Scrap Therapy A-Z Challenge "D"

The first letter this month at Scrap Therapy is the letter "D". So of course how could I go past Daddy!!I used the Oliver range from Basic Grey and used my cricut to make the leaves. I had this chipboard title of Daddy, and I covered it with MM paint, and added a little flower. The other criteria was to have a frame, which I did by double stitching around the photo.

Challenge Heaven Nov Sketch Challenge

The sketch challenge at Challenge Heaven this month is this:

And this is what I did with it. I squished it down to a 8.5 x 11, but I think you can still see the sketch. I used Crate Paper, some old old old letter stickers, my around the block letter gun thing, and my cricut to make the cute little sandcastle.

Challenge Heaven Nov Challenge

The theme challenge over at Challenge Heaven this month is "Summer Lovin" - to use bright summer colours. So this is my take on it using bright yellows blues greens and oranges. I have used some Echo Park, Chip Chop Shop doileys and some of my handmade buttons with some thickers. Even tho the phots weren't taken in summer, i think it looks bright and summery.

Out of the Hat November challenge

I haven't managed to get an OOTH challenge finished for a while. I always seem to start it and then not remember to get it done by the 25th!!! So I made sure this was done early this month!! The criteria this month is
   1. Spots or Stripes
   2. 2 different punches
   3. make a flower
This is my take on it. I used Crate Paper, Prima and BG letters, and some of my handmade buttons. I used a kaiser and an MS punch as well as a kaiser punch to make my flowers.

Scrapbooking Top 50 November CC Ants Challenge

Ants challenge for the CC over at SBT50 this month is "Fashion". A layout about fashion - I went straight for the little princess for this one! And I had been meaning to scrap these photos for a while now.... I used MME with some thickers and Cosmo letters.

Scrapbooking Top 50 November CC

I got to be the guest DT at SBT50 for the CC this month. The challenge I did was for the theme '"Spring Carnival'. So my criteria was to use green as a main colour, circles and doodling. This is what I came up with using Crate Paper and Echo Park along with some of my buttons, some kaiser flowers and Purple Pumpkin twine. I really love how this layout turned out.

123 November Challenge

Wow - Nov is flying by and things are off to a slow start. Not sure how many challenges I will get done this month as it is a month jam packed of events for my little family.

I have a couple of layouts on the go - and managed to get one finished. I wasn't too keen when I read the 123 challenge this month - Grey + "Please"+Unusual Stamping. I am not a big fan of grey, and never go looking for it. I found some nice grey in the MME Lil Robots range, and when looking at my photos with the word "please"in mind, I found these and it all just fell into place!! Don't you love it when that happens!! So this is it using MME, thickers, k&company letters, Bo Bunny letters, some hessain, some of my handmade buttons, some leaves (can't remember from where) and some kaiser flowers that I stamped with kaisers bubble wrap stamp.
