Pink for Scrap The Girls


I rule this Fun House

Here's my layout for Scrap The Girls. It's totally Pink and I have a sub-title inspired by her song Welcome to the Funhouse. She is one energetic lady on stage.

July 2011's challenge is to scrap a Layout using this album cover by ‘Pink’ ‘Greatest Hits….So Far’ as your inspiration.

Choose the colours, design, words whatever grabs you and use them to create your layout, girls only of course.
AND you have to choose any song title or lyrics by Pink and use them anywhere on your layout,
either as a title on your page or in your journaling.

Punky Scraps Ch# 23





Here is my submission for Punky Scraps challenge #23. Lots of criteria for this:
turquoise, red, 3 circles, stitching and photos not of people. I've got the LOT. They also mentioned staples but I don't use those as those aren't photo safe so I've left that one off.
The photos are of the Props Dept of Warner Bros Studio. Full of amazing stuff it is.

RERT - Wk 8 Layout and card




Week 8 of the Red Earth Road Trip is Burnie in Tasmania. We've been let loose a little bit as the criteria was to use paper and layer it. Easy peasy Japanesy. I loooooove paper.

For the card I've done a circle shape and followed through with 1" circles punched from scrap paper, layered a vellum title and a CB piece in a similar colourway. Done.

The layout is a lot of My Mind's Eye Quite Contrary line with some crate paper borders and some extras. Another Prima flower. Now that's two layouts in a row. Wow.

ARTastic submission

I happen to love the colour maroon and I also love hats. Perfect combination for me to try the July challenge at ARTastic this month. You had to use a photo of yourself, monochromatic red or maroon and a hat or gloves.  Guess what, I've also managed to use some Prima flowers. These sit happily in their box for me to admire and usually not much else. Patting myself on the back today for actually using 3 different packages of Prima lovelies in this layout.

What's Up Doc?


Sketch-July-2011.jpg

Here is my layout for Anna's Craft Cupboard's July sketch challenge. I've included 3 photos as the two little ones in the sketch just weren't enough for me. I think it works just as well. The background paper is Studio Calico State Fair. I just love that range.
