There are 4 parts to the challenge same as last time, each part coming every second day but this challenge differs slightly from the last one in that as the result of a request, I am putting up this thumbnail of my completed page at the start to show where the instructions for the challenge took me.
No theme is assigned to the challenge it was only as I progressed through the challenge myself that the theme you see here developed and that really stemmed from the photo I chose to start off my page. As you follow the instructions you will have to see how it speaks to you and which path you want to follow as regards a theme – if indeed you want a theme.
I will post instructions for the Challenge here in this thread every two days starting Today then Monday, Wednesday and the final part on Friday.
After you complete each step please post them in this thread marked - Part 1 or Part 2 etc;
Note: Remember as well as saving each part as a jpg to upload here also save as a PSD so that you can add to it as we go along.
I am providing these links below to various sites from where FREE images, photos, clip art, backgrounds etc. can be downloaded if you require them.
At one time or another I have used every one of these sites with no problem. I have no association or affiliation with any of them and derive no benefit from them in any way other than the free use of images they provide which is open to anyone.

Let’s get started…
Part 1.
Open a new document 12x12 inches
Choose a paper for your background and place it in your document.
Choose a further 2 papers to go with the background paper and place them vertically on the left side of your page. Make the top most strip slightly narrower than the one below. They should take up no more than one third the width of your page.
Shadows can be added at a later stage.
Part 2.
Add a photo onto your background paper and clip it to a mask or shape. It should be centred on the page and appear to be coming out from below the paper strips, and should take up about half the page. Add a paint splat or stamp extending out from below the bottom of your masked photo.
Choose a minimum of 4 but no more than 6 elements to compliment your page and form them into a cluster and place on the topmost shaped strip of paper towards the top of your page.
Add Shadows to the paper strips and your cluster.
Part 3.
Add a frame to highlight ‘part’ of your large photo and then add a title top left of your photo.
Add a quote or some journaling around the top right of the photo frame.
Add a cluster across the bottom of your page consisting of no less than 7 elements. Leave the bottom right side of the page clear for now.
Part 4.
Now for the final touch –
Add 3 more ‘small’ frames with photos to the bottom right of the large photo. These can be slightly off the page. If you need to readjust some things to accommodate this please do – and your done hooray.
