Last LO obligations for my position on Scrap Elegance's DT

Well my time as a member on Scrap Elegance's Design Team has come to an end but not without working with two really cute button designs =)

The first being very boy-like Pirate buttons but these pics of Miss M fitted too well!!

I have finally entered a Scrap the Girls challenge....

"The June Challenge is all about being OUTSIDE, using photos taken outside."

And my Mummy's Day was full of Matryoshka/Babushka Doll themed gifts, so these buttons were ideal for the story-telling on this page!!

Thank you Tenisha for seeing my potential and giving me my first DT position.

 I have thoroughly enjoyed the thrill of deadlines, these have helped me find a balance between my study time and craft time (most of the time LOL).

Off the study for an exam, the last task for this semester before my 3 week prac, exciting times!!

2nd monthly DT LO

I have had this one brewing since receiving my lil Owls!! 

Just had to get into the bulk of assignments to gain the best 'busy' desk photo op LOL

I apologise for the poor design of this message, something I have to work on LOL

Looking to add these to your next pages?

DT commitments!! 1 LO done =)

Scrap Elegance commitments part 1!

These lil "Simple" buttons in yellow and grey spot-

they just set this layout off; giving it balance and drawing the key colours together =)

Love my man, he is getting heaps of attention in my scrappin' of late x

Will update with sale dates for Scrap Elegance with next LO (in a few days!!!)

It hasn't been as long this time...

I have had a lil turn at scrapping over the last two weeks and already have another page planned (just need the photo op to show up)...

Keeping with the theme of catch up I have completed the kidlet's first official Kinder photos!!! Yes thank you very much, thank you!!

They are all similar with simple, clean lines. Now to start the 'getting ready for the first day' pics, it is never ending.....which is a good thing =)

Just a lil thank you to Charmane and her team at 123 Challenge, for acknowledging my entry  in the March challenge with words of encouragement and my first challenge prize...a voucher from Charms Creations!! 

So be prepared to see many LOs with the addition of these lil beauties!

On with the assignment writing only 3 weeks left of this semester, how time flies =)

TTFN

Oh My!!!

Finally a scrap turn, I have been HANGING to do a LO for sooo long (that is how it feels LOL)!! This sketch may just be appropriate.....

Daring You To Scrap

have posted this challenge and their DT takes are just gorgeous...

I have stuck right to the sketch design as I need it to provide new mojo, didn't want to feel like I was floundering for too long trying to get started!

Here is my take...

Yes there are some Charm's Creations there!!

I have also used Echo Pack Boy's Life card and element stickers, LilyBee card, Sassafras card...

twine and paperclips =)

Here's to more pages to come

Balance...

Who would have thought I would get a page done so quickly, especially with my Uni workload? Maybe I am in search of some BALANCE....

Nah just too many great challenges posted yesterday.....and most I could roll into one!!

1,2,3 Challenge's April elements are.....

COLOUR: MINT

WORD: BELIEVE

TECHNIQUE: BEADS

I have been wanting to use these October Afternoon letters for ages, this covered mint along with the Bella! paper, safety pin, Family tile and journalling blocks.

I have strung some wooden beads on to my twine for the tag, keeping it really natural.

And the word 'Believe' is one that you can always incorporate into a family pic =)

I have used a sketch that has been post by Purple Pumpkin that I was going to wait to until after I received all my wonderful goodies from my huge and generous win, but I couldn't wait. With a little flip around I was able to place the printed Crate Paper photo backing beautifully, this is such a fun piece of paper! 

But wouldn't you know it I was stuck for a title.....again!

AND THEN....Polly! posted her April Challenge..... that also uses a mint colour, tree embellishment and the phrase that is just perfect for this pic!

How lucky am I!! 

Ok back to the books...=/ don't want to as I want to get stuck into Daring You to Scrap's

April's challenge....a Page Map sketch, which I fell in love with the other day!

Scrap often!!

The month of March.....gone!!!!

Well hasn't time flown?

Between home-life and uni-life, I have been left with nearly NO scrap-life =(

This hasn't been a huge surprise but the disappointment is still there....

BUT....I have managed to fulfil my DT duties for Scrap Elegance!

I was supplied with a wonderful, bright blue doily pair and three stunning animal print buttons....what to do?? The doilies reminded me of my Nan and the buttons were reflections of nursery rhymes but the two together.....never =/

Gronnie does Nursery Rhymes!!!

I have also used Kaisercraft card and paper, Charm's Creation Fabulous Flower, lace, ric rac, a paper doily and blue pearls.

And then there is the URGE to scrap at MIDNIGHT when the Uni readings are not FINISHED!!

I think I was keen to give this one a go really.....March's 123 Challenge

COLOUR:

Metallic Blue

WORD:

123

TECHNIQUE/EMBELLISHMENT:

use something ORGANIC

Metallic blue....who would have though I had so much stuff! Cardstock, paperclip, paint, staples....

1, 2, 3... in the title....

Organic....the natural string, clay button and the blue mesh.....

Heaps of fun and so fast!!

Hope it is not too long before the next page and post xx

Happy Easter just in case <3
