Pages created using Crop Addict's August Monthly Scrapbook Kit

I was able to create 11 pages from the Crop Addict August 2011 Monthly Scrapbook Kit and I still have two full sheets and quite a bit of paper, along with embellishments leftover.  But school is starting in 12 days and I have to work on the September Monthly Kit so, eleven layouts will have to do.

Jan 17th - Jan 24th Weekly Challenge: Double Down

In Blackjack the term "double down" means that in exchange for doubling your bet you will only get one additional card. 

At KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken), "double down" refers to a sandwich with bacon, two different types of cheeses, and two pieces of chicken. 

Here at Crop Addict we're going to loosely combine both definitions for this week's challenge. 

Your challenge this week is to create a two paged layout that has 17 photos, no more, no less. Why 17 photos you ask? In Blackjack, the dealer has to hit on a soft 17. The 17 photos can be of anything. Make a year in review layout, use sequential photos, whatever you wish, get creative and show us how you can double down this week. 

Here's my example, Simply.

 

 


Upload your newly created layout into the Jan 17th - Jan 24th Weekly Challenge Gallery and post a link to your upload in the forum thread by midnight PST on January 24th. 

Try your luck and double down this week.
