SCRAP THE GIRLS Challenge

After a huge break from scrapping, I have finally created something scrap-wise.

Apart from a little bit of crafting and teaching at some local retreats, I have really done nothing for nearly 3 years. Daring to set foot in my craft room with the intention of a huge clean-up (read:clean out), the itch to play started to return.

 Seeing the sketch for this month's Scrap The Girls Challenge blog piqued my interest, and because of an extended break from work after contracting whooping cough and being on home quarantine, I decided to have a go.

 Here is my take on the challenge...


And here is the sketch from Scrap The Girls...


I've used the stunning papers and some embellies from the Cocoa Vanilla Bohemian Dream range. I am so in love with the designs from this awesome Aussie scrap company and bought this range hot off the press a year ago whilst on retreat, but have never gotten around to using them.

Here are some close-ups of my layout...




Thanks for checking out my latest creation. I'm really not sure if this renewed interest continues, as I have been exploring my original art roots in recent times but I'm not really impressing myself so who knows where this journey leads me.
