TRD Presents: 4x4 Friday Lives: Episode #1

Our first TRD 4x4 Friday Live is in the books and OF COURSE the very first challenge we tackled was a layout in under 30 minutes, which I failed at, spectacularly…but we got close!

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, during the entire month of August, I’m scrapbooking LIVE on YouTube every Friday night at 9 PM EST and at the kickoff party, we rolled the dice to find out what the challenges were going to be all month long!

You can watch that live HERE if you want to see how we decided and how I put together my stash-busting kit I’ll be using all month:

I don’t know about you, but whenever I have a time limit, I like to go in prepared, so I made myself a quick and easy little sketch in advance of the live that would make it easier to get through the layout faster and it looked like this:

You can download a printable PDF of this sketch HERE if you want to print it out and play along!

From there, it was fairly easy putting my layout together following the sketch and embellishments from my stash-busting kit!

I enjoy using products from multiple manufacturers and collections together and don’t to it often enough, I really need to make more stash-kits in the future!

You can watch the full stream HERE and I hope you join me Friday Nights at 9 EST to play along! If you do play along, tag me on Instagram so I can see your layout and use the hashtag #TRD4x4FridayLives!
