Challenge #43

Today's challenge is a different one of sorts- since we all have lots of pictures that were taken over the holidays that we are probably getting around to printing now, the challenge is to create a page using no embellishments, just pictures. Bonus if you can include some hidden journaling.
This is the 1st Challenge with our guest DT member

Deb

She also included some great hidden journaling on her page:

What a awesome job! I love the little strips of paper running behind the pictures :)

I also wanted to share this one that I did a couple years ago... all that's on here is photos, paper & ink...

I am looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with :) Don't forget to add your layout to our Facebook Page or link in the comments.

Now, for a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! I want to get some more readers' layouts, so we will be having a bi-weekly contest on our Facebook Page! Every other week I will be posting a Facebook Challenge- the best layout posted to our Facebook for this challenge will be featured on the blog for the next week! Next week will be the first week this will be happening- make sure to visit our Facebook Page and "Like" Paper Thrills to  enter and have fun!

Challenge #40

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! This week's challenge is a little different, but is a great one to help clean up all those Christmas Cards you received!
This is a Too Much is Never Enough challenge- create a layout using things cut from your Christmas cards as your only embellishments!
Due to illness & moving, we only have 1 layout to share (I may be adding one of my own later) from DT Member Missy! I love how she incorporated the letters in the title!

I look forward to seeing everyone's interpretations of this one!

Hope you all have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Yesterday was my daughter's 18th birthday, so in honor of that, today's challenge is a Too Much is Never Enough- use 18 different elements on your layout!
I know, you're thinking that it would look really cluttered, right? Not with these adorable layouts from our DT!

Due to an emergency out of town trip last week, I was unable to get last week's challenge posted, so that means this week, it's a double header!
Challenge #26
This is a theme/ title challenge! Your layout needs to be about, "What I know for sure." Our DT came up with some wonderful layouts :)

Challenge #25

This is a different Too Much is Never Enough challenge of sorts. Our inspiration for this one was a musical one- I call it the Heavy Metal challenge :) Our DT was challenged with using only metal embellishments on their layouts and they really rocked this challenge!

Connie

Connie even added some cool hidden journaling...

Missy

I am totally loving those zipper flowers on this one...

Paula

This patriotic theme is perfect with the metal!

Challenge #24

Everyone is gearing up for Back to School, so that is the theme of our challenge this week. It is a Too Much is Never Enough of sorts. Design a layout using any combination of Cardstock, lined paper, crayon, pencil, pen, a ruler, stencils, and a brown paper bag. NOTE: This layout does not have to be about school.
Due to family emergency, we only have one layout this week to share... but what a gorgeous layout this is!

Challenge #3

Spring, where are you?

I am in the Pacific Northwest and it looks nothing like spring this week, so I want to make a little spring on my own.  This challenge is "Too Much is Never Enough" ... otherwise known as I want to see your layouts with as many flowers on them as possible! Let's make it really springy :) They can be silk, paper, lace, chipboard, buttons, whatever.

If you're into creating flowers youself, here's an excellent list of tutorials: http://tipnut.com/paper-flowers/
