BOTCT-Week 3

This year I'm taking part in the Battle Of The Creative Teams over at DigiScrapAddicts! I am representing Miss Tracie Stroud with 4 other fantastic team members! I am so excited to be able to represent Tracie and show the digi world her fantastic products!It is week 3 of the battle, and we had a new challenge this week! 

this weeks challenge is: 

For Challenge 3, you will be doing a monochromatic layout. Your team will need to pick a color and that color will be the main focus of your layout. You will all need to pick the SAME color. I will allow acrylic and metal as additional elements but other than that, you will need to focus on the color you have picked. You will be allowed to recolor as you need/want in order to fit the needs of this challenge. You will also need to pick 2 corners of your page to scrap on. It could be any 2 corners that you choose but your layout needs to be mainly in these 2 corners.

You have two options as your additional requirement for this challenge. You will either swap photos with your teammates (this could be just one teammate, you don't have to use 4 different photos from 4 different people) OR you will scrap about yourself. Your team has to pick 1 of these options and everyone has to do the same thing.

So, you know what that means...

PLEASE HELP MY TEAM BY VOTING!!!!!!

Click here to vote for us! Then click on Tracie Stroud's name...she is 2 names up from the bottom this week..and then push the vote key! It is THAT SIMPLE!!! 

and, because one particular person wrote on the forum that NO ONE's layouts were good this week and her's was the only deserving team to win, PLEASE, PLEASE..Get all your friends to vote too! It's just not nice to be mean in a competition that should be friendly! 

Oh..before I forget..

We chose the color pink and we scrapped about ourselves..

It IS pink..isn't it??? LOL but in honor of breast cancer awareness..I thought it was nice!

 

Speaking of Breast Cancer Awareness..and scrapping, IF you are in the mood to vote again, one of the stores that I am working for...Scrap Orchard, has their designers in the challenge too. Can I just say how totally amazed I was at these layouts?? I just want to share...please READ the layouts!

Let the Battle of the Creative Teams Begin!

This year I'm taking part in the Battle Of The Creative Teams over at DigiScrapAddicts! I am representing Miss Tracie Stroud with 4 other fantastic team members! I am so excited to be able to represent Tracie and show the digi world her fantastic products! We had our very first challenge due this week and it was a recipe challenge. Basically we get a formula  and can ONLY use whats in the recipe on our layout. There was 3 options to choose from, and our team chose Option 2..

10 hearts

9 flowers

8 stitches

7 buttons

6 frames

5 ribbons

4 papers

3 photos

2 alphas

1 font

In addition to the recipe part , we also had to use an equation of some sort. Our team had to decide on ONE equation and that had to be the SAME on all of our layouts. 

We came up with "This + That =" Of course, the answer could be different for all of us, but the equation HAD to be the same.

SOOO..all of that explanation to say...we NEED your vote! There are NO eliminations, but votes are counted through the entire 4 week competition and tallied at the end..those that receive the most votes get to proclaim themselves the WINNER of all the creative teams! It is a high honor..LOL

PLEASE HELP MY TEAM BY VOTING!!!!!!

Click here to vote for us! Then click on Tracie Stroud's name...she is towards the bottom of the list, and help a girl and her team out!

NOTE:

YOU MAY HAVE TO REGISTER TO VOTE..BUT IT IS QUICK AND SIMPLE and you will get NO junk mail..but save your info, because I will need your votes for the next THREE weeks!

THANK YOU!!!
