One of our favorite & frequent guest designer is the one & only Ali Edwards. Designer, blogger, author, wife and mother of two, Ali is well known for capturing everyday life with photos and words and creating scrapbooks from those moments that often pass by in an instant.

We asked her to create a challenge specifically for this crop and she obliged us with a beautiful challenge & layout.

CHALLENGE | Go big with your type. Do it with stamps, letter stickers, etc. When I put this one together I was wishing I still had some of those big old foam stamps.

SUPPLIES:
Pattern Paper: Fancy Pants
Word Stickers: October Afternoon
Large Alpha Stamps: Educational Insights (the extra large green set)
Metal 2: Tim Holtz
Text Stamps: Ali Edwards for Technique Tuesday (Favorite Memories + Dad Rocks)
Ink: Close To My Heart


Make sure you upload your layouts to the Cocoa Daisy Gallery with the Challenge Number and the title of your LO (e.g. Challenge 2 - "2 Love"). After you have uploaded the LO, please link to the respective Challenge thread, so we know you've completed the challenge.

You have until NOV 20th, 8pm Eastern to complete the challenges you wish to participate in. Challenge Winners will be announced later that week!

Wow - are you going to make me admit I still own foam stamps? Why yes I do... but I have lots of big fonts... this should be doable one way or another. Excellent start here! Yeeeah!

I have been holding onto that FP paper for so long. I might just have to use it. I have all those foam stamps but didn't bring them with me when we moved, bummer.
