Sept. 19: Totally Template MIS @ 9 PM Eastern

[jaye]

Welcome to our first evening Totally Template Make it Snappy! Or as I will be referring to it as; TTMIS for short :). We are going to be holding these every third Monday of the month at 9 PM Eastern time. Here is the date for the October one so you can mark your calendars with the next one; Oct. 17th.

What is a TTMIS you ask? It is just like our fabulous MIS BUT I supply you with a template from the amazing Cheryl aka Fiddle Dee Dee Designs. 'Now what?' you're probably asking, well after you d/l the afore mentioned amazing template I give you 7 instructions every 10 minutes (see just like our fabulous MIS) that will take the template from 'as is' to a whole new creation. All the other MIS directions apply, you have 1 hour after the last instruction (who am I fooling, I always give 1 hr. 15 min., lol) to upload your marvelous new creation to the Make it Snappy gallery and link it back here. I will post the template preview and link about 10-15 minutes beforehand to give everyone a chance to d/l and open it.

What do you get? Let's see an awesome free template from Fiddle Dee Dee Designs that is yours to keep, 1 lucky person will win a coupon to Cheryl's store and you get to hang out with me just like we did this summer..............sorry I had to put that in there :)

Can't wait to see you!!





**sorry this link is no longer available. Please join us again October 17th @ 9 PM Eastern for a new template and new set of instructions.

I will post the instructions in the forum but will also update this post with them so it's easy to follow along. First instruction will be posted at 9 pm :)

Instructions:
1. I want you to take this lovely template created by Fiddle Dee-Dee Designs aka Cheryl and rotate it 180 degrees. Don't forget you may
want to adjust the degree on your shadows. eg. if they were set at 45 degrees they will now likely be -135 degrees, if you're fine with
that awesome!
2. Choose a photo and give it some kind of treatment. You can edit it yourself or use an action. Take your edited photo and tilt it just
a little bit, any way is fine.
3. We are now going to take one of the paper strips and rotate it 90 degrees and move it anywhere on your page.
4. Grab your papers, let's say 5 of them. Of these 5 one will be your background. I'm feeling lenient today so no restrictions on solid or
patterned.
5. Now as you can see there are 4 large circles, remove one. You can move the others around your page as you wish. Use the papers you have selected to clip to these circle mats and the paper blocks.
6. There are 11 elements on the template. I want you to add 4 more so you have a total of 15 elements. You may arrange the elements anywhere on the page or leave them as they are placed. You can double up your elements as long as there are 15 in total.
7. Add some word art and a title. Date and journal if you wish.

Don't forget to upload to the MIS gallery and link back here so I can leave you all some love. Your time limit is until 11:15 PM and one
lucky person will be randomly selected to win a coupon to Cheryl's store!!

Congratulations to lmjrocko for winning the coupon to Cheryl's store!! Check your PM's for your code!

This is my first attempt at something of this nature or any challenge here. I just love the template design and hope that I can complete the requirements within the timeframe. I joined quite a while ago, but I was physically unable to do any challenges. I was in and out of the hospital for a year and then spent two years back in the hospital. I am recuperating now and hope to spread my wings.
