Here are my "rolls" - used the online roller

4 Photos
11 Patterned Papers
9 Solid Papers
10 Elements
9 Time to repeat an element

I will update this post with my layout when I complete it
Here is my attempt:

4/31
I tried very hard (for about 3-4 hours) to use everything but I failed. I used 4 photos, 11 patterned papers, 1 solid paper, 1 element and an alpha HAHAHA the good news is that I LOVE the final result and that is what matters right?

-------
2nd roll of the dice (I want one that I can complete ) :

11 patterned and 9 solid papers?! after seeing your numbers Kaleena, I'm definitely just using one die.

I think that online dice roller is broken...lol! I rolled six times and then realized there were only 5 items on the list here but these are the numbers I got: 777447 (haha) Soooo...

7 photos
7 patterned papers
7 solid papers
4 elements
4 x to repeat an element

Kinda curious how this is going to turn out.

*********************** RESULT ***********************

That was harder than I thought it was going to be. All those photos w/all those papers was definitely a layout challenge! My first attempt was a mess and this was my second. I went simple and used the solids for photo mats & the arrows and the patterns as papers strips & background.
