ARCHI-SCRAPS & KRAFT+ February..

A pinch and a punch for the first of another month......  crazzzyyyy!

Anyhoo lots of new challenges going up on the first day of a new month! And I would like to share two that I am on the design teams of..

The challenge for ARCHI-SCRAPS is such an easy peasy one and it is to.....
use lots of colors....  you can create cards, layouts, canvas, whatever you desire...   I choose to do some cards, can never have too many cards for those occasions that come up..

my cards..
 I have used really old papers and the chipboard pieces are all Scrapmatts..

And the challenge for KRAFT+ is another fantastic one...  and it is..

to be inspired by the sketch and use the colors and put it on a base of Kraft... The designers this month have excelled themselves and you need to check them out HERE!!!!!!!!  
And it does not need to be a beachy theme either.... however having said that, I was inspired to do a beachy layout..  from our holiday last year with our dogs at the beach...

some closer views..

Kaisercraft papers.. dies..


The best holiday..
I enjoyed creating for this one!!

Well another month is here, thanks so much for coming on by, and thank you to those who leave a comment, I do appreciate each one!! Have a great day!!

  4. ADORE your cards, they are so bright and happy...& the chippy is really nice in there. Just goes to show you don't need new stash to shine!! And your K+ LO is simply stunning....I think it sorta does lend itself to beachy pages, even tho you don't have to! Loving the anchors in there....really gorgeous take on the challenge. How does it feel being on the Other side of the Fence??!!! AND I guess it's still hot there.... it's cooled down here. For now. Sunday back up to 36, I think. I'm soooooo 'over it'.

  6. Well you are off and running in February with these gorgeous projects. Love the vibrant and cheery cards featuring the Scrapmatts goodies and your super cool beachy page. The Kaiser papers and marine accents are perfect for the "Coastal chic" theme. Oh, I could do with a day at the beach right now to get away from the heat. TFS

  14. Yeah we are melting here too... awful but today it looks like it might rain. Two years of drought ... we really need it now :D I adore those cards they are just lovely. Your layout for K+ is just gorgeous. I do love your style. You manage to use mm so that it doesn't overpower your layouts. Just fabulous. I want to try and play with both of these challenges this month :D
