Hey y'all, it's Stephanie and today I'm here with a brand new weekly challenge.
I have a problem, and I can admit it....I hoard thickers. It's gotten to be seriously out of control. I am moving in a few weeks and as I stared down the MESS that used to be my craft room, I realized that it was time to start USING supplies.
That's how I came up with the idea for this layout. The challenge is simple:make a long title using at least three different types of thickers,stickers,or silhouette fonts.
(supplies : patterned paper : Heyday Ethereal ; Thickers : Heyday Ali Thickers in aqua, Heyday Bliss Thickers in pink, Heyday Bliss Thickers in black ; die cuts and brads :Heyday Ephemera Pack ; Veneer-Heyday My Type Other :American Crafts Precision Pen,adhesive)
I chose three different thickers from the Heyday release. I just had fun. I didn't worry about perfection or anything of the sort.
The end result is a FUN,happy layout with a BIG title. Hahahah! Not my usual layout, but again...so darn fun.
Good luck! I can't wait to see what you do! Link your project here by July 30th for a chance to win a $5 gift card to the Studio Calico Shop.
Love it and I really NEED to do about 12 layouts w/ this challenge :)

I too seem to collect alphabets far more quickly than I can use them. And I have a difficult time combining different sets in a single layout, so this was a great challenge for me. Here's my layout.

Loved doing this one. Even pulled out some really old foam thickers that had TOTALLY lost their adhesive:
