Labor Day weekend online crop

At the scrapbooking message board I hang out at now, a bunch of us decided to have an online crop over the holiday weekend, complete with live chats, a hilarious and fast paced game of scrapbook bingo and challenges. Anyone who wanted to could "host" a challenge and provide a small prize. My challenge was to use the colors of the rainbow and the prize was a rainbow selection of Thickers stickers. I couldn't win my own prize, but this is a layout I did for it.

And the rest of my pages:

Challenge: football (or any sport)
Challenge: use hexagons
Love that it combined one of my favorite paper lines (Simple Stories 100 Days of Summer) and the hexagon nesting die set that Terri got me for Christmas :)  I also used a sketch that I pinned on Pinterest.
 
Challenge: scraplift the given layout:
It was almost a direct lift; same background paper, same placement, and a mat made of ribbon.

Challenge: pink and bling:
Challenge: pick 6 (from a list of 11). I chose patterned paper background, thickers title, block sticker subtitle, wood veneers, handwritten journaling and enamel dots.
Challenge: use up leftovers
I had originally cut out the heart for the pink and bling page, and the pink paper for cupcakes is leftover from the same layout. I've been waiting to use the Silhouette title cut for awhile :)

Challenge: Patriotic
I actually one this challenge, by virtue of being the only one to submit. Oh well, I like the layout and received a lovely SG page kit set from my friend Debbie (challenge host).
