August 123 Challenge

Join us at 123 Challenge for August!

Another great set of criteria....

WORD: WATCH {can be watching}

COLOUR: GREEN

TECHNIQUE: USE TEXTURE PASTE

Plus great prizes to win!

So here is my layout for this month.

My first time using textured paint.... I used it in two ways... On the centre panel, I painted through a crafters workshop template. I also painted my chipboard letters and chipboard shape, and while the paint was drying, I rolled a stamp over them for extra texture.

Hope you can join us this month! I love a new challenge - and texture paint was for me.... and see- i did it! so can you!

123 Challenge

My good scrappy friends will know that 123 Challenge has always been my favourite challenge blog. It was the first challenge blog i ever completed and the first challenge blog that I ever won a prize at! Every month, if i do nothing else, I always try to do this challenge.

Well,. today, I have some great, fantastic and exciting news.... I have the great honour of joining the Creative Team at 123 Challenge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!! So pleased to have my name and my projects alongside such a talented bunch of ladies.

So here is my first page for the July challenge.... this months challenge is:
1. Colour: Purple
2. Word: MY
3. Technique: Chevron

I created my chevron with patterned paper that I hand cut - panelling at the back of the layout and the extra chevron bits at the 3 points of the layout.

Some people might think that my purple stash is probably quite limited (not my colour), so I was extra happy to find so much HANDMADE HALO purple resin to load onto my layout!

Join us this month at 123 Challenge - great prizes to be in the running for!
