STS Speed Scrap #221

I participated in a speed scrap Friday night! I haven't done one of those in FOREVER!

Here are the directions:
Step 1: Choose 4-7 photos - keep 1 large, crop the others to small sizes (like 2x2, 2x3, 3x3, etc)Step 2: Choose 3 papers - at least one needs to be solid. Cut the solid 6x12 - put it aside for now, use one paper for the background, cut one about 4x12 and put it on top of the background
Step 3: Choose 1 element that is flat looking. You are going to duplicate this on the solid paper to create a "patterned paper". If your kit has the same element in different colors, you can use those. Place your new patterned paper on the layout.
Step 4: Frame, mat, stroke, or brush the edges of all of your photos. Put your large photo towards one side of your layout. Cluster the smaller photos on one side of the large photo. All photos should be connected.
Step 5: Add 2 ribbons or string. Also make a cluster with 5 other elements.
Step 6: Create a title and put it sideways on your layout.
Step 7: Add journaling, date, shadows, and/or whatever else you need to complete your layout.

And here is what I came up with! It is for the race I just completed.
