I spent most of Saturday and several hours on Sunday at SIStv's online crop. They had a bajillion really interesting challenges that ran around the clock! SIS has a lot of international SISters, so for someone like me who keeps odd hours, it was great to see new challenges popping up at 3am! I managed to use quite a few of the challenges as inspiration for some CT layouts for Amanda Dykan and Tara Sroka Designs.
NAME TAG: For this challenge we had to create a name tag for ourselves.
FIVE PLUS A DAY: For this challenge we had to choose five techniques from a long list of choices, but one of the techniques had to be "hybrid" using one of the elements from the SISiversary digital goodie bag. I chose painting, stamping, paper piecing, collage, and hybrid.
THE ALL WHITE CHALLENGE: We had to create an all white layout.
DIGITAL PATTERNED PAPER: We were challenged to create a digital piece of paper.
NARCISSISTIC CHALLENGE: This challenge was to create a layout about why you rock! You also had to use something from the digital goodie bag.
JUKEBOX CHALLENGE: We were given a list of songs and told to choose one. We then had to create a layout which used the title of the song as the title of the page and the lyrics of the song as the journaling.
MANLY CHALLENGE: Since Sunday was Father's Day, we were challenged to create a layout inspired by the holiday.
NAT'S HOUSE CHALLENGE: The lovely and talented Nat challenged us to create a layout inspired by the Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young song, "Our House." We also had to (1) have a house featured on the layout somewhere and (2) use something from the digital goodie bag.

You did as many layouts in one weekend as I did in an entire eight-week contest LOL! You’re a machine, Julie! They are all fantastic. I think my favorite was about believing the hype– I always love how honest and transparent your journaling is.
