Challenge: Using a Large Title




Thank you so much to those who played along with my last Recipe Challenge!!  Recipe challenges are my favorite!  They are easy, fun and take all of the "guesswork" about what to use out of the equation!

Check out all of the lovely projects.  I love how everyone has a different take on the recipe even though the same types of products are used!!  

(Listed from left to right)


My next challenge for you is to use a large title on your project.  My layout below all came about because of the three words "Yes You Can".  I hear these words in Pure Barre all of the time and they usually resonate with me all day long.  One day when I was feeling crafty, I thought about allllll the other things I should be doing (think: laundry, cleaning, planning dinner).  My kids were in preschool and my husband was out of town.  I had the house all to myself and all I really wanted to do was create (which is all I really ever want to do).  So I thought to myself "yes you can"...and so I did!  :)

I started by cutting out my title from a few of my favorite patterned papers and then grabbed out a few photos and embellishments.  I wanted my title to be the statement of my page, with the photos more of an afterthought.  Usually my photos speak the majority of my story, but today, these words are what I wanted to convey on paper.  

I used two "crafty" photos that I had in my photo box.  Really anything could have gone here....so I just used what I had available.  A few simple embellishments, some journaling and my page was done!

Here's a look at my finished page:





Super simple page, but the words speak volumes to me.  I have this page sitting up on my desk to remind me that the little things can wait....  :)

What about you??  Can you think of a title that resonates with you or your life right now??  If you are up for a challenge, I would love for you to play along!!  Anything goes....just as long as you use a large title!  Get creative and have fun!

Please link up your projects here and tag me on Instagram .  
There isn't really a "deadline" per se....just link up when you can!!  Can't wait to see what you create!

Happy crafting!
