts you had posted in the chat- I'm just getting to my layout now- but having a tough time remembering them!

 

I was working through the chat... but glad I got to do the slow scrap. Working through a pile of old photos... This is my youngest's 5th Birthday.
1. 1- Minimum 1- Maximum 4 photos - I went with 1.
2. 4 Papers can be patterned, solids or a mixture of both, in any shape or form in the page. Background plus clipped to hearts.
3. 3 Elements, one fastener (staple, stitches, screw, pin) so minimum 4 Elements, you can add more if you wish. Tiny brad on the photo is my fastener, also cake flare, bead scatter, accordion flower.
4. There needs to be a number in your page- NOT the date- but can be part of your tittle- it has to be from an alpha, and visible- medium or large. Yup!
5. Use paints, you can use splatters ,or can if you wish make a border with them. Yup.
6. You can have a tittle (optional) I'll pass.
7. One line of journaling at least- one minimum, you can add more if you wish- Yup!

 

Okey dokey- so I modified Christa's template (THANKS so much Christa! You did all the hard work for me! ) to get the paper weaving look! I love how this turned out- I will totally do this again!

1. 1 photo
2. 4 Papers (I did more- hope that's okay?) I like papers!
3. 3 Elements, one fastener (staple, stitches, screw, pin) so minimum 4 Elements, you can add more if you wish. 2 buttons, heart, pom flower, word art, banner, sequins, stars
4. There needs to be a number in your page- Large 5 stencil behind photo for May
5. Use paints, you can use splatters ,or can if you wish make a border with them.. background paints/splatters
6. You can have a tittle (optional) Love This Smile
7. One line of journaling Hayden's Spring Soccer Pic!

 

Wish I could have been at the Chat, but the instructions work real well! Thanks, @MrsPeel !

 

Thanks for the fun chat and steps Cynthia!! Love your template Christa!! Great work!! Thanks!!
here's my LO. Just now getting it done. ACK it's after 1am PST. It takes me forever lately. I told Audrey (my friend in the LO) at 5:30pm that I was almost done and I wasn't going to change anything major. Yikes. I lied apparently.
