Hello my friends! Can you believe the year is officially half way over?? I feel like time is just speeding by! Hopefully, it isn't going by to fast and HOPEFULLY I can help inspire you to pause a moment and join in on this challenge with me!
For July, our challenge will be to create a Rachel Designer Mash Up BUT with a twist:
Here's a layout created by me:
I used Rachel's Be Kind and mashed it up with Natali Design's Summer Sunshine. I chose these 2 because their colors are contrasting and almost opposite each other on the color wheel. Rachel's kit is moodier with some rain & grunge and Natali's is bright with sunshine.
I used a total of 20 elements/papers by Rachel: journaling strip x 2, flowers x5, foliage x 1, bird x 1, clouds x2, messy thread x1, rainbow x1, rain drops x 5, paper piece x 1. paper hole overlay x1
I used a total of 17 elements/papers by Natali Design: waterdrops x2, window frame overlay x 1, balloons x2, stamp line overlay x2, flowers x 3, blackberry x1, raffia/wheat grass x1, bow x1, string x1, scatter x1, background paper x1

For July, our challenge will be to create a Rachel Designer Mash Up BUT with a twist:
- at least 50% of your layout should consist of Rachel's Designs that are currently available in her Oscraps Shop and the remaining should be from a Designer here at Oscraps, (example: if your layout has 10 layers, then at least 5 layers has to be Rachel's Designs and the other remaining layers from a Designer of your choice from Oscraps).
- Here's the twist: The designs selected should create an opposite/contrasting effect: (example: if one designer has a rainy themed kit you use, then the contrasting designs should be sunshine; Happy with sad; mixed media with traditional; messy with clean; light and dark, etc).
- it is preferred that the layout is created with as close to a 50/50 designer split as possible but there is room to change the dynamics of the split a little as long as at least half of the layout is using Rachel’s Designs that are currently available here at Oscraps
- for the layout to be eligible for the coupon drawing: list the total number of elements/papers used from each designer is required (ex: Rachel Jefferies Designs: 1 paper, 3 flowers, 2 stamps, etc; Scrap Designer of your Choice: 2 blended papers and 2 leaves, 1 ribbon, 1 word strip, etc)
- Use of a template is acceptable, if the template includes a paper or embellishments (such as threads, stitches, stamps etc.) please note these will need to be included when counting your layers for the relevant designer.
- Collabs are NOT permitted for this challenge.
