SBT50 November Challenge

The SBT50 challenge this month was a fab mood board. I loved the colours and they worked perfectly with my Scrappy Canary October kit. It even included pineapple paper!

So, here's the mood board:

And my take:

And some close ups. The doily came in my pocket letter (a swap being run over at Scrapping Clearly) from Jen Hall, the camera diecut was part of the kit and that's a Flutterby flair.

I also added a Charms Creations chevron in two shades of pink, a fabulous glittery cog from Burdy's Embellies and a cute heart button I've had since the dawn of my scrapbooking life.

Thanks for stopping by. Tomorrow is a new month and that means new challenges :)

Charms Creations November Challenge

Angus and his friends are taking part in November to raise money awareness for prostate cancer. So the Charms Creations challenged seemed like a perfect match.

Unfortunately as Angus isn't a hairy dude, there hasn't been a lot of mo action! Our weekly progress photo showed little progress so Angus used snapchat to create a mo every man would proud of!

Some close ups. I used a Charms Creations pink and denim arrow.

Part of the challenge was also to use a mo that Charm had included as a little extra in her October orders, I painted this one yellow so it match my LO and the quirky water colour zebra just seemed to suit the page!

Such a fun challenge!

SUYS DT reveal

This month's challenge at Show Us Your Stuff is travel themed. All of the design team's creations have been revealed on the blog so I thought I'd share mine with you and encourage you to give it a go!

So, this is the challenge:

And this is my LO. I chose to use a screen shot I took during the time Zoe was missing after Cyclone Pam. She was trending on Twitter and was the top news story on many newspaper sites. This particular one was the Sydney Morning Herald. I took the screen shots because I thought she'd like to see them when she was found safe and well - I never allowed myself to think we might not get her back in one piece.

My title uses a very popular travel word tropical and I also added nightmare - probably quite another fairly common word used to describe a less than perfect holiday lol. The green paper is a topographical map. My handmade items are a Rainbow Splendour Bow and two Burdy's Embellies arrows.

I also added a D-lish Scraps kraft mini bag and tag, some enamel dots and a random selection of brads stickers from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by. Let me know if you have a go at the challenge. Happy creating!

Simply Delicious!

I loved the black and white just add paper kit from D-lish Scraps this month. It was perfect for a fun photo of my daughter and her boyfriend at their formal last year. I based my LO on the sketch provided too.

And here's a close up of the gorgeous embellies that were included in the kit. And I have heaps left over that I'm sure to put to good use.

I also completed two challenges from the current D-lish cybercrop. Challenge two was to use white space. A boy and his dog :) I used a new grey cloud from Charms Creations - love it!

I also love the D-lish Scraps tags as they're really versatile and come in lots of great colours.

The other challenge I completed was Challenge four - a sketch by the ever-fabulous Sue Plumb.

I altered the sketch slightly as I had three smaller photos I wanted to use of Angus blowing out his Birthday candles.

I used some D-lish scraps feathers and a doily as well a Charms Creations chevron.

I then added some extra details using a new embellishment pack from CTMH that has lots of lovely bits and pieces in gold, brown and black. I then finished the LO off using some sparkles and sequins that I got in my pocketletter from Jen Hall. She sent a mix of blue and gold bits that were just perfect - thanks Jen!

I had the best intentions of doing all four cybercrop challenges but I just didn't make it. Oh well the next crop starts tonight with four new challenges - I can't wait!

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you're looking forward to a fabulous weekend filled with love, laughter and all the good stuff.
