Build a layout challenge.

 Build a layout at the scraproom group gave me a chance to use up some Counterfeit kit items.

I started with a Basic Grey paper named bow ties green light. The 3 photos are matted on a green coloured paper to match. I used striped ribbon and twine across the top of the layout. I then added my title with part of it overlapping the ribbon. I also added a journal card and 3 wood veneer bird cages.

Off the rails scrapbooking

 

I've made this layout for Off the Rails where they want shades of green plus outdoors.

We were sitting in a park in Montreal watching squirrels running around and up and down the trees.

I tried something different and cut circles around the pictures then arranged them in a pattern.There is also a normal photo of the park plus my title.

Lasting Memories designers.

 The next challenge at Lasting Memories is designers.

Living in Australia we can't always get complete sets of papers for specific designers, but I do have a favourite brand and range which is Kaisercraft "Chapter One". 

If I ever see it on sale, I buy everything!

This layout features all Chapter one items. I love the soft greens with the blacks.

Monochrome angels.Time out challenges

 I've made another card using silhouette shapes from the pack in a previous post. This one is angels and is monochrome. I have a religious friend who is also musical so she will love this.

I'm entering it at Time out challenges where we are asked to pick 2. Mine is Monochromatic and CAS.

Jingle Belles.

 My next card is for Jingle Belles.

I have chosen to go across the middle:-flowers, red, ribbon.

Lasting Memories Tools.

 At Lasting Memories they want us to use a favourite tool. I have chosen my Xyron, which is used to make things stick on to your layout.

As Westminster Abbey is 900 years old I aged the layout using cold tea painted over the background. I also dipped the smaller flower in walnut ink. I decided to add a vine but adhering it to my layout was a challenge till I remembered the Xyron. I fed it through then wound it around my 2 photos' edge. 

silhouette cards

 

A friend gave me this incomplete pack of silhouette cards which has die cuts that are suitable to use on Christmas cards. The previous card was made with pinecones, but here are 2 more I made using snowmen.

I'm entering this at ABC Christmas challenge where they want no stamping.

I'm sure they will be used this Christmas.

This one is for Sketch n scrap.
