Scrap Around The World May Challenge

Hello again everyone. There's a new online challenge site created by the very talented Helen Tilbury, that has just released it's very first challenge. Scrap Around The World as you would guess is open to anyone around the world and has an amazing line up of international designers, so we'll never be short of inspiration.

Here is the current challenge:

As you can see it is a colour/texture challenge as well as a sketch challenge. In case you haven't noticed over the last few months, I'm in love with this colour combo. I've even used these colours in my Christmas cards for last year. Anyway here is my take:


This lovely pic was taken on New Year's Eve 2012 and it was the last time we were all together on a mini summer break. So I'm glad I managed to get some half decent photos :)  In the closies you'll see that I've used some texture paste with a prima stencil (from Craft Queen) with Glimmer Mist and I've heat embossed stamped images onto the tags. The flowers are from Prima, Kaisercraft PP, Websters Pages crochet doily and some old tea-dyed crochet doily off-cut. The little white hearts and metal embellies are from Craft Queen as well as is the satin seam binding.



Thanks for looking and enjoy the rest of your week. Please feel free to leave a comment :) xx
