Scraproom Group SKETCH challenge

My next layout is for The Scraproom group and we are asked to use letters from the word, SKETCH.

So mine are

S=spots

K=Kaisercraft paper and cardstock

E= Envelope to contain journalling

T= tearing

C=cardstock

H= hand written journalling

I had some of the paper on the left hand side remaining , so I made a card for Inspire create challenges

Their sketch looks like this

and here's my card.

Country view challenges and Cupcake inspirations.

At Country View challenges they have a sea themed challenge and at Cupcake inspirations, there is a similar theme.

THE SEA

Using a navy Kaisercraft paper from the Journey collection as my background ,I mounted my 4 photos on another blue paper. Next I added the yellow band which says If you want to know how much I love you, count all the waves in the sea.I also added a tag saying Chasing my travel dreams.

My title is from a pack of die cuts. Hello matched so I used it.With the word DOLPHNS , I used a variety of left over letters.

Lastly I added some seashell brads and a wood veneer camera.

Alphabetic Challenge Blog and show us your pussies

At Alphabet Challenge Blog it is I for Island fun.
This means we can do anything tropical.
I had some palm leaf patterned background paper and a slice of watermelon.
That suggests tropical to me.

Oh to be on a tropical island now!

Next 2 cards are for Show us your pussycats challenge

I had a couple of tigers and some pawprint paper in my kit. Problem solved!

Paper Issues This or that and Rochelle Spears sketch

I'm opting for all patterned paper to start with.
In my Counterfeit Kit were several purple/mauve papers.
I thought I would combine it with Rochelle Spears challenge ths month as well.
Here's her sketch.

I used Metallic alphas (gold) ,so hopefully that counts.
The tag is there as part of the sketch.
I used sewing between the photos.
The navy and white spotted washi tape runs under the photos.
For the diamond, I turned a square brad sideways to make a diamond shape.

Paper Issues Scraplift Sunday

We are asked to Scraplift this layout.
I started with a blue spotted paper and painted the 2 matting areas. Most of that has been covered by the photos.
Everything on here is from my Counterfeit Kit.

I've also whipped up a quick card for 613 Avenue Create
There is an optional Washi tape challenge.
My great neice turns 15 soon, so I made her a girly card.

CSI #327.

Here's the challenge for CSI case file 327.

I had the perfect background paper for this.
It is a Bella!Travel paper Mini Theme and I'm pleased to be using it as it has been in my stash for ages.
It has map and gingham as part of its design.The background for the main part is also a grid.
I used ribbon, travel themed elements (sunglasses,slide mount,postcard).My slide mount is an original from the 1950s.
I had to do some covering up on the banner as it featured Union Jacks, but managed to use small embellishments such as a house,letter,library card etc to cover those.
All the colours are there. The black is in very small amounts.

After searching high and low for a similar kit, I've come up with this.
There's no yellow as in original papers so it is a cooler toned kit.
I'm running with what I have, so my kit is
