Twilight Tuesday Farewell Blog Hop TTIC60

Hey everyone!

It’s Rebecca, bringing you something special for our last Twilight Tuesday Inspiration Challenge.  For this event, we’re doing a DT blog hop.  Our challenge theme????  ”Love of books, the printed words on a page”  since that is what brought us all together. 

Creative portion:  Create a project that uses printed text: a page from a magazine, book, dictionary, etc. within your project, as the background or focal point.

Comment Portion: I love to read the newspaper online but nothing beats a printed newspaper on Sunday mornings. And no matter how hard I try, I can’t abandon books (hardcover, softcover, or paperback) to a digital reader. Are you totally digital or do you prefer a good old fashioned printed page in your hands?”
 

The hop trail will be in a backwards alpha order…
 
Starting here …. at the Twilight Tuesday Blog

2. Watch for blog candy offerings on the Design Team (DT) blogs and leave comments on those blogs to be entered.  We’ll be offering the blog candy on randomly selected DT members ….. so make sure you go check them all out and leave us some twilight love!

TTIC #55: Monochromatic Colors! And 3 More Days Left…

Ok. Lots of stuff today! So let’s get started! I’m coordinating today’s post so I will be your guide…

First up, Eve has issued a fun and different kind of challenge for us today:

Make a project using a monochromatic color scheme

inspired by the Twilight Saga.

For those who may not know or are unsure, a monochromatic color scheme uses a single color on most every layer of a project. In this type of scheme, various darker shades, grayer tones, and paler tints of the main color may be included in the palette. In addition, the one color is often paired with white or another neutral. (Wording paraphrased from About.com)

This link from Bazzill Basics might give you some ideas!

Please scroll to the very bottom for the links to the design team’s creations and rules for playing in the challenge…

Next, just as a reminder…in case you’re in a coma or dead…

New Moon premieres in:

 Today is the LAST day to sign up for the New Moon Blog Hop!!!

ARE YOU IN??

And finally, we’re doing something even MORE different today!

Alison is also issuing a Special Challenge:

“Hey Twilighters! The time has come! The wait is over! New Moon is going to be relased THIS WEEK!!!

I’m betting that a lot of you have big plans; I know I do! But here’s the thing, we at TTIC don’t want to just hear about your expierience with the movie, we want to see it!!!

So pack up your camera and TAKE PHOTOS of your New Moon experience! Pics while you’re waiting in line, of you and your Twi-friends, and even the afterglow of seeing all your fave Twi-boys!

Then, pull out your die cut machines, your snazzy embellishments and make a layout! Journal about your night out! Show us those awesome photos! Scrap your movie tickets! Let’s all get scrappin’!!!

This challenge will be due on December 1st, so for those of you that aren’t going to see the flick opening night, you’ve still got some time to play along with us!”

TTIC is taking a Thanksgiving holiday next Tuesday but Alison, Margie, and I will share some special projects to help inspire you to create your own scrappy experience of New Moon!

And finally (oops, I already said that once!), for the comment portion of today’s challenge, please share your New Moon viewing plans! Are you going with your spouse, kids, friends…when? Let’s hear your excitement!
