Weekly Challenge | asunnyisland

This week, our member Poppy (asunnyisland), wants you to mix prints and patterns for a colorful project. Our members are so talented and we love seeing your work in the gallery! Check back each week as we ask one of our members to inspire you with a challenge based on one of their projects from our member gallery. Be sure to visit Poppy to see more of her work and keep up with her.


Hi there - I'm super excited to be bringing you this week's challenge based on one of my favourite layouts from last year. When I was putting this together I purposefully chose to have just two photos in the layout, with lots of space around them. I'd just received a new Studio Calico delivery with lots of beautiful new 12x12 papers and I wanted to try out as many as possible at once! I love prints and colour and with this layout I had lots of fun mixing and matching the different patterns so that's my challenge for the week - create a layout that uses different prints and patterns alongside each other - the more colour, the better!

Now it’s your turn to create a project based on Poppy's challenge! Share your new project for the challenge in the Studio Calico gallery (add the hashtag #SCchallenge to make it easier to find!), then link up your project in the comments of this post by February 1st to be entered to win a $5 gift card to the Studio Calico Shop! This week's challenge winner will be announced in the February 6th Layout of the Week post.

    I admit I didn't add a lot of color, because I didn't want it to compete with the pink in my photos, but I did add pattern. Thanks for the challenge.

    I used pretty much all the paper patterns from the old Hello Hello kit: http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/182861-has-my-heart
