Do you want to be a GUEST DESIGNER?

Amanda and Lori, have created this awesome challenge for the next guest designer at SCRAP THAT!... TO CREATE YOUR OWN KIT!

Here are some details:

• it cannot be an already made up kit...you MUST put this kit together yourself!! We want to see your creative side!

In your kit, you must have the following:
1. 4 pattern papers
2. 2 cardstock
3. 4 different embellishments [flowers, buttons, ribbon, brads, eyelets, Woolies, etc.]
4. And because it is Ovarian Cancer month, you MUST have some TEAL and YELLOW in your kit somewhere

Next task, find a sketch [or email Amanda and she can get you some!] and create a layout {no smaller than 8-1/2x11} or a card set {card set = at least 3 cards} from your sketch AND you must use specific technique {embossing, paper piecing, etc.}.

You must have your entry posted in the gallery and linked here by September 25th MIDNIGHT EST. {My 5th anniversary!} The winner will be determined by the Design Team and will be informed of the guest spot by September 30th.


How exciting is that! I can't wait to see what kits you create, and what you create from your kit! Have fun everyone! Be sure to check out the forum for any more details or questions you might have!
