Show Us Your Stuff - August 2017 - DT page

Hello everyone!

 

August is here.... time for some more scrappy sharing!

 

Check out this great sketch for Show Us Your Stuff!

 

 

And here is my page .... get ready for cuteness!! ;)

 

 

 

 

The cutie is my niece Isla, and these were the first real smiles I captured on camera!

 

I used Cocoa Vanilla Studio papers (including some fussing cutting!) and some Colour Blast Shimmer Sprays and Shimmer Cubes for the background work.

 

Here are some close ups:

 

I used a Charms Creations Arrow here - one in denim and pink... pretty and perfect amongst the fussy cut flowers and D-lish Scraps paper flowers.

 

Here I used a Rainbow Splendour Pretty Pin.

 

 

 

 

 

Hope you join our sketch challenge this month.

Show Us Your Stuff - March

I love the SUYS team, so proud to design with them, and with fun and different challenges every month.

This month Charms Creations is sponsoring and I came up with a THIS or THAT challenge.

 

 

So I chose:
STARS, not hearts
BUTTONS, not sequins
WASHI, not ribbons
SPOTS, not stripes

I layered a heap of photos on the background for this layout - I think that it is a really great way to get lots of photos on a page.

 

My handmade elements are:
* Charms Creations DIY star - coloured with Colour Blast Shimmer Dust (in Midnight)
* Funky Flairs Studio - Zentangle Flairs

It was a bit old school to go with some buttons, brads and word stickers, but I like how it all came together!

Hope you can join us for the March challenge at SUYS.
