Layouts - 2017

A few of my layouts from this year. I try & scrap most weekends, this is how I relax after a busy week. For inspiration I quite often start with a sketch or a challenge.

Me with my girls on New Years Eve  last year,
the papers are from the
 gorgeous 49 and Market Heirloom collection,
with a Blue Fern chippie & assorted flowers.

       Aimee's birthday in April, I have used a D-Lish Scraps 
Just add Paper kit, they are very cute 
but postage to NZ is a killer so I get them
 sent to my sister's place in Australia
 to pick up when I visit.

Another D-Lish Scraps kit, they

 always include a small stencil

which is the butterflies I have

 texture pasted around the photo.

 Loving the Prima Rossibelle 

collection & I finally scrapped this 

photo from my 50th birthday (a

 couple of years ago 😉)

      A layout of one of my furbabies, 

using Bo Bunny Petal Lane, 

I love love love this colour 

combo: black, white, pink

 & yellow, this super cute

 Charms Creation doggy charm

 was perfect for this layout.

We had to use a big title
for this challenge

         

This one was a sketch challenge & I
used my new Darkroom Door raindrop
stamp & the Kaisercraft
Wildflower collection.

Australian photo shoot

My girls & I visited my sister on the Sunshine Coast in Nov15, we had a lovely week with her & while we were there she arranged for us all to have a photoshoot at the beach. It was a lot of fun & we ended up with some beautiful photos. These layouts are all using those photos & there are still more I want to scrap.

Layouts to Sept 2015

These are some of the layouts I have completed this year to end of September, there are a few more from the Scrap Away retreat which I haven't photgraphed yet so I will add those later. 

This first lot are from a fantastic four days away in Hanmer in August with scrappy friends Nic & Heidi:

For a Scraplift challenge, I scraplifted Juliet Sheriff, a local lady I met at the retreat in March, I love her style:

And some that I did at the Scrap Away retreat:

Scrappin Patch June Sketch & CMH # 48

 

 

I am combining this post for both challenges because I have once again left it to the last minute to upload these photos even though I finished the layouts last week... :)  anyway:

 

My first layout is for the Scrappin Patch June Sketch:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have used Echo Park Hello Summer range, although alot of the strips behind the photo are actually washi tape.

 

   and my second layout is for Challenge Me Happy # 48 which is a recipe challenge for which you had to use:

More than 1 photo
Sewing
2 or more patterned papers
Washi tape
Sequins
Anchor

 

 

 

I am not actually sure what the background pp is as it was one I had had awhile & had cut off the bottom strip, my second pp is in the title of the diecut of the anchor & the arrow.
