Joy of sets Tic tac toe

Here is the challenge for Joy of Sets

I chose the left hand vertical column.
Yellow, square and plaid.

I started with a yellow square card. Then I found red plaid so used that as my background.
I added a yellow square,a smaller patterned square and a square brad.
Lastly I added the word "Happy" to turn it into a birthday card.

123 challenge and Challenge #1 CKC.

My next page is for 123 challenge blog.
I used to be on their design team.

My photo is featuring an exhibition we saw in New Zealand named Head [case] by Julia Morison.
They are pottery heads with exaggerated features and appendages. It was quite weird.
Walking around inside the room you started to feel like you were being watched!

Using a blue spotted paper and a plain yellowish Fancy Pants My family paper, I set out my background.I matted my photo on the blue paper then added 2 pieces of gold vine on either side.I put my title on the left as it was too big for the original spot.
I added my journaling squares, a yellow tag, plus some enamel dots and 2 circular paperclips from my kit.
Here is the CKC challenge: Our challenge today is to create a project that uses the tabs and clips. It can be a tab you created and stamped on, put a sticker on or just a plain tab. The clip can be one of the many shapes that are out there

Here are close ups of my 2 paperclips.

*******************************************************************************
As it turns out the following layout also features paperclips and a tab.
Note the use of the full stops as decoration.

Freshly made sketches & Christmas card throwdown

At Freshly made sketches they are celebrating 400 sketches.



As I'm currently making Christmas cards I adapted it.

The white paper on the left is glittered and the tree that looks brown is gold. Much nicer in real life!

At Christmas card throwdown


Here is their colour combination.
I used a tan background (closest I had to copper) then a turquoise patterned paper and finally a square of metallic royal blue. As my embellishment I used a gingerbread man and my sentiment has a copper border.

Li'l red wagon

At Li'l red wagon they want us to be inspired by a book.

I started with a handmade paper. I inked it slightly with pink.
Next I layered pink patterned paper, pale green cardstock and a transparency featuring Alice in Wonderland.
The felt teacup ,the sentiment and the flower I made from dress pattern tissue paper complete the shabby chic look.

I've also entered it at Crafty Creations.

Scraproom Jumpstart sketch

Here's the jumpstart sketch at The Scraproom on Facebook.

I've used 4 papers from my Counterfeit Kit on this to document a ride on a gondola up a hillside in Christchurch NZ.

I've used a frame in the kit that says "Happy little moments". My title sums up the exhilaration you feel going up the cables.

Instead of flowers, I used silver circle stickers to reflect the metallic elements in the photos.

************************************************************************
Meanwhile at Christmas crafts all your 'round they want a tree on our project.
I've used some scrapbooking paper on this card that features a stylized tree. I added my sentiment plus some green pearls of various sizes to complete the look.

ABC Christmas

At ABC Christmas we had the letters P, Q R.
I've chosen R is for reindeer.

I'll admit to some re-birthing on this. I cut the reindeer and Santa from an old Christmas card and the red shiny card sentiment from yet another. The background paper and ric-rac are new.

Use your stuff

I'm now on Use your stuff design team

The current challenge is "Inspired by Disney". Please join in the challenge.

Here's my layout.

I drew the bird on this layout and used some very old patterned paper that came in Scrapbooking Memories magazine. It just proves if you keep something long enough it will be useful.
