August 2 Daily Challenge: RAK

This month my first challenge at Scrap Orchard is the RAK Challenge. This is a fun and easy challenge. I post a picture. Someone scraps my picture and posts one of their own. Then next person scraps their picture and so on and so forth. It's a lot of fun to scrap someone else's pictures sometimes :). Here's my picture:

On the 15th I'll come back and scrap the last person's picture. That closes the challenge to new participants, so get your picture in while you can!

I chose to do the techniques below:
    S - cut out/swiss cheese papers
    C - black and white photos
    R - scalloped trim
    A - paint scatter leaf
    P - lots of white space
    O - add a stroke to your title

Pick one instruction from each column and scrap away!
