Scrapping Outback - September challenge 2017

Hello September!!

The team at Scrapping Outback has a lovely colour pallette this month

The 'rules' are to start with a sheet of white,

use Navy tones, Grey and Kraft,

and must include chipboard (I always have chipboard on every layout, so this is easy!!)

So, I sprinkled some Lindy's Magicals in a vertical strip on the right hand side, flicked some Distress Spray and swiped the Oxide ink pad around the edge for a border.

A D-lish Scraps doily, some layers of 49 & Market paper, The Resin Rainbow doily (from a subscription kit) an old acetate camera from Maya Rd, some Prima flowers, a couple of Rosie's medallions and a few pearls.

Thanks for visiting,

My Friends...from SENZ

It's been TOO long since I participated in the

Scrapping Outback challenge

so,

I collected some bits,

printed some photos,

prioritised an hour

and...

My Friends....from SENZ

Some beautiful IMAGINARIUM DESIGNS

And some pieces from The Resin Rainbow

Some butterflies

...and the Inspiration picture looked like this

Think I did pretty well with the colours?

I took into account lots of white, grey and a spot of yellow too!!

Thanks for visiting,

Scrapping Outback - April challenge 2017

Hooray, it's a NEW month, 

which means NEW challenges

Including the

SCRAPPING OUTBACK challenge

Hot Pink, Light Pink and a touch of Green!!

You must have a white base AND chipboard,

so I choose some of my favourite pieces from

Imaginarium Designs

and some pink flowers...

Together is a beautiful place to be..



I've sprinkled some Lindy's magical shakers around the edge to form a border - a touch of green..



The title from Imaginarium Designs was smooshed around a puddle of Marker Maniacs mist - I love how the mica has pooled giving a variegated look.



This Imaginarium Designs flourish piece was also smooshed!!
A couple of Heidi Swapp banner strips from my stash were misted with Marker Maniacs, a bit of muslin to tuck around the flowers from The Vintage Chicks Club and some crystal stems from Scrapping with Style at TJ's to finish it off.

Photo is from Shaz and Al's Retreat at Coopers Colonial motel a few years ago... such a lovely bunch of ladies!! We shared some laughs, participated in challenges and made some lasting friendships!! The theme was Christmas in July and we also celebrated Sharon's birthday with a cake made by 'The Sweeter side if Life', Thank you to Shelley for arranging the cake. Gloria dressed up as Mrs Claus too, so much fun!!

Scrapping Outback - March challenge

Oh yes, I have been having some fun on the last day of the March..

Thank you ex-cyclone Debbie?

I had been meaning to check out the 

SCRAPPING OUTBACK

challenge for March much earlier in the month,

but here we are on the 31st and I'm blogging!!

The mood board is 

Lime green and Yellow!!

Fresh, right?

and the rules are you need to have CHIPBOARD on your page too

Love This

I started with a sheet of white, sprinkled over the new Lindys Magical shakers - the 'yellow and green' ones? I then sprayed the 'lemon' Marker Maniacs mist to activate the powders - it is SO shimmery!!

Love This is a piece of chipboard from the Imaginarium Designs collection - inked in Kaisercraft 'Saffron' - I think I'll add a coat of Glossy Accents?

How good are all those embellishments!! 

I purchased the D-lish Scraps 'Fresh Cuts' "Just Add Paper" kit in February and totally ran out of days to participate (Sorry Amanda!!) but then the Scrapping Outback challenge is the perfect match - I even used the floral stencil included with some Whipped Spackle.

Photo is of 3 gorgeous sisters - Ciara, Shakaela and Taneisha a few years ago - a lovely memory for them all to cherish!!
