A few more layouts done this month......

Here are 3 more layouts I have done in the last couple of weeks....no particular purpose....just playing with paper, inks and glue.






Shits & Giggles March Challenge

Here is my art journal entry for this month's Shits & Giggles challenge....lots of fun with paints and inks and mists.....





Here's the inspiration for this month's challenge....

A2Z Scraplets Sketch Challenge

It seems to have been a month of sketches for me this month. Here's another one I did for the A2Z Scraplets March challenge....





Here is the sketch that the layout is based on....again I turned the sketch on it's side....

Stuck?! Sketches March Challenge

Here's another layout I did of my great-niece Tayla, this time with her brother Jaden as well. This one is for a sketch challenge over at the challenge blog Stuck?! Sketches.






The layout was based on this sketch which I turned on it's side....

Scrapbook Savvy Sketch Challenge

This month's Sketch Challenge at Scrapbook Savvy really appealed to me, so thought I would give it a go. The gorgeous bubba in the photo is my great-niece who lives in South Africa....






Here is the sketch which was inspired by another Savvy contributor's layout in the gallery.....



I've been busily taking lots of photos today of all my projects from the last couple of weeks, so stayed tuned for some more uploads.

Felt Flowers

Here is a layout I did earlier in the year for Chelley Bean Designs as part of the creative team there featuring Chelle's gorgeous handmade felt flowers.
The photo was taken of my friend's daughter Georgia, when they came to stay at my place after Christmas, and she forgot to put on sunscreen for her day at the beach. She was so miserable....but I loved the colours in the photo which inspired me to do the layout.



....and a close-up of the flowers...



These flowers come in a huge range of colours....



....and are sold in packs of 3 of the same colour for $3 at the Chelley Bean Designs etsy store.
There are lots of other beautiful handmade items up for sale too.
