Happy Tuesday! I hope you have had a great start of the week while enjoying your summer! Cindy Liebel here to share this weeks challenge with our Lily Bee fans. Joining me on the fun is Melissa Mann and we both have layouts that will inspire you to create for this challenge.
THE CHALLENGE:
Use journaling index cards in unique ways to showcase your photo(s).
Persnickety Journaling Index Cards
My take on the challenge was pretty simple. I highlighted a small accent photo by framing it within the design of the journaling index cards. I just used my xact-o knife to create the opening.
I also used other journaling index cards as simple accents that anchored the main photo and added adjectives that described a flower using negative space to anchor the main page design.
Melissa Mann’s layout is stunning. Melissa took the challenge to a whole new level buy creating pockets to hold her photos, journaling and bits of tag accents.
I love that her layouts gives you a little peek wanting to see more.
The tone-on-tone texture and geometric shapes adds a subtle touch to her page design. The top section Melissa’s page adds a burst of color using a mix of patterns from the triangle cardstock stickers.
Maisa also joined us on our challenge and this is what she came up with
I love how she layered up all of her journaling cards to create her photo vignette. Just beautiful!
Now that you have been inspired, please share with us your unique ways showcasing your favorite photos using Lily Bee journaling index cards.

Love these - just curious, last month there was also a challenge issued June 4th to use the journaling cards and no mention was ever made after the deadline. The June sketch winner wasn't announced either.
