Made to scrap - October

This month at Made to Scrap we have a sketch challenge. I have used quite a few Aussie products on this layout including a tab from Charms creations, a flair from Funky Flair studio, flowers and stamp from Kaisercraft, felt embellies and resin arrows from Rainbow splendour and a beautiful flower wreath from Cut to You which finished it off nicely. (The stamping around the edges is actually straight but when I took the photo the page warped a bit!)

Made to scrap - September

Made to Scrap this month is a beautiful mood board (see below). I was also lucky enough to use a gorgeous flourish cut file from Cut to You from Gwen Designs. I originally made a background that I didn’t end up using, so I cut it up and put it behind the cut file. I think it looks quite effective! I have also used a Flutterby designs title, Cocoa Vanilla ephemera, Charms creations XO, and Burdy’s embellies button. Thanks for visiting!

The gorgeous mood board. 

Funky flair - August

This is my latest share for Funky Flair studio. I have only used a cutout photo once before and I don’t think it worked as well as it has in this layout. I think it creates a sense of fun. The bike stamp and wood veneer tie in nicely with the cute bike flair, all on the mixed media background. 

Thanks for dropping by. 

Kraft Plus - August

This month's challenge at Kraft Plus the challenge was to be inspired by terracotta.  I used some paint called 'raw sienna' to represent the terracotta colour and there is terracotta soil in the background of the photo. 

Made to Scrap - August Sketch

This month for Made to Scrap we have a sketch for your page inspiration. Instead of using one large star, I used several down the side of the page. I love the effect of the washi tape on the border, it is sort of see through.  I also like how the orange colour of the paint I used on the background matches the orange in the photo. Thanks for dropping by! 

Funky flair studio - July

This month I have used some papers from Kaisercraft’s Fleur collection to make this simple yet fresh page which I have topped off with a floral flair.

Made to Scrap

A new month, a new challenge, a new scrapbooking group! Show us your Stuff has joined forces with Scrapbooking Top 50 Australia and is now Made to Scrap - The Aussie Way. The first challenge is stars and sequins. ⭐️ 🌟 

Kraft Plus - June

This month’s challenge had me thinking and I decided to go outside the box 📦 a little bit and not do any actual weaving myself, but include a lot of weaving elements Tom my layout instead. There is a stamped weaving pattern, patterned paper, hessian, chipboard, two different die cuts, and charms creations with hessian and woven fabric. So I think I have covered it! 

Funky flair studio - June

This Wednesday Funky Flair studio are having a new kit release. I was lucky enough to receive a kit early and have made two layouts from the kit. You can see the first kit below, I will put the second layout up later in the week. 

Show us your stuff - June

Show us your Stuff this month is a challenge to create what you like! I loved this Ken Oliver colour burst paper and took it from there! I added some mixed media to the background but didn’t want to change it too much because of the awesome colours that were already there. I have used two Charms creations on my page - a heart and a tab, and a flair from Funky Flair Studio for my handmade items. 

Kraft Plus - May

It’s a date! An easy challenge this month, just put a date somewhere on your page. 📅 

 I decided to use a special date - my wedding day! Scroll down for some close ups of my layout. Thanks for dropping by. 

Show us your stuff - May

Show us your Stuff have a Tic Tac Toe Challenge this month. I followed a diagonal line and used wood veneers, buttons and die cuts, amongst other things too! Hand made items from Charms creations, Funky Flair Studio, Burdy Embellies and Corbett Creations. 

Funky flair studio - May

My share for Funjy Flair Studio this month is a layout with some Artvo photos of both my girls in an interactive display. I have used 7 dots studio paper and I thought the musical flair was perfect for this page! 

Kraft Plus - April

This month at Kraft Plus we have a recipe challenge. It certainly made me think about what I was going to do -especially the something ‘borrowed’.

 This is what I used:

Something old - dandelion diecut is from an old book (The Great Gatsby).

Something new - I used Flutterby designs 'We run the world kit'.

Something borrowed - I ‘borrowed’ the use of the big shot at Scrap 2 relax at our monthly crop night.

Something blue - I used Dylusions after midnight paint on my background and blue flair from Funky flair studio.

Funky flair studio - April

My layout for Funky Flair Studio this month has a couple of photos of my girls from Artvo when we visited earlier this year. I have lots of photos to scrap, so this is one of many to come! I used the colours in the photo to create a mixed media background, using watercolours, paint and sprays. Thanks for dropping by! 

Show us your stuff - April

For Show us your stuff this month, it's all about me! Well, you have you scrap a page about yourself, but my page is about me! 😂 

The photo is from a few years ago, when my eldest was just a newborn, it was taken on my 33rd birthday. 🎂

I have lots of handmade items on my layout including a charms heart from Charms creations, a flair from Funky Flair Studio, a button from Burdy's Embellies and a felt heart from Rainbow Splendour.

Show us your stuff - March

I almost forgot to share my layout for March for Show us your Stuff!  Here it is. :)

I have used some of the Indigo Blue kit and two gorgeous flairs on my page this month. The photo is of my youngest after having a blue frozen drink and as you can see it turned her tongue blue, matching her gorgeous blue eyes!
