Technique Challenge:
1. This challenge is to discover or rediscover a technique you have wanted to use. First rule is no templates or masks (you can use a mask only if you made it) of any kind. Here are so many awesome techniques for us digital scrappers. One that I have seen here generally by the GIMP or Creative Memory folks and that is the fabulous globe. (Does anyone have the directions for Photoshop CS?)

2. Use the appropriate number of photos/papers for your technique. (If any number are appropriate…use as many or as few as you want).
3. Use elements from at least 2 different kits and repurpose (if a frame use for a different purpose or change it up) or add a style to it. You could even try brushes or different actions for this step. Have fun!
4. WORK A LITTLE MORE ON YOUR TECHNIQUE.
5. ADD SHADOWS OR ANYTHING ELSE YOUR LAYOUT NEEDS
6. Journal only if you want to USE ONLY A ONE WORD TITLE.
7. Leave love for others.
*******BE SURE TO TELL EVERYONE WHAT TECHNIQUE YOU USED*******
