The Scrap Suite Challenges.

HI there, I hope your day is going well.. it is a bit of a sticky day here with high humidity, so I am staying close to a fan!!

This last week I have been creating for the challenges for THE SCRAP SUITE which has had 5 challenges to do..  I will  list the challenges and my layouts for each one. I do love these challenges as it makes me just hurry up to get 5 layouts done in a week!

and they were..

my layout..

I have used an older range of kaiser papers and the flowers flair and sequin bow are all D-lish goodies!

I have used 3 lots of wood veneers with the leaves and the word sisters colored..

I have tried to fade the photo into the page, using gesso and mists.. my circle embellishments are the buttons..


This is what I used. I gathered up the requirements first..

and cut up the chipboard and inked the flourish with stamp ink..  and created this..
That one was a great challenge to only use what was in the countdown criteria..

 Thanks so much for your visit and I always love reading your comments too..

  5. Oh gosh - if had to do five layouts in a week I would have a conniption! They are all so different and so interesting. If you forced me to choose a favourite it would be the 4th one with the red black and yellow. It's so striking. Thanks for the inspiration :D
