iNSD Challenge | N.S.D.

[Kat Hansen]

Hope you are enjoying the [inter]National Scrapbooking Day celebrations! I scrapped long into the evening hours last night How about you?

This challenge involves using papers, elements, photos, and design that revolve around things starting with the letters N, S and D. Now, how you use the letters is entirely up to you, but all three must be used on your layout, and pretty predominantly, too, i.e., don't hide them! The "N" items might be the most challenging, but here's a few suggestions - nautical (theme), numbers (birthday, anniversary), nana (photographs), or perhaps a young child who's learned the word "NO!"? Scrapbooking items with "S" are much easier - stitching, stripes, stamps, staples, Saturday (day in the life type pages), scrapbooking (ha!). And then we get to "D", another challenge - dog (photos), dots (papers, stamps), any person or place beginning with the letter D, or even diagonal (layout design).

Here's my example:




So what did I used on my page?

• N - Neutral color palette (mostly white, black, and kraft), and newsprint.
• S - Staples, stitches, scatters, and several stamps.
• D - Dots (both one of the scattered elements, and also some dot brushes)

Think you're up for the challenge? In order to be eligible for one of the 'pick your own choice' NSD prize options, your page or project should be loaded into the gallery no later than 11:59pm PT on Wednesday, May 10. Winners will be announced in our newsletter on May 12. Also, please remember to link us up to your page here, in this challenge thread, so we can leave you comments and gallery love.

Happy iNSD!

Great take on the challenge!

N = Note paper and my title, S = book stamps, and D=Detailed in my title. I made this as a hybrid page to take notes on the book. Here's mine:

[Kat Hansen]

What a great idea! I would never think to take notes about what I like (or not) about a book.
