PLxSU Trio Challenge - week 4

Hi there! I was shocked to realize that this is our 4th week of the challenge. Time flies when you're having fun, right?

Are you ready for another PL Challenge? This week we're challenging you to use arrows on your PL layouts. Personally, I love arrows and use them all the time so this wasn't too hard for me ;)

It was a crazy busy weekend for us so I decided to use the PL App this time around. It's so nice to be able to put together a page so quickly and to be able to scrap the photos that are on my phone already.


Putting a bunch of photos on one layout is perfect for a situation like this, where I had several pictures of my son, but all with different expressions. It's pretty much the same picture over and over, but I think the PL layout helps keep it from feeling overused. 

I found some cute cards with arrows on them - I used the Just Add Color, Midnight and Project 52 editions.

We're having so much fun with this challenge and we love seeing the pages you post each week on our Facebook page. Thanks so much for playing along and sharing our love of Project Life! 

Make sure to check out Holly and Cori's adorable pages too!

Our First Ever PLxSU Trio Challenge!

I am so excited to be a part of this brand new Project Life Challenge! Holly, Cori and I have been friends for awhile now and they are always sharing their PL layouts with me. Their enthusiasm for PL is catching and even though I've been reluctant to make the switch to this method of memory keeping, they inspire me!

I hope you'll want to play along with us each week as we share different ideas and techniques. And please - any advice you want to share with me will be welcome. I'm a newbie at this!

Hopefully most of you have heard the sad announcement that Stampin' Up will no longer be offering MDS beginning in June. It breaks my heart because I was such a big supporter of the program, but these things happen and it is the best move for the company. You can still continue to use the program though - there just won't be any updates for it.

This week the Trio challenges you to split a picture between pockets.

I'm still a big fan of digital scrapping, so I decided to create my page using MDS since I'm still learning my way around Photoshop. Here is my page of a trip we took to Monticello a few years ago:


If you're using MDS it's actually quite easy to split your photos between multiple boxes. Simply highlight the photo boxes and group them together. When you click and drag your photo over the boxes it will automatically split them for you!

Have you checked out Holly and Cori's pages yet? They are fantastic!

We can't wait to see what pages you create! Post a picture of your page (or pages) to our Facebook page! You might just be our first Challenge Winner and win a PL accessory pack of your choice!!

And don't forget to enter the Trio Challenge contest!
