Cardz4guyz and Li'l red wagon

Cardz4guyz has a transport theme this week.
I've made 2 cards but the first is the one I'm entering.
It features a golf buggy.
 
My next one is a generic PA card.
 
My 3rd card is for Li'l red wagon
It is a scrap lift of another card, except I used white frames instead of black.  
 
Can you spot the paint chip I used?

Our beautiful world

This week's theme is Outdoor Activity.
Here's the link to the blog http://our--beautiful--world--365.blogspot.com.au/
While we were in Europe we saw people using segways to explore Vienna.
(Thanks Jeanneke for identifying the building)
Here's the photo.

Scrap our stash


As I'm doing my Europe holiday photos this month the scrap our stash challenge appeals.
I've dug out my old atlas from school days again and am using a map.
Holding the ticket on top left of the photos is a star shaped paperclip.

2 cards using scraps

 
At the crop day yesterday, I made 2 cards using mainly scraps or extra pieces.
They qualify as part of this month's kit.

Stuck sketches



I decided to use neutrals from my Counterfeit Kit on this layout.
I started by lightly misting the MME chevron paper with golden yellow.
I followed the sketch very closely and finished with a half pleated flower to decorate the corner.
My journaling will go on afterwards.

Brenda Ragsdale challenges (Grand Divas scrappy place)



I've combined these 2 challenges to create another layout about Holland.
Zaanse Schans is a tourist town set up to resemble "old Holland" complete with windmills etc.


I followed the sketch very closely but as my photos are bigger they cover some of the layering.
My border strip is the ruler under the photos and behind the title.
Unfortunately, my scrapple letters ran out of S's so I used the brown Basic Grey ones instead.

Stick it down

There is a sketch at Stick it down which I've used to make this minimalist layout.


Both photos has lots going on in them, plus I was at a crop day yesterday with very little to use.
Here's my layout featuring a town where my great great grandfather was born.
