Scrap The Girls Challenge.

Hi I'm trying to pop up my Challenge entry quickly before attending to tea 

and I think this is my last challenge for the month.

I have created for Scrap The Girls and this is the requirements for this 

month it is a mood board:

 I love the colours but they are a real challenge for me.

Here is what I have created:

This is a photo of my friends and we are out for lunch after a 

hard morning shopping at a great market.

It was such fun and close to Christmas so we picked up some great presents.

I have created the circle and flower on the left side which reminds me of the saucers in the mood board. I have used a Charms Creation heart and flower and also a star chippie button from Burdy's Embellies.

I love the big dots embossing folder on the burnt orange from my daughter.

So if you are reading this PLEASE become a follower of mine.

That is it for now.

D-lish Scraps Challenge.

Hi guys I'm not sure if I have completed a LO for D-lish Scraps before, 

but thought I would give this one a go.

I actually hadn't brought the kit this month as I was away and when I got around to creating this LO my daughter had brought it and I pinched  some from hers.

This is the mood board for this month:

Wow what a great moodboard! The colours are very striking and a fantastic sketch too.

Anyway here is what I have created:

This great bird is actually our neighbours, his name is Pepe.

When they go away we bird sit him for a week or more ( once it was a month ) at a time.

He is just delightful and we love coming home to him singing and talking.

My son took this great photo of him while he was studying photography at school.

I showed our neighours this LO and they were rapt.

Anyway I took inspiration from the chevrons, followed the sketch and colours.

I used the washi film strip tape and the black sequins from D-lish.

I usually create a double LO and like to pop it here for family and friends to see. 

So here it is:

Well that is it for today.

Here is what I have created:

 

 When I pulled this photo out I thought I should of had it made bigger, 

but once put into a LO I'm happy with it.

This photo was from a great retreat I went on last year, we had so much fun.

I usually create a double LO and love to put it up here for family and friends to see.

Show Us Your Stuff Challenge.

Well here I am with another entry into SUYS monthly challenge.

This is the requirements this month:

I love the colours on this mood board and I ran with the cold and music theme.

Here is what I have created:

  This is a photo of my son when he was back at school a few years ago now. They were taking photo's for photography class.

I have coloured my own paper here using ink pads, water and sea salt. 

I love the finished result.

 I found this old sheet music from the Salvo's and decided to keep the song title as I thought it went well with the cold theme.

I painted my camera with ( new to me ) glitter paste.

I also included a Charms Creation chevron.

Most of the time I create a double LO , I like to pop it up here for my family and friends to see.

So here it is:

I had to add these photo's as they are jumping and have no heads.

Cool photo's.

That is it for now.

Funky Flair Challenge.

Hi everyone I'm not sure if I have created for Funky Flairs yet but I had a go at this months.

Here is what is required:

I'm not into pale colours but when I complete a challenge 

with them on I think why I don't use them more often.

This is what I have created:

This is a great photo of my nephew which my son took for 

photograph a few years ago at school.

I picked this paper up at Spotlight the morning I created this LO, it is 

a Kaisercraft one and I thought the glitter circles were perfect.

I just had fun using up scraps and odd embellishments I had and also a Funky Flair.

That's it for now.

Scrapping Clearly Challenge.

I have found a new challenge to enter over at Scrapping Clearly. 

I found it through someone else blogging about it. 

Anyway here is the moodboard for this month:

 What a lovely moodboard it is.

This is my creation:

This is my gorgeous niece and from a few years ago.

I had fun creating the circle with ink, water and sea salt, which I came across this technique the night before on the computer. I was lucky to be at a craft day and a friend had this feather stamp and die cut from stampin up and they let me use it. I also had a runner from Charms Creation which has been in my stash for ages. The paper I found that morning at Spotlight on my way there and it is glitter circles from kaisercraft.

I'm very happy with the end result and had so much fun creating it.

I will go link it up now.

Kraft Plus Challenge.

Well I'm back again with another challenge over at Kraft+ this month and this is what is required:

Sometimes the hardest part is choosing the photo's for these challenges.

When I went through my stash of photo's I came up with my retreat photo's at Scrappe Tiger Retreat and thought "PERFECT".

Here is what I have created:

I have tried altering the kraft paper by smearing with ink, spritzing with water and sprinkling with sea salt and leaving over night. I love the result and texture it has left. I also found some animal print felt which I sprayed orange, it was very vibrant when I sprayed it but faded when dry, it blends in well. I also have a lovely Charms Creation heart which I already had and it finishes off the LO beautifully.

I usually create a double LO and like to pop it up here for friends and family to see and here it is:

Animal print is out of my comfort zone but I had so much fun with this LO.

Bye for now.
