Hi everyone! Sarah (sascedar) here with my pick for layout of the week. Difficult choice- there is so much gorgeousness in the Chripi gallery right now! I have chosen Helene’s layout Tout petit petit. She has combined a beuatifully cropped photo, subtle use of the new Scribble Blocks, and a lovely composition of elements from the Board Shorts kit.

When it comes to scrapping a page I usually keep it very simple and minimalistic. Try your hand at my kind of scrapping using just the basic supplies.
Create a layout using only the following items:
- 2 photos
- stitching
- 2 papers
- 1 frame (can be used multiple times - but must be the same frame)
- staples
- a title
- the date (optional)
Here are a few layouts for inspiration!
Layout above by Wallychick (Malea) : layout below by Stirling (Diane)
Please be sure you post your layout in the Chirpi Chick Challenge Gallery and link it up here in the comments on the blog. Submissions are due by 2pm GMT on Friday 5th September to win a $10 gift voucher!.
A winner will be picked by Malea later on that day and receive a kit of their choice from Chirpi.
Good Luck! I can’t wait to see your layouts!
