Hi! I am hosting the progressive layout challenge this week! Each day, for the next 5 days, I will post a step for you to do/add to your LO! Then after those 5 days, I need you to upload your LO, and I will pick the winner(s) from there! Remember to have FUN!

Step 1:
Decide what kit to use (the You and Me kit is great) Pick 2 photos and place them where you want them on your page!

Step 2: Pick 4 papers, 2 solid and 2 patterned and place them how you want on your LO. You can crop, whatever you need to with the paper, just make sure there are 4!

Step 3: Find some stiching, a string (string, ribbon, etc), 3 flowers and a leaf (leaves). And place them on your LO! Try and focus on clustering around your photos!

Step 4: Create a title for your LO and place that title by (at least) one of your photos. Find some sort of filler (scattered beads, chicken wire, etc.) and place it behind (at least) one of your photos. Items can be duplicated, if needed!

Step 5 (final): Add 3-5 more elements (items can be duplicated) to your layout, add any shadows, styles, etc. and if you want any journaling!

The gallery is having problems, so post your Layouts in one of your galleries and then post the link to your LO here in this thread! Thanks for playing along! I will give everyone until Monday morning to post your link to your LO and then I will give out coupons!!!
