Challenge Shares

HI all, 

My first LO to share is for the Kraft It Up challenge this month which is to creatively use stickers. Not only have I used boarder stickers, chipboard sticker and Thickers I have used an old (boarder) sticker sheet as a mask! I peeled off what was left of the sheet, stuck it on my layout and covered with texture paste! And it surprisingly peeled off very easily and hey presto! 

Why would you spend money on expensive mask when you can find one in your rubbish bin! Haha. Also the adhesive backing means no bleeding of your paint or mist! Yay

This next LO is using the sketch over at Scrap Friends. Nothing innovative done on this one that I can share! Although I did use alot of boarder stickers so I would have a mask to use on my Kraft it Up LO! LOL

I do have one more LO half finished on my scrapping desk for Stuck! But I'm heading off to Uni in Bendigo tomorrow so it looks like that will have to go unfinished for a couple more weeks! Oops. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Sophie's Corner Challenge

This month Sophie's Corner challenge is scrap a LO with a school theme! I thought this would be perfect as school has just started back and I know how excited little kids get (big kids, not so much)!
Here is what I created ...

So get your kids scrapping and head over to SUYS before the 28th to enter them in the draw for some fabulous prizes!

Over at SUYS this month the challenge is to take inspiration from this image and, as always, to include a handmade embellishment...

I took inspiration from the quote for my LO and made a collage of (some of) my scrapbooking LO's from over the last...8?...years! Who knows if I did eat paste as a toodler eventually prompting a sudden urge to start scrapping all those years ago!

30 layouts are feautured in the photo but that's not even half of what I have created. The first titled 'Dance Concert', was the first one I ever did (we can only laugh at them now can't we?), and the last one I completed only this month!

Also thought I'd throw some modelling paste onto my LO to keep with theme!

I have multiple handmade embellishment, both are from this months sponsers!

Raquel has recently released some exciting  new product at APOCD! They are 'Cherry Flairs'! I have the Everyday Woodgrain range but there are many more to choose from! Check them out here and maybe add them to your LO!

Or you could visit Agnus at Scrap This and get some adorable, fuzzy felt, handmade embellishment, like the arrow I've used! Either way enter this months challenge and you could win either!

Happy Scrapping,
Sophie xx

Scrapping with Eb...

Earlier this month I had the pleasure of scrapping with Ebony at her home in Warnambool! After she taught me a few new techniques, I managed to get 3 layouts completed!
The first one was using the first sketch over at Stuck...

The next two are 'just because' layouts!

The first challenge for 2013 is up over at SUYS! Marelle has found this lovely image for you to take inspiration from this month!

And here is my take on the challenge...

Not only have I taken inspiration from the colour palette but have also used circles.

For more inspiration go here and see what the other ladies have created!

Also, sponsoring this month is Mould's by Mel whose products I didn't get to use on this LO as they arrived too late. But you should check out her site and the other sample's to see what you can create with her products- she has some lovely designs!

Thanks for stopping by today and happy scrapping,
