Hello and Welcome to The Great Digi Scrap Off 4.0!

My name is May of Elysian Studio. I am excited to host our Week #4 Technique challenge: Blended Bliss!
We are not requiring participants to pre-register this year. Just come and play along with us each week!

This week challenge is about BLENDING, and what we'll do is blending your photo into the background of your layout to make it looks more attractive then leaving that space blank. What you have to do is, create a layout with a full page photo blended into the background that also contains at least 2 clusters and 2 smaller photos to support the full page photo.

For my layout, I've been using Misty Morning Collection by Elysian Studio.

And here is my layout.

General Rules
Your pages for each challenge must be new pages in order to qualify for credit. You cannot use PBP Team Challenge layouts for GDSO layout completion. All GDSO layouts must be posted in our GDSO gallery here: https://pickleberrypop.com/forum/media/categories/the-great-digi-scrap-off-2022.1158/ with proper credit given. See our PDF guide!


Specific Rules for Signature Challenges
Use It All Challenge
: You must use ALL and ONLY the items in the mini kit. The 75% PBP Rule does not apply to this challenge.
Template Challenge: You must use current PBP Products for your challenge layouts (and the template).
Mystery Box Challenge: You must only use the contents of this Mystery Box for your layout.
Living in: Hope Collab Challenge: You must use only our Living in: Hope Designs. You should have several parts of the collab already, if you have been playing along with us.

BBD Challenge: You can only use our March BBD products

Weekly Technical and Showstopper Challenges
The Technical and Showstopper challenges must use at least 75% current/active product in the PBP Shop in order to qualify for credit. Technical and Showstopper Challenges CANNOT be completed using the Use it All Mini Kit, Template or Mystery Box that is given with Signature Challenges.

All three challenges must be completed by the deadline each week in order to qualify for the weekly participation prize and to be considered for our weekly Star Scrapper Award.

Our Grand Prize will be awarded to one scrapper who completes all 15 challenges by the last week’s deadline. This means even if you don’t finish each week on time, you can still catch up to earn the remaining prizes and qualify for the Grand Prize!

Start a post in the GDSO Challenge Tracking thread
Keep this up to date with links to the layouts that you’ve completed and uploaded to the GDSO gallery. Please make sure you are linking to your page IN THE GDSO GALLERY, not the thread post in the challenge.

Finally deadline for all layouts is April 4 @11:59pm ET. At that time the tracking thread will be locked, the final weekly prizes will be sent, and winners will be contacted by April 7.​

I paper I used to blend makes the sun appear to be shining through.
Love all those photos! They must have so much fun! The blending is awesome and I love how you put those two photos in the heart frame. Very well done!

Thank you for playing along!

Thanks @Elysian Studio (May) for this Technique challenge. The photos are mine. Everything else is from “Art Box No. 7” (including the template) by TirAmisu Designs (with some re-coloring). Fonts used: Amalfi Coast Regular & GRENDEL BOLD.

First of all, those photos are precious!!! I love your blending and how you used those stamps/paints/overlays. It really makes the layout pop, and those elements clustered around are just enough. You've done a great work on this layout. Thank you for taking your time to play along.

What a fun challenge, I experimented with different ways to blend the photo into the background and learned a few things along the way!

Wow! Love your blending and love how you've used those scripts overlays on the blending. Great cluster work and shadowing as well. Beautiful layout. Thank you for joining this challenge.
