This One's Due Today

Hello and good morning, How was cropping last night? Did you get either of the challenges done? Hope so. Let's not waste any time and get right into it today. This challenge is based on the 5 on Friday challenges that are on the blog. The difference with this one is you have an hour and a half from the time you start the challenge to complete it. Because of time zone issues, there will be a six hour window for this challenge -- so this is one challenge that will NOT be due on Tuesday, it will be DUE TODAY. Obviously, we need the honor system with this one, so I need to you to "punch-in" when you begin your challenge by posting a comment along the lines of "I'm starting my layout now at 1:30 MDT," and then when you post your link to the completed layout, post your finish time. You'll need to have your layout completed and linked up in the comment section by 3:00 pm MDT to be eligible for a Cookie-Jar Treat. As I started saying, this challenge is based on the 5 on Friday challenges that run regularly on the blog. I give you the ingredients, you create the layout using only those items. You can alter the items; i.e. tear cardstock, create borders from patterned papers, make your own elements by combining ingredients, but you are limited to what is listed in the quantities listed. So if you can make three cardstock flowers AND mat your photos with one sheet of cardstock - go for it and good for you. Now, here's your list:

• 1 sheet cardstock
• 1 sheet patterned paper
• 1 set of buttons
• 1 transparent/sheer item
• 1 length of ribbon

Outside of journaling and a title, the above items are all you're allowed to use. Remember there's a six hour window to complete the challenge in -- it is due to be linked in the comment section by 3:00 pm MDT. However, once you start your layout you only have an hour and a half to complete the layout.

Good luck and we'll see you again for the next challenge.
