ARCHISCRAPS and MORE THAN WORDS MAY..

Hello there,
I hope this finds you well..  I have been busy this last week with my Dad having been in hospital, thankfully he is home again now.. but going out to the hospital several days as well as the usual things sure does make the week fly by!

I have to put up my example for the May challenge for ARCHISCRAPS which is to use this photo for inspiration as well as layering and something reflective..

The inspiration..
 

and my card.. I have layers and I have sequins for something reflective.. The kaisercraft die I have used reminded me of the roof structure of the building, and I have used Scrapmatts chipboard sentiment and chain circle..




And today I had a lovely time sitting and scrapping for this months challenge for MORE THAN WORDS May..
which is..
to use the word MOMENT and clocks on your layout..
I decided to use a photo I found of my Son in his year 12 school photo.. I cant believe this was taken in 2002..  Where do the years go??

some closer views..

Lots of layers, clocks and the word moment..

 The chipboard was covered with black gesso then some ink from a stamp pad added for an aged look.

Moment..
I had a lot of fun creating the back ground with ripped papers, die cuts, stamping and clock cut outs..  I needed some scrap time so thank you to MORE THAN WORDS for a great challenge this month..

Thanks so much for coming by, and I do appreciate the comments you leave me too..

  5. You are a dynamo with your amazing output !! Sorry to hear your Father has been ill and I hope he is well on the mend by now. Looove the grungy boy layout. The clocks are a great motif for the last year of school and what a handsome Son you have. I'm not sure what I would have done with Archiscraps, but you make it look easy. Thanks for the inspiration. Finally, we have had rain - a good soak of 25 mls and crisp 20C days. I love Winter :D
