Can you believe how fast this month is flying by? By crikey I had marvellous dreams of getting lots of challenges done this month and still have quite a few on my to do list... however, I have 2 to show you today..
The Sketch over at PURPLE PUMPKIN was one created by the fabulous LIZZY HILL so more than anything I wanted to create a layout to show support for Lizzy.. To be honest I am not much good at creating layouts with random placements, however I hope you can see how the sketch has inspired me..
The sketch..
I have used an older range from Kaiser and the photo I have used is one of my favourites taken Christmas time last year..LOVE..
I have layered up the collectables with foam tape..
(a closey first..)
Thankfully the rules for PP say you don't have to use PP products because I don't think I have any, but sure would love to win some!!
The latest Challenge over at OFF THE RAILS is to use sprays/ink/mists to change your back ground papers.. How fun is that??!!
I did use masks and stamps and mists and then in my typical fashion covered most of it up with my embellies.. oh well I have a few close ups to show I actually did do a fair bit of back ground work first!!
The family is one of natures masterpieces.. (another wayyy old paper range from Kaiser.. !!)
Closer view of the back ground...
Just a little reminder there are still a few days left to enter

ReplyDeleteOh what gorgeous work Lizzy!!! Love what you've done with the sketch :) Thanks so much for playing along at purple pumpkin xox
ReplyDeleteLizzy you've certainly embraced the use of Inks,Sprays and paint in both the PP and Off the Rails project! Well done. I know exactly how you feel though, I ALWAYS cover my hard work up with embellishments. I look back on my final piece and wonder why I bothered lol but then it wouldn't be as much fun if we didn't get our hands dirty. And that Kaisercraft "Artsy" stamp!!! isn't it the BOM? I use it all the time. I love the way you've incorporated it into your background of your Off the Rails layout. Thank you for joining our challenge at Off the Rails Scrapbooking.
ReplyDeleteLove!!! great job. love the texture and layers!! absolutely love the theme of "cross stitch" for your family photo. yap.. family = closely knitted!! love!! thanks for joining us at Off The Rails Scrapbooking!!
