Have you ever heard of Road Map to Scrap? Well it's a fabulous challenge held at ScrapMatters and it's the inspiration behind this month's challenge. I will be giving 8 instructions and look forward to seeing where it takes your layout.

1. Let me see some negative space (templates are ok, especially if you're white space challenged as I am)

2. As we are now at the 1/2 way point of the summer, I want to see a summer theme- summer kit, summer pics, summer journaling. As long as it's summer related it's golden.

3. Multi photos-- this means more than one. It could be the same picture, it could be different pictures, it could be different stylings on the same pictures- that's all up to you.

4. A hanging element (pretty self explanitory)

5. Wordart in the title- this can be wordart mixed with a font or just wordart alone

6. Show me stitches- hopefully they're not from a summer time accident.

7. Elements from nature- water, sun, whales!

8. Date, journal, and shadows- this can be one, two or all three.

Most of all have a great time and enjoy. You can leave a link to your layout here or join us at Scrapmatters.

Here's what I've done!
