Scrap the Girls December DT

How did the end of the year sneak up so quickly?

Time for a Christmas theme, but this time with a not so traditional colour scheme. Here is my take:

And here is the mood board that gave me inspiration for this month's Scrap the Girls challenge which you can find here.

I used some of my traditional pointsettia dies to create flowers (Kaisercraft), and layered among various papers and veneers. I also used a tim holtz thinlit die and a scribbling of Gelatos. 

Whilst I love the colors, my little reindeer was wearing traditional Christmas colours which didnt look so good on my page. It was an easy fix to change my photo to black and white to make my layout. Twinkle all the way!

Merry Christmas!

Cheers!

Scrap the Girls design team for May

In some part of the world it must be spring, so here are spring flowers. This is my take on the Scrap the Girls sketch for this months challenge.  Pinks and greys and butterflies.

To make this layout, I first stamped the page and spread a little paint around.

I painted and stamped some tags-

Along with some papers to use behind my photo.

This months sponsor for the challenge at Scrap the Girls - Cut to You Created by Gwen provided the files for the flowers. I cut these and applied paint.

The layout was assembled with the addition of a few more embellishments and butterflies cut from cardstock.

Here's the sketch for May.
