    January 6: Photoless

    Welcome to day 6 of MOC 2023!

    For today’s challenge you will have a Font, an Alpha or Word Art take center stage in your layout.
    There is a little twist to the challenge - you will be creating a layout without any photos! (Think of this like a greeting card, or a piece of wall art.)
    For the challenge you can use any font, TLP alpha or word art and decorate it in a creative and unique way.

    Below I have collected some examples on my Pinterest board... Aren't they gorgeous?

    If you use a word art, you don’t need to decorate every word … just one letter or one word … whatever you prefer.

    In the above examples, the alpha or letters in the word art are part of the design. Some flowers are twisted around the letter (or the word art) and incorporated into a flowery design. (Your design doesn't have to be flowery of course.)

    For today’s MOC challenge the font, TLP alpha or word art you choose, needs to be a part of your design. It shouldn't be just another element sitting on the page. Rather, use elements to actually decorate your font, alpha or word art not just the surrounding page.

    Challenge guidelines:
    -Scrap a PHOTOLESS page, using and decorating a font, TLP alpha or word art using the guidelines discussed above.
    -Your page can be any size you wish.
    Your page must be a new page in order to count for the Month of Challenges. Your page must be posted in three places:

    1.Uploaded to the TLP Gallery (not an outside hosting site).
    2.Posted in your page thread you created in the MOC Layouts Folder. You should have one post per completed challenge page. If you complete all 31 challenges, your thread should contain 31 posts. Please do not comment in the participants’ page threads so we can keep them clean.
    3.Posted in this thread. People can comment here if they wish.
    Your page must contain Lilypad product (pages with photos and font only do not count). Product from other stores will not be allowed for MOC; your pages must contain 100% Lilypad product (current or retired product from designers or guest designers presently selling at The Lilypad)

    I used a couple words that I picked from my card deck for first of year… Acceptance & Renewal. I love these water color alphas from the Bright Side Collab.

    I love a challenge that tests my Photoshop skills. Not perfectly executed, but I sure enjoyed the process and problem solving. Fantastic challenge, Marijke!
