March Double Page Challenge - Part 1
Posted: Fri Feb 28, 2025 5:20 pm
Hello! I'm going to be doing something a little different this month. The theme will be "three" for March, so this will take place in 3 parts. It's a progressive challenge, so I've cleared this with Louise (traveler). But it won't be nearly as involved as Louise's. It will be very much follow-the-instructions. Also, I'd like to thank Stacy (stinkerbelle) for the idea for this challenge (It will become clearer in part 2). There will also be 3 prizes, and I'm going to give you the option of completing 2 single page layouts instead of a double, so I hope some of you who don't normally do 2-pagers will play along too.
The steps to this challenge should be easy to follow, and you're only going to need 2 sheets of cardstock and one 12x12 sheet of double-sided paper. I'm going to tell you that the sketch I will be using has 6 photos: 3 horizontal (4x6), 2 vertical (4x6), and 1 square (4x4), but this can be adjusted for what you want to do.
So for Part 1, your assignment is to take a picture of your 2 sheets of cardstock and the double-sided paper you choose and post it here. If you absolutely do not own any double-sided papers (or want to use something older that was only printed on one side), 2 single sheets will be allowed. But don't pick 2 individual sides from 2 double-sided papers -- it's more fun to play along! For you 8.5x11 folks, I think it'll work if your patterned paper is 8.5" square. That's it! This step will be due Friday March 7. Like Louise's challenges, I'll give a point for each step completed before the deadline, so you will have 3 entries if you complete each by the deadline. If you miss a deadline, you can do the next step but just won't get the point for the previous part.
Here are my papers:
