Kaiser Saturday challenge, Scrap the Girls and 123 Challenge blog

A very good day to you wherever you are! Another week nearly over... I have a few challenges to share..

The Saturday challenge over at KAISERCRAFT  is to create something different.. humm I have my sisters birthday today so I thought I would just cover a plain little note book for her.. She loves green, so I gathered my green papers from Kaiser and some stamps and gesso and some dies and created this..

Before the layered dies..
Finished cover.
She can use this to write special things in...

The September challenge for SCRAP THE GIRLS is a fabulous sketch, and loving sketches like I do I just had to create a layout!

The sketch..
and my layout..

Dream.


And the September challenge for 123 CHALLENGE BLOG has now gone live.. It is a bit late this month because of a special arrival for Alicia..  And this month it is..

The color is Khaki The word is Emphasise and the technique is hidden journalling..  My layout will go up in the mid month post... but pop over and see the other DT layouts.. HERE..


Thanks so much for coming by, I know we are all so busy.. Thank you too for any comments you leave me .

  3. Oh lucky Sister to receive this little gem. It's so interesting to see the process; the background and how it changes with the addition of the dies. What is the fine black one called? Gorgeous take on the sketch challenge. I like the way you've stamped around the edges and the little touch of whimsy with the face tucked into the cluster :D
