For March, 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 layout should represent your current season. I am purposely leaving this subjective. The season can represent Spring, Fall, Winter, Summer or it can a season of life that you are in etc. It really is based on your definition of a season.
- 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
- 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) and indicate which season is being represented (i.e. fall, winter, summer, spring, season of life, 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.
