Ok .... here is my take on it - it is not exactly the same, but I was definately inspired by the map ... I normally don't use SO MANY patterns on one page
Thanks for helping me finally get it done! 
), I gave him some measurements to cut with the Cutterpede - and he did. He messed one up, but decided to fix it with the little yellow piece. He even used the ATG to glue them down, not realizing how sticky it is, and then when he messed up the measurements, he had stuck down the big blue piece, and couldn't move it up. Oh well. He even picked out the Dew Drop color!
Alright, here's my entry. Except I'm not really sure it counts, but I wanted to post it and leave the eligibility up to you, vanyel. Here's my story:
My boyfriend actually did this page! I'm so proud of him. He picked out the photo (except I was going to use the same one anyway, so it worked out), he picked the paper (as you can see, he's definitely colorblind...
The only real input I had on this was the blue piece of paper that the title is on, the title itself, and the measurements of the paper. I wish I could have not had him use that red paper, but oh well.
Up to you to decide if you want it to be eligible. If you do, it can go in under his name, and if it comes to it, I can always have him make the next challenge - he actually said he would be willing to scrap with me again!
Anddddd.... here it is!
It's really cute and the red paper gives it that "pop" of color decorators always talk about it. It looks great!
This was a challenge, but here is my page...
I had to get my journaling in there! 
I was not sure if I would make it in, but I did!
Vanyel, I took your quilt idea and ran with it! I was skeptical as I was making this, but I love the final results. I think the stitching really brings it all together.
It is a little different from the map, I hope that is okay.
Thanks for a making me think outside the box on this one!
Changing the map is part of the process - it's so fun to see what others do with the template!
