Sketchabilities #153

Another of Karan's amazing sketches is up on the Sketchabilities blog. These monthly sketches run from the 15th of each month, until the 14th of the following month, so head over to the blog for lots of great inspiration and join in the challenge.
 Here's my take on this month's sketch, my granddaughter engrossed in her painting task! :)

CSI #262

Case File #262 is up on the blog at CSI. The evidence I have used for my DT take: the colour scheme, the cat theme,  whimsy elements, flowers.

This is such a cute case file! I am looking forward to seeing lots of different takes on this.
Happy weekend!

Made to Scrap and Clique

There is a fun moodboard at Made to Scrap-the Aussie way this month. My DIL recently sent me this pic taken at Taronga Zoo and it jumped out at me when I saw this challenge!

I also had this totally gorgeous print and cut file from Clique Kits that I wanted to use.





                                               
The Clique Kits cut file: How beautiful is this?

                                            
I used some of the little 'paint splashes' as backing for the little black cut file flowers. I was thrilled with how well the file cut!

                                  

The Made to Scrap moodboard: I loved the watercolour and flourish effects, but had to use the giraffe image. 

                                         

Aussie products I have used include a Charm's Creations felt circle with button, Cocoa Vanilla papers and embellies from the Creative Escape, the tulip row cut file from Cut to You and a Funky Flair.

                              

Happy Spring/Autumn everyone!!

Happy-Studio Challenges, More than Words

This layout is of my very happy little granddaughter and is for the challenges at More than Words, to be inspired by the word 'sunshine' and to use a pop of yellow and the challenge at The Studio Challenges to use the word 'Happy'.



I have used a cut file, the word 'sunshine' and fussy cut papers from the Hipkit Club kits and the background paper is from the Heidi Swapp, Pineapple Crush collection. The word 'Happy' is a Rosie's stamp and die.

Have a great weekend,

STB-September

Hi everyone! The September challenge is up at Scrap the Boys and it is all about babies! The DT has come up with some very cute baby boy pages for inspiration, so head over and check them out.

My layout is of a very cute 'borrowed' baby!! He is the son of my daughter's friend. The cut file and papers are from the Cocoa Vanilla, Boys Rule collection. The 'x' and 'o' are from Charm's Creations.



Hope you find time over the weekend to hunt out those cute photos of your baby boy and join the fun!
Cheers,
Sue
