For the last challenge, today, I am sticking with the "old school" theme. (You thought I forgot, didn't you? ) One of the things I did on every layout in the 1990's (thanks to Creative Memories) was to use a white background for my layout. So, I challenge you to create a layout with a primarily white background. You can embellish the background with paints, mists, stamps, etc., but 50% of the background must be white. I think this forces you to focus on those photos!
Here are a couple of my CM-style layouts for your inspiration (or amusement). Sorry they are a bit blurry...I was not good at photographing or scanning them in 2003...
You have until midnight, Monday, July 22nd to upload your layout into the gallery spot I've provided.
Must be a new layout.
CANNOT be combined with other challenges, except for those requiring multiple prompts throughout the month.

This one should be easy for me. I do a good percentage of my layouts on a white background
Re: MMC - July 15 - Challenge #3
I really should do more on white, it's like you said - it places more focus on the photos. Great idea.
