Challenge Thursday - Fill 'er up!

Happy Thursday, Trixie Scraps fans! It's Carrin here, with this week's installment of Challenge Thursday. Each scrapper has something that he or she does very well. Something that makes their pages pop. For some it's clustering or shadowing; others are journaling aces. You want white space? I got it! Now, cover the entire page with photos, elements and journaling. Hold up...what!?! That is something that I struggle with. I really like the look of full pages, but I can never seem to get them just right. I'm always moving elements and photos around and, ultimately, I end up deleting it all and starting over again. So, here's my challenge for you (and me!)...I want you to fill up your page. Add lots of photos (a minimum of five, in fact), some journaling and plenty of elements. Go crazy...you have my permission! One way I usually start pages like this is taking a peek through some galleries to get some ideas. Look no further...here is some inspiration from the Trixie Scraps team!

Mary Kate whipped up this cute page using All About Me: The Littles.


Jamie B. took her inspiration from one of Trixie's template packs (Through the Week vol. 1, to be exact) and made this jam-packed page using Master Chef.


And, lastly, Bree made this mouse-terpiece using Mr. and Mrs. Mouse.


In case you are struggling still with this after seeing those beautiful images, check out some of Trixie's templates. I chose just a few of T's many template packs that had multi-photo placements combined with a plethora of elements.







If that wasn't enough, here's a free template for you to downloadd (you do not have to use the template to complete the challenge).

Now, get scrappin'!  And please don't forget to link us up to your post over in the Trixie Scraps Gallery...I can't wait to see what you come up with!
