Taking on Dear Lizzy's Challenges...

Hello, all! I just recently purchased Elizabeth Kartchner's fabulous book 52 More Scrapbooking Challenges. I am totally in love with it. It's full of inspiring challenges and fabulous layouts. If you don't know about Elizabeth, you should totally check out her blog. She is awesomely creative (she designed the new American Crafts line Dear Lizzy!) and her blog is full of funny family stories.

So, anyways...back to the book...I recently bought it and have decided that I will attempt every challenge in it. Some will be pretty easy, some not so much. I already know that I may be highly unsuccessful with some of her challenges...but I will try nonetheless. I am not putting myself on any sort of timeline. I don't want to fall into a pattern where every layout I do must satisfy one of Lizzy's challenges, but I do want to be inspired and I do want to push myself creatively...so we'll see what happens.

I went through the book and decided to conquer challenge #13 first: Combine black and white with color. Here is my result:
Black, white, green and a hint of orange puppy toy...

Until next time, happy kraftin'!
