Challenges are a great motivational tool. As a website design team member I have led
and participated in many scrapbook challenges over the years. In fact, I based one of my Creating Keepsakes
classes on that very concept. Some of
you are “Great in Eight” class members and are joining us for continued
encouragement and fun!
Great in Eight is an eight week challenge. I will post the challenge for the week here
each Monday. Then all you have to do is
complete a layout a week for each of the eight weeks. To sweeten the pot, post your completed pages
on our Facebook page and you’ll be entered in a weekly contest.
Participating in weekly challenges is a great way to keep
scrapbooking on the front burner. I want
to encourage all of you to join us as we embark on a journey to complete 8
Great Challenges over the course of the next 8 weeks.

Week 1 – Monochromatic
A scrapbook page with a monochromatic color scheme looks clean and
elegant. Monochromatic layouts utilize
variations in lightness and saturation of one color for most of the elements on
your page.

Neutral colors such as white and black are often combined with the
monochromatic colors. You can also use patterned paper that uses
different variations of the same color. It’s quick and easy to choose your products when you
narrow down your choices to one color because you know that they will go
together.
Our first weekly challenge is to create a layout with a monochromatic
color scheme. So what are we waiting for…let’s get started!
