Lets get shabby's 2nd birthday layout challenge #25

The photo features 3 concentric circle plates plus (I thought) a grey serviette and silver fork.So, I went with the colours grey/black/white and silver,echoing these shapes. Background paper is Bella Ancestry Progeny.I used music and chipboard(inked silver).I also used the negative of a larger chipboard to paint the pattern on the largest concentric circle-it was fleur de lis and leaves.We also need the number 2 and as this is the 2nd layout of this holiday group I called it holiday group 2.I was tempted to add some pale blue but decided to leave it as it was.

Stuck?! sketches entry.

This is my entry for Stuck?! sketches second June challenge.I painted the backing cardstock with white dots then used 2 different pattern papers,a giant chipboard button plus a scrapmatts corset with matching rhinestones.I journalled using dymo tape ans the title is a play on words "Cause it's me" became corsets me.

Show us your stuff

Thena and I met up again after saying goodbye in 1976.To us,we still feel the same. So I decided to call this layout what wrinkles!?

The criteria for show us your stuff was teal and cream with a handmade item...the crochet flower. I also hand cut the bottom edging of the teal strip.

Lollipop ladies lick the beaters

I was inspired for the lollipop ladies challenge by the actual dripping chocolate.I cut the brown cardstock to look like drips running down the page.I've added metallic hearts,small silver brads and a loopy brad behind the string bow.

black with pale blue and hearts

Here's my entry for Black with 2 which was pale blue and hearts.I used a scrapmatts black bevilled edge heart plus another chipboard heart on to which I pasted a photo and edged it in lace.This is my cousins grandson,Henry.

off to a retreat

I'm attending a retreat at Branxton NSW this weekend with "Scrapbooking from scratch".
There will be some classes as well as free scrapping time.We are sleeping in caravans so I'm taking all my winter woolies.Hopefully I will have some great layouts to display on here when I return.

Anna's sketch

The Fozz felts are actually pink and match the rest of the layout well.I've noticed felts don't scan properly.I used antique laces for the large flower and hand dyed the 2 smaller crochet flowers.Papers are Websters-Lullaby lane puppies and pigtails and Martha Stewart. Butterflies and label outline are scrapmatts.Border punch is by fiskars and I pinecone inked the edges.I went for the olde worlde look.
