I covered four challenges with these pages: Let Me Tell You About the Birds & the Trees (IFC79), Variety Challenge: The Great Outdoors (SBVC12; Create Unity With a Grid (IFC76), and an old digi challenge, Make a Hybrid Page (DGC016).
For the hybrid page (left), I added my photos, digi elements (bird in boxes by Erica Zane (Backyard Buddies); tree in small boxes from Everyday Mom Ideas blog (Fast & Furriest kit), text and digi papers to a digi template (Scrappin With Liz) and printed it out, using a punch to round the corners.
For the journaling, I used a fill template by Patty Knox at Designer Digitals called Text Bytes No. 3. It has two parts: The main shape with my journaling which filled in as I typed, then I switched to the outside layer and it added the outer border of text. Very cool!
Stamps: Always (SU-bird), Birds Galore (Inkadinkado-bird), Season of Friendship (SU-tree and leaves), Cornish Heritage Farms (tree branch left)
Paper: Background leaf paper (Bob & Rob Super Slab 10-ProcoCraft-old); green and coral textured (DCWV); Choc. Chip cardstock (SU)
Ink: Cameo Coral, Old Olive, Choc. Chip, Mellow Moss, Pumpkin Pie; SU markers
Accessories: Alphas: Lg. brown foam and smaller paper (both by Paper Studio-Hobby Lobby); brass brads-Mikes $1 bin; corner rounder (SU); small glue dots
Techniques: Hybrid, stamping using pens and direct application on pad.

I just about died over this page! I love the colors, the layout, and all the embellies. Adore the background paper and the journalling- FANTASTIC page. Into my faves!
