I swear it was only mid-March. I loved this mood board from <a href="http://sassyscrappers1.blogspot.com.au/">Sassy Scrappers</a> and definitely wanted to give it ago, then to realise on the weekend that I only had a few days left. Can you believe it's already April?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyway, I whipped this up today, inspired by not only the moodboard but DT member <a href="http://sassyscrappers1.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/beautiful-girl-on-journey.html">Chantalle's</a> take on it. While she used brush strokes I decided to make my title a feature across my page. </div>

I am super disappointed with how my layouts have been photographing lately, actually ever. I have tried every position in the house and every setting on my camera. I promise you it looks a lot better in person. The watercolour looks a lot bright and more orange. I'm going to try take a better picture tomorrow. </div>

I used bit and pieces from past and current Scrappery kits because that's all I really have on hand here at Uni. Plus some things I've pick up at Spotlight while I've been here. I'm not going to tell you how much I've spent there in the last 5 weeks. </div>

To create my title I stuck down some DIY Shop letter stickers, used my gelatos to create a watercolour effect then removed the stickers and stitch around each letter with this gorgeous multi-coloured thread.<br />

<a href="http://scrapperykitclub.com/products/january-tsk-cleo">Cleo</a> is <a href="http://scrapperykitclub.blogspot.com.au/">The Scrappery's</a> January kit and it is AMAZING. It features plenty of paper and embellishments from Dear Lizzy Serendipity collection which I adore. The colours are just so different to other ranges out at the moment. I don't know about you guys but I'm actually a huge fan of purple at the moment, especially lilac and violet. I know a lot of scrapbookers dread it though. </div>

Today I'm sharing with you some sneaks from a <a href="http://scrapperykitclub.blogspot.com.au/2015/01/tsk-clara-love-sophie.html" target="_blank">layout</a> I created using Clara, the December TSK over at <a href="http://scrapperykitclub.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">The Scrappery</a>. TOTALLY LOVE THIS KIT. It my favourite yet, featuring lots and Maggie Holmes Open Book and lots more goodness. And it's so versatile, you can check out my Christmas layout <a href="http://scrapperykitclub.blogspot.com.au/2015/01/november-tsk-clara-layout-with-sophie.html" target="_blank">here</a> and a vintage layout <a href="http://scrapperykitclub.blogspot.com.au/2015/01/tsk-clara-layout-with-sophie.html" target="_blank">here</a>. I don't think the subjects/photos in those layouts could be more different.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
I am loving this combination of colours at the moment, pink, red and black and white, especially because Valentines Day is approaching.</div>

The photo I used I took when I visited my cousins in January. It's a scrapbookers dream when you pull your camera out and everyone is more than willing to pose for a picture or 100 or whatever. So here's a few more. Which will MORE than likely find there way onto a layout sometime soon.</div>

I used a background I had previously created but didn't end up using at the time. I often create backgrounds but don't end up using them so it felt great to finally use one.<br />

Hi guys, I'm so sorry for my lack of blogging! I'm sure I wasn't missed too much. I haven't been blog hopping for months. I mostly get my inspiration from Pinterest and Instagram these days and that's where I promote challenges as well.<br />
For the past few months I was struggling to balance scrapbooking commitments, with Uni and travelling to and from home. I was cast in the Bendigo Threatre Company's production of Chicago, one of my favourite musical, which means during my semester break (which I thought I would spend scrapbooking) I was travelling back and forth between home and Uni.<br />
My masters projects have been my top priority (and obviously I can't show you those) which means any other scrapbooking commitments, let alone scrapbooking for myself, have been pushed aside.<br />
<br />
TO THE POINT!<br />
I am amazingly thrilled to be joining<a href="http://heynaedaily.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank"> Nae</a> and <a href="http://www.ascrappymess.com/" target="_blank">Kayla </a>on <a href="http://www.scrapperykitclub.com/home/shop/" target="_blank">The Scrappery</a> Creative Team. The Scrappery, if you haven't heard of it, is a brand new kit club specialising in Project Life and traditional scrapbooking kits right here in Australia.<br />
I will be working with The Scrappery Kit and the Bits and Pieces Kit.<br />
Below are some sneaks of what I created with <a href="http://www.scrapperykitclub.com/home/product/jericho-the-scrappery-kit/" target="_blank">Jericho</a>, which is the TSK for September.<br />
I also created a PROCESS VIDEO which you can watch <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmHFrFlvnR4&list=UUaOYO8-WTVJyPBLwxnbunEA" target="_blank">here</a>. Or the blog post <a href="http://scrapperykitclub.blogspot.com.au/2014/09/tsk-jericho-365-days.html" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

Hi again, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today I have another challenge from <a href="http://123-challenge-blog.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">123</a> to get your mojo flowing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here's the criteria:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoT5o_zZgFYrO3dALID6JQcYrcyc0KE-6BY66F5I1VGdrq-Dyfl6jiQOE6HXc8mZcT7PgwGzUZO2bOVKfcqhbuf9e0w-oHEhlOej04Cu9cZPk93mi1Cmajpy0vTzQCExKS912SXjb-uiRm/s1600/March+Board.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoT5o_zZgFYrO3dALID6JQcYrcyc0KE-6BY66F5I1VGdrq-Dyfl6jiQOE6HXc8mZcT7PgwGzUZO2bOVKfcqhbuf9e0w-oHEhlOej04Cu9cZPk93mi1Cmajpy0vTzQCExKS912SXjb-uiRm/s1600/March+Board.jpg" height="100" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And here's my sample.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHZJOfY4Q6cV82om-SXYk_Xb9ZAoovsbuWBS90Yp5W6lZarCP31jQsEOUV2MHzcFpR_4IOwWUBWpbnpSFlROblT93JNoe_14aUgDzWQNoSSYCIJEPWhdg2Vl7M7gfpKneXsnLbwxoriSbt/s1600/DSC_1275.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHZJOfY4Q6cV82om-SXYk_Xb9ZAoovsbuWBS90Yp5W6lZarCP31jQsEOUV2MHzcFpR_4IOwWUBWpbnpSFlROblT93JNoe_14aUgDzWQNoSSYCIJEPWhdg2Vl7M7gfpKneXsnLbwxoriSbt/s1600/DSC_1275.JPG" height="319" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have hand drawn several frames on some white card stock, first with pencil then with pen, then filled them in with watercolour(mist).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizUZbf_OmNXKAzEZwh9iBPEFUanV2oVx6R2yn9MWX6KSmj1Qe3PPI43c584U3fc_zwzEcMU1C_h0AN9dPQ2SJZospZfIPVCqkgcHxwo_OURHXpO4ENOH3Iy0eH6Ex1MQxuYzgBd-ThXHwx/s1600/DSC_1281.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizUZbf_OmNXKAzEZwh9iBPEFUanV2oVx6R2yn9MWX6KSmj1Qe3PPI43c584U3fc_zwzEcMU1C_h0AN9dPQ2SJZospZfIPVCqkgcHxwo_OURHXpO4ENOH3Iy0eH6Ex1MQxuYzgBd-ThXHwx/s1600/DSC_1281.JPG" height="213" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then used a small craft knife to cut out the centre of each frame before placing some patterned paper behind the windows. I then stitched around the edges of the frame.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6Fzjj0tZRlW9H0iRlE4ddjEzXS1jcLCJJek6yK3iJZUM0SwDM3ax1DFgbBiTty3efsimUJ_RMHw9D-cLk3hUVcdMiDrkt6nAkidIfiW6S8h2sBuytFb-46NKp3PQSgMNfWyPHv9B7jYc7/s1600/DSC_1279.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6Fzjj0tZRlW9H0iRlE4ddjEzXS1jcLCJJek6yK3iJZUM0SwDM3ax1DFgbBiTty3efsimUJ_RMHw9D-cLk3hUVcdMiDrkt6nAkidIfiW6S8h2sBuytFb-46NKp3PQSgMNfWyPHv9B7jYc7/s1600/DSC_1279.jpg" height="320" width="213" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then added some emphemera from Heidi Swapp and a few resins.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I have used a few different shades of purple on my layout, both with hints pink and blue hues.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used papers from Heidi Swapp and Dear Lizzy and some Heidi Swapp Ephemera.</div>

<span style="color: #a64d79;">Happy Valentine's Day</span> to you all!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My gift to you is a challenge and a colour palette to get you inspired.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The SUYS challenge this month is a quote challenge which is:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><i>"Follow your heart and happiness will follow".</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I thought this was such a versatile quote. Still capturing the month of love without restricting your layout to a romantic one. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I went with quite a 'Valentine's Day' inspired palette. I really love the combination of pinks, reds and purples and also added a hint of orange and gold.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
My handmade embellishment is the purple button which I made from Polymer clay.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUPm60AUbM8smzAjzUaAV5WsoFpdd4hf7Xior8f44B_pHRaJ4Gr3raFSqPRmLTK_q02qVWg_bcNVDzpp8S1DgScGUsVRZHg3SQTY35f5MB2bYIua5PAjTFjuh4V2Iv3KLdHpzQlnkcNdD4/s1600/DSC_0429.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUPm60AUbM8smzAjzUaAV5WsoFpdd4hf7Xior8f44B_pHRaJ4Gr3raFSqPRmLTK_q02qVWg_bcNVDzpp8S1DgScGUsVRZHg3SQTY35f5MB2bYIua5PAjTFjuh4V2Iv3KLdHpzQlnkcNdD4/s1600/DSC_0429.jpg" height="400" width="386" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the background I added some coloured mist to some texture paste and spread it over a stencil. I used a gradient effect to capture all the colours (though it is hard to tell as the middle section is covered).</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And as promised here is the palette I put together using the colours featured on my layout. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I LOVE putting together mood boards. There is something satisfying about finding a collection of images that compliment each other so well colour wise. All images below were sourced from <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/sophieannabel/colour-me-happy/" target="_blank">Pinterest. </a></div>

Well I have two great challenges to inspire you this month.<br />
<br />
As of this month I am on the DT at the <a href="http://123-challenge-blog.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">123 Challenge Blog</a>. I am super excited to be a part of the team.<br />
January's challenge is:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiK6PFyx2A55KNt2QIBJ0xQyn5E0d_qArmPbDNTwGR6wMVYGmwBfYYXHP7GLt9ugmep96n2ZBKSP-sexdKaZ9T-7j3Ctj877-o6WOkSnATd4C-fxkka8SmbkXtnrntlIuRdxKANnSOZ6HQ/s1600/January+Board.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiK6PFyx2A55KNt2QIBJ0xQyn5E0d_qArmPbDNTwGR6wMVYGmwBfYYXHP7GLt9ugmep96n2ZBKSP-sexdKaZ9T-7j3Ctj877-o6WOkSnATd4C-fxkka8SmbkXtnrntlIuRdxKANnSOZ6HQ/s1600/January+Board.jpg" height="125" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And my sample:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: orange; font-size: large;">{Removed for Publication}</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have been obsessed with using orange on my layouts recently. I wouldn't say it's my favourite colour but I think it looks great with lots of other colours, especially pink and mint. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For this layout I covered some white cardstock with modelling paste mixed with some pink and orange mist. I then doodled some feathers on the back and cut them out with a craft knife. I ended up using it as a mask as well. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And if that doesn't interest you (I don't know why it wouldn't), here's another challenge.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
January is Vicki's first month running <a href="http://showusyourstuff.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">SUYS</a> and here is the challenge.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0jwg7MD1lzv3sFrssRAzGcRII4Vnb-8QpBFaFebwgqhpqjc6N4JtAwt-KSfVXelDspY4dvXwYfg2gYjTeg0y7W2d30VU8N4nyGnPMYUIwx61iJu8wg7eYGpvWceH2RH1CwIGBkLFBvdgY/s1600/Jan+2014%5B3%5D.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0jwg7MD1lzv3sFrssRAzGcRII4Vnb-8QpBFaFebwgqhpqjc6N4JtAwt-KSfVXelDspY4dvXwYfg2gYjTeg0y7W2d30VU8N4nyGnPMYUIwx61iJu8wg7eYGpvWceH2RH1CwIGBkLFBvdgY/s1600/Jan+2014%5B3%5D.jpg" height="400" width="341" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You must take inspiration from any of these images and include a handmade embellishment. I went for a NewYear Eve's theme and took inspiration from the two, top right hand images. I used the pump from an orange mist bottle and wrote '2013' all over some white card stock.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's what it looks like...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbh_gNQ_qzKmmJfFCUETXBIhI-3o-od3xBYl2F4BuEEpIxSbXKoqfMVt1-GenlO-LaTgfZQac2vAU-LwHtiq9R4NrNRSFp34ypf2oeHnb-v2sRryBfz_grqzLJ70lJbvr6jiM5lgL_3yTk/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbh_gNQ_qzKmmJfFCUETXBIhI-3o-od3xBYl2F4BuEEpIxSbXKoqfMVt1-GenlO-LaTgfZQac2vAU-LwHtiq9R4NrNRSFp34ypf2oeHnb-v2sRryBfz_grqzLJ70lJbvr6jiM5lgL_3yTk/s1600/photo.JPG" height="400" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really love the bright colour against the black.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I hope one of these challenges inspires you to get creating this weekend. I might have to have ago at some different ones myself.</div>

I am beyond thrilled to FINALLY announce I'm a Scrapbooking Memories Master for 2014 (which most of you are probably already aware). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Eeek! This has been a dream of mine for some years now and I'm so thankful to be given this opportunity. </div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">

<div style="margin: 0px;">
This is first time I've entered the competition even though I have wanted to for the past few years.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
I am always so inspired by the Master's creations and hope I can inspire all of you over the year.<br />
<br />
This process was actually I lot more stressful than I thought it would be! We went on a holiday to Broome (which is documented in one of my projects) while I was working on my entries. I didn't realise I only had a week afterwards to finish them and even start one layout.<br />
This was especially difficult as I avoid double layouts and rarely work with larger photos, so I spent hours on these pages.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<b>What is the Masters challenge?</b> For those friends and family member's who don't know, the Master's challenge is a competition set by Scrapbooking Memories Magazine. There are four challenge criteria, this year was to create a handmade background, use a 5x7 photo, create a double layout documenting a journey and make a 2014 calendar. </div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
10 winners are chosen and receive a bundle of goodies from each sponsor, and are also required to create a layout for each issue throughout the year using the sponsors products.<br />
I signed a confidentiality agreement and was able to reveal this until just before Christmas. Longest 3 months ever. </div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
The Masters Issue went on on sale on the <b>2nd of January</b> for those of you who are interested. Here's what it looks like.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have featured the very cute <a href="http://d-lishscraps.openstores.com.au/c/253/Bitty-Blooms.html">Bitty Blooms</a> which are available at the store for only one dollar a pack (25)! It is definitely worth adding them to your next order!</div>

This months challenge at<a href="http://showusyourstuff.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/december-challenge.html"> Show Us Your Stuff </a>is to use the word <span style="color: #38761d;">JOY</span> on your layout.<br />
It is also <a href="http://www.undermycreativeumbrella.blogspot.com.au/">Marelle's</a> last month in charge of the site. She has done a fabulous job and will defiantly be missed. Even more incentive to get your entry in this month hey?<br />
She had planned to close the site at the end of 2013 but the very generous Vicki Burdon has offered to take over the reigns. I will be staying on the DT as will a few other DT members but shortly a call will go out to find new members to create with us.<br />
<br />
Anyway here is my take on the challenge...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnuNljW0Kh7tava5Go3P8sAv7-3Nr2DMRRxnakLKWQa79MeG0XGcixubO8cDMCiVpIEzsBqFMf4tSaul_l_-7QQJ2KGv2OrQXJIYiOeSx2C7Y2WCzxUAQczCVvKNFYQjS71KqbEyESRKiy/s1600/DSC_0256.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="398" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnuNljW0Kh7tava5Go3P8sAv7-3Nr2DMRRxnakLKWQa79MeG0XGcixubO8cDMCiVpIEzsBqFMf4tSaul_l_-7QQJ2KGv2OrQXJIYiOeSx2C7Y2WCzxUAQczCVvKNFYQjS71KqbEyESRKiy/s400/DSC_0256.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
I have used an assortment of different Christmas papers and some ephemera from Heidi Swapp. The starburst mask is also from Heidi Swapp as is the lovely colour shine.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My handmade embellishments are a Christmas flair from <a href="http://apieceofcakedesigns.com.au/category_10/Cherry-Flair-Buttons.htm">APOCD</a> and a lollipop from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Charms-Creations/147912481942641">Charm's Creations.</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I hope you find some time in your busy Christmas schedule to have a go at our challenge. Maybe even submit a page from your December Daily?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Make sure you head over to the blog from more DT inspiration.</div>

Hi guys, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Just popping by to show you some layout I created using my latest obsession- GOLD.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The first is for November's colour challenge at <a href="http://blog.scrapfriends.com.au/search/label/Colour%20Challenge">Scrap Friends</a>. This isn't usually a colour combo I'd use but I was super keen to try it out and I really LOVE the result. As you can see I've opted for a mixed media background.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I also created a layout inspired by this AMAZING mood board over at <a href="http://jotmagazine.com/">Jot</a>. I loved the colours so much I knew I needed to have a go at the challenge.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj994NyT_0g71GpT6DJ09ygynW5M8rq-73QtM1acAqKwN12GEh20io0tS_2kssHvRpFtzJpHu7MtTOoaoRwcsAnz9A2QLVuzyVLrixjNXNxa86rhQBglb_c4nfi8t3107RDZCgQbi_-Aok7/s1600/smallJOTMOODBOARDTEMPLATERED.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj994NyT_0g71GpT6DJ09ygynW5M8rq-73QtM1acAqKwN12GEh20io0tS_2kssHvRpFtzJpHu7MtTOoaoRwcsAnz9A2QLVuzyVLrixjNXNxa86rhQBglb_c4nfi8t3107RDZCgQbi_-Aok7/s320/smallJOTMOODBOARDTEMPLATERED.jpg" width="226" /></a></div>
So here is my take. I took inspiration from (1) by creating a tissue paper background and tearing sections back to achieve a similar look/feel. I was also inspired by the ombre flowers and obviously the colour palette.<br />

I have one more to show you which is for 123. The challenge was TEAL, STAMPING AND "COOL". No gold on this one!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I created the background by applying white tissue paper with modelling paste, spraying it with mist and then tearing off some sections of tissue paper when I realised I had added too much colour. I quite like the result.</div>

Can you believe it is November already? Well it's already flying by but you still have plenty of time to complete the challenge at <a href="http://showusyourstuff.blogspot.com.au/">SUYS!</a><br />
Novembers challenge is to use <span style="color: orange;">PAINT & WASHI TAPE</span>! Two of my favourite things to use on my layouts! And super easy too!<br />
Here's my sample!<br />

I created these 'bullet holes' using eyelets and Mister Huey's mist. I love that I was able to use some old supplies in a unique way! I was so excited when I came up with the idea, it suits the layout perfectly! (I have two 'bullet holes' in the side of my head, which you can't see in the photo).<br />

<br />
The photos are from a recent Halloween party I attended! I think this is the first time I've actually dressed up for Halloween. Only deciding about 6 hours before the event that I would attend it, I created this zombie look at the last minute with make-up and my friend had some watercolour I used for blood!<br />
<br />
Sponsoring the challenge this month is <a href="http://www.alilsomethin.blogspot.com.au/">A Lil' Somethin'</a> whose flair I used as my handmade embellishment. <a href="http://www.dustyattic.com.au/products/index.php">The Dusty Attic</a> are also donating a prize to one of our lucky winners. So make sure you enter to go in the running to win these awesome prizes from our generous sponsors.<br />

I used some Basic Grey chipboard pieces which mum had given me that morning, perfect timing. I knew I wanted to use these photos but didn't know exactly how I'd make the colours work. I can't believe how perfectly the colours in the chipboard matches the hues in the photo's.</div>

My last layout to share with you this month is for <a href="http://scrap-the-girls.blogspot.com.au/">Scrap the Girls</a>. I loved this colour combo, so bright and girly. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I thought it would be too much to use a solid colour as my background, so I grabbed some white cardstock (as usual) and used mist and water to create this ombre effect. I really loved how it turned out. It does look more vibrant in real life.</div>

Hi all,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The first layout I have to share with you today is created for the <a href="http://kraftitup.blogspot.com.au/2013/09/september-challenge.html">sketch</a> challenge at Kraft It Up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I loved it. It is one of those that really gets your mojo flowing. I can think of a few different layouts I can create using the sketch but here is what I ended with...</div>

Our computer had been out of action for some time so I wasn't able to print any new photo. I ended up rummaging through our scrap room to see what I could find and I found these gems. Haha, I love the colours though.</div>
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span>
<span style="text-align: left;">All products (well almost all) are from </span><a href="http://apieceofcakedesigns.com.au/" style="text-align: left;">A Piece Of Cake Design's</a><span style="text-align: left;"> August kit. I fell in love with these papers from My Minds Eye.</span><br />
If you haven't noticed I am currently obsessed with scollop circles.<br />

The next layout is for the 123 Challenge. The criteria- pink, florals and the word, sweet. Again I used products from the kit and added some Dear Lizzy products as I thought they went together perfectly.<br />

<div>
Just popping by to share with you I layout I scrapped today. Yay!</div>
<div>
I used the Stuck 15th <a href="http://stucksketches.blogspot.com.au/2013/08/august-15th-sketch.html">Sketch</a> (which is luckily still running). The extra criteria was to use the colours in their banner- blue, green and red. I used orange instead of red as it worked much better on the layout (and I wanted to use that gorgeous <a href="http://apieceofcakedesigns.com.au/category_10/5/Cherry-Flair-Buttons.htm">Cherry Flair</a>). Plus, I think some of the brads in the banner have an orange tinge. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So here's what I created...</div>

Have you seen the challenge over at <a href="http://showusyourstuff.blogspot.com.au/">SUYS</a>? yet? Septembers criteria is to use the colours red and white (and a handmade embellishment of course).<br />
Here is my sample...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdM1BxXpifKUNtybVdvhwbF51fG0cp1WzxKRk_2NBuu9Mj46eA5w7a4gGZOk5oZr9I9wi3GS8G5DbaJ1BjEBgBx1IdER1oN9CTCkd3cH9vL7LAaC4RXY9n6Bi1wgWyThZmojbVaJDbeZST/s1600/DSC_0196.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="315" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdM1BxXpifKUNtybVdvhwbF51fG0cp1WzxKRk_2NBuu9Mj46eA5w7a4gGZOk5oZr9I9wi3GS8G5DbaJ1BjEBgBx1IdER1oN9CTCkd3cH9vL7LAaC4RXY9n6Bi1wgWyThZmojbVaJDbeZST/s320/DSC_0196.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I used a lollipop from <a href="http://ourbrightstarsandus.typepad.com/">Charm's Creations</a> has my handmade item. I also added specks of yellow and blue because I was I thought it had to much of a Christmassy feel. Is it too early for Christmas layouts?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It doesn't feel like that long ago we went to see this match. Then I looked at the ticket... Round 5...that was like April... WOW, how time flies!</div>

The first is for <a href="http://blog.scrapfriends.com.au/search/label/Sketch%20Challenge">Scrapfriends</a> Sketch Challenge! If you've seen the sketch, you'd see I've rotated it! I initially had it around the right way but experimented and found this looked best!</div>

Next is a challenge for Stuck!? using the August 1st Sketch! The additional criteria, because it's their birthday month, was to create a birthday themed layout. I chose to use photo's from Zara's 1st B'day which was at the end of July. Amanda puts a lot of effort into her girls parties and does an amazing job, so of course I always take plenty of photos of the pretty party food and gorgeous decor. The theme for Zara's party was a Teddy's Bears Picnic, which is ironic because she cries at the sight of them (apparently).<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This layout was so easy to put together. I have used papers from Amy Tan's Yes, Please collection as the colours compliment those in the photo so well. I have also used die-cuts from Amy Tan and butterflies from Studio Calico. My handmade embellishment, the blue spiral flower, was created by me.<br />
I love the bright blue hues in the photo's which were taken on our recent holiday to Broome. We were lucky enough to take a sea plane out to the Horizontal Falls giving me the opportunity to capture these images.<br />
<br />
Make sure you head over to both <a href="http://showusyourstuff.blogspot.com.au/2013/08/august-challenge.html">Show Us Your Stuff</a> and <a href="http://sketcheswithatwist.blogspot.com.au/">Sketches With A Twist</a> to have a look at the other DT sample and check the terms and conditions for this challenge (as far as I know you can enter at both sites as long as you have met the criteria for both challenges).<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by,<br />
Happy scrapping,<br />
