Prima December's BAP & PPP

Welcome again, not long now and we will be welcoming in the New Year and then it starts all over again.  Like I mentioned in my last post I was away and able to fit in a few challenges, all though the biggest challenge away is trying to make do without all your normal scrapping supplies.  Well challenge accepted and I was more than happy with the result.

MY TAKE 

I did start of with some of the color from the mood board but ended up added a few other colours.

This layout it was a lot flatter than what I normally do, I tried incorporating more of my stamps and stencils to create the background and I have used papers from both Cartographer and Something Blue.

Other Products used:

Prima - Bloom Stamps

Prima Flowers  SIIC

Prima - Bloom mists

Swirl die cut, textured  pasted and alphabet stickers

Scrap The Girls Challenge

Hi Everyone, hope you have all had a lovely Christmas and hopefully a break.  I took a little break just before Christmas and went to my friends house and we scrapped blissfully for a few days hidden away in the air con. We scoured the internet for a few challenges and I stumbled on the Scrap The Girls blog and loved the whimsical mood board and decided to play along.

My Take on the Challenge

The picture is a recent one of my daughter taken whilst we were having a casual breakfast at Cassaurina.  I used papers from Webster's Strawberry Fields Collection and I picked the teal from the butterfly wings.  I've also used a couple of different masks to create the background..

Other products used:

Nestabilities feather die

Twine

Texture paste

Blue Fern Chipboard

Prima - Bloom mists & flowers

Photo overlay

Prima 12 days of Christmas Cards

Hi Everyone,  I don't know about anyone else this past couple of weeks has been  super hectic.

 I thought to it would be a great idea to participate in the Prima Challenge, we all interpret things that we read differently and the way I thought this challenge worked was that you needed to do all 12 challenges.  Hmmm maybe not the case after all, needless to say I started  with the intention of getting all 12 completed.  Unfortunately I have run out of time unless I can pull a miracle tomorrow. Of course I also left the photographing to the last minute and we had a severe storm and I ran out of decent light and only 3 photos look any good.   Anyway not to bore you with any more of the details here are the first 3.

Day 3  - Finnabair Products

 

Products used:  Micca Flakes, textured paste  paper.  All other products used are also from Prima.

Day 10 - Julie Nutting Wood Dolls

Products used:  Julie Nutting wooden doll all other products are Prima.

Day 12 - Cigar Box Secrets Collection

Products used:  Cigar Box Collection,includes hand made flowers and die cut pieces.  

Funny enough I had used the Cigar Box Collection on my cards and luckily had enough scraps left to create this, I was also trying to really embrace the Christmas theme with shapes as well.

Stay tuned if you would like to see the remaining, I will have them up tomorrow

Thanks for stopping by and for any comments you may leave.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
