Mystical CC for May 2014

It's Cyber Crop time at Mystical Scrapbooks.  Each Designer has a sketch for you to play with that has one embellishment type as an added criteria. Mine is ribbon.

Bring It On - Footy layout

 Here's another layout of Mark playing footy. He is such a little star I always have lots of opportunities to photograph him with the ball. Again, I have used his team colours as the inspiration.

I'm entering this layout in:

Flourish With a Bling's October Bling It On Boys (see how clever I've been with my layout title) where you had to use some of their product on a boy layout. I've use the Luke Blue Denim Metallic flourish. The second photo shows just how luminous the product is. Very cool.

I'm also entering it into Crafting Marfa's challenge. Marfa hails from sunny Florida and she asks us to use multiple photos on a layout. I mostly do this at any rate as I like to use lots of photos.

Thanks for looking and enjoy your crafting.

P.S. My layout won this challenge.

Footy

I completed a double page spread yesterday. I managed to make one of the pages suit quite a few separate challenges. I am a big fan of the Carlton Blues AFL footy team. Have been since I was in primary school. Now that was a while ago. My family and I went to see a live game of the Blues vs Eagles. Happily my team won. Of course the majority of faces on the train home were glum because they were Eagles supporters but I was happy and humming the club song all the way. 

I've used Creative Memories, Birch Craft, Sassafras Lass and Paper Inklings products to complete these 2 pages.

Footy

Mark has his first footy game this morning. He plays for Booragoon Junior Football Club. They are a great bunch of boys in his team. Hope he has a pearler. It's a nice, fine clear day for it. Good for spectators too.

Also, go Blues, get those Pies.
