Amazing - Scrap The Boys March Challenge

Last post of my DT stuff I'm sharing today with you a layout I created for the Scrap the Boys challenge blog.
The challenge for this month is to scrap a layout using , Green, Blue & Yellow
 
This is my layout...

 
You are amazing, just the way you are
 

I have had a Kaiser acetate overlay I have been wanting to use for ages, and I found it worked so well with this criteria and edge I was after with this layout.


 I drizzled watered down paint on top of the overlay for a cool effect.
The paper strips I used for this layout are underneath and on top of the acetate to create the layered look.
I also used Scrapmatts chipboard star and a flair button from Greatest View
 
 
Get creating and upload your layouts to the Scrap The Boys blog before the end of the month to be in the chance to win some awesome prizes!!!

Strong, Smart, Brave - Scraplounge March Mood Board

I was asked by Shazz, the owner of Scrap Lounge to create a layout based on the March mood board that was designed by her talented friend Kym.

I decided to take inspiration from the warm autumn colour scheme and the paint brushes to create my example below...

Mad About Scrappin February Layouts


I was so excited this month as I have become apart of the Design team for Mad About Scrappin.
 
This month we have a wonderful sketch created by DT member Amy Prior.

 
Here is my take on the sketch...
 
'Friends are a priceless treasure'
 
 
This layout is of my partner in craft/crime Tracey and myself at a retreat we were at a couple of years ago.
 
 
I also created a layout as a product spotlight for the Teresa Collins Paper range You are my happy.
 
'You are my Happy'

D-Lish Scraps February Inspirational Board Challenge DT Layout

Hello, its been a long time between posts...
My family and I a few days before Christmas were told we needed to move out of the rental property we were in as the owners 'circumstances' had changed and they had sold the house they were living in and wanted to move into the house we were in.
Our lease wasn't up till April, however DT was getting calls every day asking if we had found somewhere. Over Christmas and New Year it was very hard as there were not many places available that suited our needs....as it is we have had to go for a 3 bedroom home instead of a 4 and DT and I are squished into a room together for my craft room and his office. On the Plus side of things this new house has a pool which ahs been great with this warm weather we have been having.
So we moved a few weeks ago, and have only just sorted the craft room, and computers/internet so I can get online properly. I still have a stack of boxes to unpack but Ill get to them when I can.
Anyway this month was my last month on the D-lish Summer Inspirational board DT. This months board is called 'Love is' and has some really great inspiration to use on your layouts.
Love is



And this is my layout...
'I love you more than words can say'


You still have time to enter...

Just head on over to D-lish Scraps and check it out.
