Hi everyone! Staci here (May's guest designer), and I am challenging you guys to use some sort of fussy cutting/handcutting on your layout. This is one of my favorite techniques to use, and as soon as I saw the gorgeous Simple Stories paper in this month's kit, I knew I had to cut right into it! I handcut several flowers to use as an embellishment, and I also cut around the loops of the stitched cardstock to change it up a bit

You have from now until midnight Eastern time on May 31 to complete the challenge. You may complete as many projects using the challenge as you wish. Each project will earn you an entry into our monthly prize drawing. Please upload your layout to our gallery in the appropriate "May '13 Challenges" folder to be eligible for the prize.

Can't wait to see what you all come up with!

Staci--Great challenge and beautiful layout!

Misty--Love your LO, too.

Did the background paper come with the white dots on it? If not, what technique did you use to make them?

Jaynne...it did not! I have a mini punch that punches those little random sized holes. I just did it all the way around the page then layered it on a sheet of solid white cardstock that came in the kit..I have never done that before and I really liked how it turned out!

I think fiskars has a similar punch...mine is an OLD Creative Memories one. >>>That I never used! LOL

These are so pretty! The florals really lend themselves, don't they?

I loved these papers from Fancy Pants "Walk in the Park". I wanted the circles, but my circle punch was too big so I ended up fussy cutting them. If you look real close, they aren't perfect, but close enough!! We remodeled our kitchen recently and these are the before and after pictures! This is a great idea for a challenge!

Misty-- that is a great technique. I think that I will look for a similar punch and try that! :wink:

Ladies- very nice LOs that you have done for this challenge. They are terrific.

I have one of those punches from EK Success. It is called "Swiss Cheese" and rightfully so! :lol:
