Lego

Check out this fun pic to be inspired by for the May 2023 Archi-scraps challenge.

I know Lego is so popular. A store just opened to a big fanfare at my local shopping mall.

Here is the page:

When my kids were tiny I took them to an interactive exhibit of Lego in Myer in Perth City. They got to play at tables with tubs in the middle and they had a lot of fun.

I've hand cut some letters and hand sewn some beads on to them, put them on different coloured card and hand "faux" stitched around each one.

Blue and red card

 Here is a little card that I made today.

I'm submitting it to the Stick It down card challenge for April 2023.

Here is their sketch.

Beautiful ceilings are my jam

I j'adore an ornate ceiling. The World is full of them. I can't wait to visit and see more of them.

In the meantime, we can dream of being there by being inspired by Archi-scraps' latest challenge. Look at this magnificent architecture.

This is the Gothic Conservatory in Mexico. Such pretty colours and designs.

I chose to make a card. You need to include 5 florals and at least 5 circles.

I made a tall card to represent the columns and I added 1 strip of patterned paper and 2 strips of washi.

I then used circle cutters with some patterned papers that I felt matched the pic above. I also chose one large circle in the dark blue.

What do you think?

Hope you join in.

Pink Happy Birthday card

Hello.

I have a sweet, simple card to enter into March 2023's Stick it Down challenge.

Above is the sketch to work with.

Here is my design.

I have also used the patterned paper from the front on the inside.

Thanks for looking.

Sea theme at Archi-scraps

Archi-scraps' March theme is use a whale or sea theme and be inspired by this photo.

Here is my DT submission.

The beach subsets at Cable Beach in Broome are legendary.  The "money shots" are the ones with the yacht and a bird in them. The yacht is a hired one that takes people out to get the full sunset experience.

My journalling is all about the bird and there's a bird sticker too. Definitely nailed the sea theme. 

Take a look at the facebook page to see the other DT's submissions and then let's see what you will do.

Thanks for looking.

Wedding card

 Hello.

My nephew is getting married shortly. I've made him a simple card for the big day.

The design is taken from a sketch at Stick it down.

Perfect for a wedding card.

Here is what I made.

I've also added a little something to the inside to hold cash.

I'm giving him a gift also but they wanted some cash for the honeymoon. Understandable.

I'm really looking forward to the wedding.

Cheers,

February is the month of love

PINK. In capitals because:

What else is there to say? This is the challenge pic at Archi-scraps this month. The house looks like southern USA to me.  Just charming.

What inspires you? I'm not much of a pink lover myself. I have to wear it regularly though. I'm volunteering at the Fringe World Festival this year and this is the colour t-shirt they gave me.

I decided to make a card for my hubby for Valentine's Day. Here's the card:

You have to include a heart as the extra criteria.  Do you see mine?

What will you make? Add your entry on the facebook group page.

Happy Valentine's.
