Scrap our stash sketch challenge

 

This is the sketch at Scrap our stash challenge. 

I've recently been to a school centenary and as it was my first school as a teacher I was keen to go.

I met up with several other teachers,including the 4 teachers that  I was on 3rd class with.

I used Kaisercraft "Wandering Ivy" papers and Grace Taylor Banners.

Lasting Memories-Stripes

 We are asked to use striped paper this week at Lasting Memories.

I've gone back to my trip to Europe for this layout, as I had a red and white striped paper that I wanted to use.

 I added touches of gold as it was so ornate inside. There's a gold vine and washi tape with gold and black stripes. Also cream and gold alphas.I'm pleased to use up a sheet of book paper as well on this.

Mystical quote challenge plus Challenge YOUrself

 Scrapbook layouts are always fun to do and this was no exception. 

Mystical scrapbooking have a movie quote challenge and I've chosen an old movie named ALL ABOUT EVE. 

Also Challenge YOUrself has a friends challenge

I started with 2 foiled papers plus 3 photos from my trip to South Australia in March. 

These 2 ladies and I became friends on the trip.

 After adhering the papers,I added 2 tags containing my split title.(Hand written).I added a green swirl from Flourish with a bling.some washi tape plus a tab.

Of course I'm on the layout (top right)

Supplementary kit for remainder of September.

 I've used my September kit so have pulled out the remnants of Anthology kit from February 2019.

Here's what I had left

I kept it together because it centred around the theme of natural things including butterflies,bugs,flowers etc. I will use it for challenges until most of it is used over the remainder of this month. As it is spring here in Australia, it seemed suitable.

******************************************

My first project using this is for Mod Squad challenges where they want a card using Butterflies.

Sparkles Forum wants Autumn colours 

I fussy cut around 3 butterflies and used a matching sentiment on the top.

The background paper was appropriate I thought.

Though it is a spring picture it is using autumn colours on those buttterflies.

Incy Wincy designs and crafty catz.

 I'm now using up smaller offcuts of my kit to make cards. My first is at Incy Wincy designs where they have a "spots,stripes and or checks" challenge.

I used 2 different checks, plus a spotted chiffon ribbon all from my kit. It is to be used as a 90th Birthday card. 

Hope you like it!

My next card is for Crafty Catz weekly challenge where they want a masculine birthday card.

I used 2 blue papers plus blue ribbon, then added a cork rectangle and a frame featuring a heart. I decided not to use a word sentiment.

School at "Use your stuff"

 The newest challenge at Use your stuff is back to school and primary colours.

I've used primary colours on this layout about a school reunion I attended a few years ago.

The big numbers were finally used plus a bracket.

We would love you to join in there.

Lasting Memories -Florals

 At Lasting Memories there is a floral paper challenge.

I had a paper with large flowers so fussy cut those out and used magic mount to make them 3D. I used a smaller floral paper as part of my background. I used a strip of matching pink ribbon across the middle to delineate the split of the 2 papers. There is also subtle small rhinestones between the fussy cut flowers.

The photos are of my 4 month old daughter with my ex husband. (She's 35 now!)
