NSD Crop Challenge | Line It Up with Lisa Truesdell
Hey, all! I know that one of the biggest challenges with starting a project is figuring out where to put everything. A blank background can be daunting! The next time you're pondering just where to start—why not try lining it up?
For this page, I started with a series of photos from our trip to Denver last summer. After shifting them around my page for a bit, I realized that they'd have a much bigger impact if I grouped them together. I lined them up in a row down my background paper and loved the effect.
To loosen up the lines a bit, I messy stamped a mat for my row of photos with the ledger stamp from the Bistro add-on. I adhered all my photos right down the middle of the stamping, and then began filling in around them with embellishments and bits of patterned paper—and I couldn't resist going for a bit of a rainbow effect in the process!
While I used photos for this challenge, there are so many possibilities. Line up pieces of patterned paper, or enamel dots, or a stamp. I can't wait to see what you create!
When you complete this challenge, upload it to the member gallery and leave a link to your project in the comments below. See ALL of the crop challenges here.

I decided to line things up by having every element on my spread right up next to the middle of my Traveler's Notebook. I've never tried that before, fun!

I have a lot of pattern paper strips that I keep after trimming off paper to 12 x 12 and I don't usually find a good use for them. Thought of using them immediately when I saw this challenge and I like how it turned out! Really good stash buster challenge
