MandyK's 1 Hour Challenge- 8pm **WINNER POSTED**

[MandyK]

Step right up! Come on in! Y'all know you get all geeked about these 1 hour challenges just like I do. So let's get to it.

Alright ladies did y'all gather that packaging up this week? I hope so

Your challenge is to complete a layout in 1 hour using at least 3 different packaging materials.


Remember in the teaser I posted last week I gave you some ideas of what not to throw away? If not here are some ideas.

Glassine bags your kit embellishments come in
Clear plastic from embellishments
Basic Grey or MME embellishment backing
stickers from your CD bags
the clear plastic baggies from embellishments
etc.
whatever packaging you want to use go ahead and use it.

Here is what I started with


a few examples of what I did with my packaging.

Embossed the BG packaging for the background of my frame.


Stitched a shaker baggie out of an embelly baggie


Journaling on a Cocoa Diasy Stamp backing


Frame cut with my bigkick and Laina Lamb die but you could freehand it.

Stars cut from the Websters Pages packaging.


You have 1 hour to create a layout and I will give you 20 minutes to upload your layout to the gallery and add to this thread. The winner will receive a $5 gift coupon to spend in the Daisy Boutique.

Ready set GO!

Half my class is in the challenge, MandyK! I guess great minds think alike!

We should team teach sometime. And when I say teach, I mean get together and hang out in real life!

Okay. So this is awesome, and I love your ideas. And not just because I have the same ones. But because you are always thinking out of the box and everything you touch is magic.

So there. I can't wait to see all the pages from this challenge. The challenge for me would be to get something done in an hour. I get distracted looking at all my cool packages!

You are so sweet! WOuld love to team teach with you

[kalymiller]

Cool! I love the little shaker bag. And the STARS!

[MandyK]

THanks ladies!!

Jody~ you are so sweet! Would love to teach with you

[SuzMannecke]

This challenge is so fun Mandy! I love recycling, repurposing packaging!
Love your layout and you documenting your DD's relationship!
Would love to join in but just picked up some za for the family and my hubs is at my scrap station helping me clean up my imac so it runs better. 45,000 plus pics in iphoto prolly has much to do with it's sluggishness, yes?! So, I am afraid I won't make the deadline! but I definitely intend to tackle this challenge in the near future!

My problem is I haven't scraped in a long time and nothing is coming to me I'll end up doing one, because I too love working with the packaging.

the red netting is from a bag of potatoes, the tissue is from a cd kit, the brown paint is applied with bubble wrap, and the acrylic piece is from a basic grey mini magnet pack. I also used a CD kit box to use as my spray box

I love the frames you made with the little bags from CD kits, Mandy.
