Week #2 Challenge

OK Ladies - it's time to get started on our 2nd week of Elsie Challenges. This week's challenge:

Take an Artistic Photo & Scrap It!

For those of you with the book, this is challenge #7. From the mouth of Elsie herself:
"It's easy to capture photographs of family and events. But for this challenge, I want you to look through the lens of your camera as a photo enthusiast. Take a closer glance at things in your life that you might otherwise walk on by. Look for beauty in unexpected places, inside and outside your home!"

You will have two weeks to complete this challenge. The reason for the extension is because you must take a NEW photo for the purpose of this challenge. We're on the honor system here, so please don't use an existing photograph. We're allowing extra time to take the photo and get it printed. Then, you must scrap a layout using the photo. The finished project will be worth 15 points.

Official Due Date: Saturday October 7th at Midnight EST!

Here are some examples for inspiration:
Heaven
Mixed Blessings
Spoiled
Lui
Drive
Skirt
Stones

You can also go to 2Peas and search their gallery with "Elsie Challenge #7" and get another page full of ideas. You can also check out the forum for this challenge, which includes more links. Hope this helps!!

Oh wait - one more important thing to add! Next week, there WILL be another challenge with a regular one week deadline. So, sharpen your time management skills and make sure you're able to do both by Oct. 7th!

Now, get snappin' and then get scrappin'!
