Challenge # 120 - Patterned Paper

Hello all!   Karrie's turn to host, but before I begin the new challenge: here's a reminder of our structure change. We will continue to post challenges on the first and third Monday each month, and the winner from each challenge will be invited to be a guest designer for one of our future challenges so we can showcase your beautiful work! Then, all our winners -local AND international- for those three months will be entered into a drawing for an incredible prize!
 For full participation details, please click and read the "How to Play" link.


OK, so one of my favourite things about scrapping is the choice of patterned papers available.

 I love to mix and match patterns and colours and create colourful busy pages. 

I would like to see your favourite patterns ~ the more you use the more fun it is!

Here's my page, with 13 patterns!  Coordinated with the Bella Blvd Riley collection.

and here's what the other talented PaperGirls have created...

Brittany
I have so many packs of coordinated patterned paper where I love EVERY single sheet, so I cut up a little of each to pull together this double page layout

Kristy
I knew when I took these photos of my family using our VR glasses, that I wanted a "Space Age"/Futuristic feel to the layout.  Carta Bella's Space Academy worked out perfect for this!

Amber
I created an art journal page. But instead of using lots of inks and paints like I normally do, this time I only used patterned papers (and some word stickers).

And now.... congrats to the winner of Challenge #119...

Here is what our design fantastic design team created with this week's theme:

Brittany

I always find confetti to be beautifully messy - all the colors and lack of pattern. So I created these simple cards to highlight the beautiful mess - all using the end of a pencil, random inks, and a bit of washi.

Karrie

Confetti is for parties so I went with this birthday page covered in confetti, and kids covered in cake!

Happy New Year!

Kristy
A touch of confetti makes any birthday more festive!


Michele

Erica
I wanted to make a shaker card ever since I bought the Fuse tool. Confetti is perfect for this!
