Sketches in Thyme.
Here's my last layout for this month using my Counterfeit Kit. It is using a sketch at Sketches in Thyme.
I had these 2 photos of kookaburras sitting on our street sign so made the bottom photo part of the title.
I've used the last of the rub-ons, 3 tickets, a tassel, enamel dots, plus a mix of word types in my title.

CKC Challenge #3
Here is a sketch from Paper Issues that forms the challenge #3at Counterfeit Kit Challenge.
I chose a paper featuring sunglasses from my kit. I then cut offcuts from my earlier layouts plus a couple of co-ordinating strips of paper to do my second layer. I used a large title I had plus smaller rub-ons as my words.
AS embellishments I used a crochet embellishment I won recently plus some Autumn Lane flowers. I then glued a wood veneer sewing machine and dressmaker's model in my cluster plus smaller Prima flowers. There's a strip of ribbon down the right-hand edge as well.

Scraproom layouts X 2
Here's 2 layouts I did for The Scraproom group. The first had to use items with the letters in WEB. I used W= wood veneers, wine E= enamel dots B=bling, bands of colour.
The second was for Freaky Fast Formula. I kept it simple but used more of the rub-ons I put in my kit.

Path of Positivity card
We are asked to make a seasonal card using nontraditional colours at Path of Positivity Challenge.
I've made a Christmas card using browns and golds.
I'm sure it will be appreciated by someone.

Seize the birthday
This morning, I have made a card for Seize the birthday. The theme is splish splash.
I got out my silky crayons. You colour with the crayon first, then use a water paint brush to spread the coloured paint. I created a pond for my swan to sit in and shelter her cygnets. After fussy cutting the picture, I adhered it to the card then added my sentiment. It will be given to a teaching friend on her 60th birthday.
