Guess Who- Childs Play Challenges

Hello there, long time no blog! I went back to work in December, and while it's only 20 hours a week, it's really cutting into my scrapping time! Trying to make an effort to get back into the swing of things, and I have a sweet layout to share with you today!The latest challenge at Child's Play Challenges is to get inspired by the game, Guess Who. Here's what I came up with:


My little trip for this layout is a go-to technique for me, I call it the "Double-Sided Flip". See my cute pink chevron background paper? It's double sided, and the flip side is the sweet pink pin dots behind my photo. Since both sides of the paper were adorable, I took advantage by sketching out a rectangle on the chevron background where I knew I wanted a second pattern. I then used my paper trimmer to cut this rectangle out of the background, flipped it over to the pindots, inked the edges, and taped it back in place with simple scotch tape. Easy-peasy!! 

Be sure to stop by the Child's Play blog to see how the rest of the DT has been inspired by Guess Who and play along yourself! =) T
