Scrapbooking with patterned papers
Time for some colour and pattern — in fact, as many patterns as you dare!
Your challenge is to create a project using at least four patterned papers — a card, a tag, a scrapbook page. Whatever you like is fine as long as it includes a variety of pattern!
Take a picture of your project and upload it to your blog or a page gallery. Leave a link in the comments on this post to enter. See this post for details and deadlines for this weekend.
One randomly chosen entry will win a prize package filled with patterned paper perfect for as many projects as you wish!

This took me a while, and I found it really hard to not feel like I was clashing – but i think I got it to work in the end. Here is my layout: http://chandeleah.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/1255-2.jpg

This was the fastest layout I’ve ever done! I usually spend days mulling things over :)

I used five different patterned papers on this one! It started out as a take on your sketch earlier this weekend, but morphed into a submission for the patterned paper challenge. Thank you so much for all of your creative inspiration!!!

I’ve had a go at this one, using a photo I took during the “Love your Photos, Love your Pages” class of my daughter drawing.

Another challenge covered by something I’ve already done this weekend. Have to see what else I can come up with later……

Tackled this one with a card! Although one of the papers was stripes and full of design, I did use 4 sheets of BG’s Nook and Pantry: Thank You Card

My Saturday Morning layout used 5 different patterned papers. Great challenge!

This notebook I decorated has 4 patterns of paper. It took so long to find a combo that matches! The blue layer looks like it’s plain but it’s actually very finely polka dotted.

Four patterned papers used here. Great challenge!

Here’s my offering: The Comedy of Errors, courtesy of October Afternoon Thrift shop. I love how the muted colours in the collection go really well and yet still have a kind of faded glamour. Theatrical!

Lots of patterned papers on my collaged bunting flag in the bottom picture (middle flag) in this blog post:

Great challenge…strange subject matter (on my LO). Have decided to make a ‘down on the farm’ series of everyday farm life stuff. This is now second in the ‘series’ (of 2) just because I couldn’t think of a better title and already have a LO entitled down on the farm. And so a series was begun!

Here is my layout – enjoyed this challenge as I find it hard a lot of the time to use more than two different patters.
Here it is!

Yay! I scrapped Dave’s pics of the Alberta Hall & Memorial today and,as luck would have it, I used four patterned papers.
