Scrap the Girls - February Challenge

I hadn't participated in the Scrap The Girls challenge till - now!!

See the beautiful mood board -


and this is what I created...





Started with a sheet of Kaisercraft 'Green Apple' (CD164) and swiped some Faber Castell 'Glass bead glitter gel' through a Prima elements 'Harlequin' stencil and dry! Sprayed Heidi Swapp 'Citron and Seafoam' through a mask (Unknown?)  Randomly swiped Croco 008 and dry! Spritzed the Imaginarium Chipboard frames and heat embossed the Prima Wood frames (various powders inc Stampendous and Stampin' Up!) Inka gold in Jade was rubbed across the Scrapmatts arrow - clusters of My2Angels flowers and sugar beads (love them!) and a few bits and pieces I found along the way...including a K and company 'metal ring' and a button from a shirt a bought that day!!


This outfit was a gift when Katelyn was born... it took her a few months to fit into it - so cute!

Blue Fern Studios - February challenge


I LOVE Blue Fern Studios!!

...and when I saw the Sketch for this month...







 I created this...







When I visited Scrap Elegance (when Kylie Obst came to Queensland to teach...and climb stairs!!) I saw that Tenisha had the beautiful Blue Fern Studios 'Ombre Dreams' paper range... when I saw Susan's dream with the blues and yellows I had to have it! I already had the BFS 'Olga's Balloon' chipboard which was altered with Stampendous and Lindy's Stamp Gang embossing powders.
I trimmed a couple of strips of paper doily and adhered them across the paper, along with various ribbon, lace and trim. I mixed together a little Whipped Spackle and Gelato 'Buttercream'





and swiped this through a Heidi Swapp stencil. Applied some Finnabair 'Clear Gesso' and some white Gesso over the background. The Faber Castell 'Glass Bead Glitter Gel' was swiped through a Prima stencil... and dry! Well, almost dry (no patience!) a spritz of Tattered Angels 'Banana Pudding' and Dylusions 'White Linen' here and there... and also on the My2angels 'scallop felt frame' and some random acrylic pieces (and with some Adirondack alcohol inks)
The embellishing - the tickets are Pink Paislee 'Hope Chest'....there is Manor House Creations flowers and frame...Prima wood pieces...Maya Road 'star pins'....My2angels 'Sugar Beads in blue' and 'Circle rhinestone'...couple of white enamel charms from Sharon...a Martha Stewart ribbon bow...and a couple of yellow safety pins and dragonfly brads....finishing with a sprinkle of Stampin' Up! enamel dots!!
This photo of Katelyn in a Bevis family heirloom dress is one of my favourite (her Aunty also wore this dress!)

Scrap Around the World - February challenge


Did you see the Scrap Around the World 'Inspiration board' for February?

My favourite colour... Green!!


...and this is what I created -


Starting with a piece of cream cardstock (Kaisercraft) I sprayed Heidi Swapp 'Seafoam and Citron' and 'stamped' the mask into my journal (to be finished?) More spraying with the Kaszazz 'hessian' and then Viva Croco through Balzer Designs 'Cursive' and left to crack!
The chipboard Heart (unknown) was heat embossed with a combination of Stampendous, Stampin' Up! and Lindy's Stamp Gang powders and then adhered to the page. The Dusty Attic title and other cipcoard were also heat embossed with a mixture - secret recipe ;) lol
Thickers made up the remaining title and some clusters were created with Manor House Creations flowers, a resin frame, butterfly and key charm from my friend Sharon. The edges were swiped with Inka Gold in 'Jade'. Then just a few spots of Perfect Pearls and Kindyglitz!

Our Emily was such a cheeky girl to photograph!! This was her Easter dress!!

Dusty Attic - February challenge


The Dusty Attic challenge for February is -






Such beautiful shades, so this is what I did -


My favourite people... EVER! My Grandparents - my Mum's Mum and Dad.

While I was looking at the 12x12 packet of Dusty Attic "de Vine frame' I couldn't help but feel it was such a waste to simply discard the 'outer' edge... so I used it - misting, staining, crackling and rubbing it with Inka Gold! The cardstock was misted with Tim Holtz Distress spray 'Antique Bronze', 'Seedless Preserve' and Memories Mist in 'Red' and 'Ameretto' - water was added, wait a sec then paper towel to 'remove' some colour. Aunty Sandra returned from the US with an American Crafts 'Embossed paper pad', I misted it and adhered it behind the photo and with the smaller Dusty Attic frame over a piece of Burlap Paper. Viva Croco in copper was smeared through a leafy stencil (old!) - to finish a cluster of Manor House Creations, Kaisercraft and some 'Op Shop bonus' flowers, & Doiley! Chipboard title was stained and rubbed with Inka Gold.

Enjoy, Alison x
