Scrap The Boys July Challenge

This month at Scrap The Boys challenge blog, they challenged us to scrap with school photos....not always an easy task using those 'formal' type photos. I picked my favourite one of Sam that was taken in preschool oh-so-many years ago.
Here's how it turned out....

I can finally share this layout.....

This is the Black & White + One layout I did for the Scrapbooking Memories competition for the Brisbane Scrapbook and Papercraft Convention & Expo last month. I was lucky enough to be chosen as one of the 20 finalists, and so off went my layout to Brisbane for voting by the visitors to the Expo. My layout didn't prove to be the most popular over the weekend, but I was thrilled none-the-less to have gotten into the Top 20. Congratulations to the winner Lyn Apelt and runner-up Gilly Lester!





This is one of my favourite layouts I have done this year, and it's nice to be able to finally share it here on my blog.

Scrapchat Colour Challenge

Here is a layout I did this weekend for a colour challenge on the Scrapchat forum sponsored by the gorgeous and talented Alison Callcott. The challenge was to use the colours lime green, hot pink and navy blue with a design requirement of hexagons and an extra requirement of 'definitions' to be interpreted as we see fit. Here's what I came up with using some photos I took at the recent Scrapchat retreat dress-up night....


And a close up of the embellishments....
