Well Happy April to you! and no I can't believe it is the 4th month of the year already.. but it is!!
And that means new challenges for us to enjoy!
The
SCRAP THE GIRLS APRIL challenge is to use boy colors and boyish embellishments on your layout.. but remember this is a girls only challenge site!! hehe!!
The
DT have some fabulous layouts to inspire you and my layout...
Sun and Sea..
I have used browns and blues and my embellishment is the surf board (and yes I know girls have surf boards too just like girls have soccer balls!!!). I have used some netting from those netting balls you use in the shower, I ripped bits off one of those for my fishing nets!! The photo was taken in winter when my girls and I made a dash up the coast for a day trip.. love the beach, even in winter!!
Well just a quick post, thanks for calling in, and thanks for your comments which are always an encouragement!!
No way, hosee....well, now I know a use for all those shower scrubby things I get given!!!! Bet they'd make great 'blotchy' patches for your MM art journal with a bit of paint or ink on them, too, Lizzie.....eh???? LOOOVE this......it's a toughie, too....but a real challenge......& the surfboard works a treat!!! I've just a shocker of a day. Lost most of my photos through my own stupidity...off my blog, all the posts on my DT blogs AND the blogs I'd scheduled for DTs & myself.......been a real right royal MESS...think I've got them all back now....had to redo them all from my computer. Feeling totaly wiped out!!! It was NO APRIL FOOLS DAY for me. It was FOOL for REAL!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWowzers...what a stunning page. I love everything about this page. The texture is amazing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful layout, Lizzy! I love the diecut background and the netting.
ReplyDeleteYour page is wonderful, Lizzy. Got me thinking on this one.......it's on my list. Love the embellies you have used and the colours.
ReplyDeleteGreat colours for a beach page and clever work with the shower net. I like the sequins and the bubbles. The little marine creatures look right at home. Lovely work Lizzy :)

Haha, love the sound of this challenge, great idea, I think I would find it hard. You have done an amazing job Lizzy ! Such a beautiful page ( sorry it doesn't look "boyish " to me ) and you have definitely ticked all the boxes. I guess beach themed can be boy or girl so very clever thinking. Love all those beautiful layers. xx
ReplyDeleteLove the blues and browns,great colour combo and I like the use of the netting
ReplyDeleteLizzy, looking at this, makes me want to take a day trip to the beach! You've done a great job of conjuring the essence of aquatic pleasures! The netting from the shower ball was inspired...I like your kind of thinking.
ReplyDeleteLove the layout!!! It's so pretty with those colors! Good use of the netting!!!!
