TEXTures Inspiration


Julie (aka Mom) took our September challenge very seriously and added a ton of cool textures to this fabulous mini book she made!  She's used things like cork, washi tape, crackle paint, burlap, text stamps & more to make it, there's so many great details!  Watch our other blog for a post with more photos very soon!

You don't have to do it all to play along, though- just add at least one element of TEXT (book print/text pattern) and one element of TEXTURE (non-paper) to your project and you qualify!  There's still 4 days to join us, so we look forward to seeing your projects!   You can win a a surprise 6x6 pad of paper that includes at least one text print patten and a $10 gift certificate for the online store

It's hard to believe we're already half way through September! I'm back today with a reminder about our current challenge: TEXTures! Create a project that includes a book print/text pattern and at least one textural or dimensional (non paper) element.
Here's a fab layout DT member Sarah created:
You can read all about it on her blog! Can't wait to see what you create for this challenge :)

The challenge is open until the end of the month- hope you'll play along!

September: TEXTures

Introducing our September Seriously Creative Challenge: TEXTures!  Create a project that includes a book print/text pattern and at least one textural or dimensional (non paper) element.

Since September starts with a long weekend (yay!) we'll be bringing you lots of inspiration later on... but here's a bit to start with!  Roxy made this perfectly grungy layout about her dog's bad habits- it's full of book print and texture!

Janet put together this sweet card using a new in the store stamp from Sweet Pea Stamp- the text element is beautifully subtle in the background!


3/4 of the projects Tara & Julie made for our September SOTM sample fit this challenge perfectly as well!  Check them out on our other blog!

What are you playing for? 

Besides the fun of it?  Our random winner this month will take home a surprise 6x6 pad of paper that includes at least one text print patten and a $10 gift certificate for the online store
