APR07VSBNR - Focus on Yourself!!!
This is the chat thread for this challenge!! Here are the instructions again:
Focus on Yourself!!!
As women we are constantly thinking of everyone and everything else.....our children, our husbands, our families, our jobs, our homes!! Sheesh! I'm getting pooped just thinkin' about it!! The whole idea of a 'Spa Getaway' is that you take some much needed time for yourself and focus on just YOU, for the day or the weekend! Get a relaxing full-body massage, a seaweed wrap, get a spunky new hairdo, a cleansing facial, get a beautiful manicure.........because, let's face it.....you deserve it!!! And you need to stop and take good care of yourself, so that you are able to then, turn around and take good care of others!
So I want you to Focus on YOU for this challenge!! What I want you to do is to take one single picture and make that the entire focus of your layout. This must be a one page layout, it must include ONLY one photo, be it a 4x6 or a 5x7 or an 8x10!! There will be bonus points for larger pictures, bonus points for flourishes (stamps, rubons etc.) and bonus points for using a photo of YOU!!
Don't forget to use the provided sketch!!
SKETCH SAMPLE Gallery Submissions!
