Scrapping Boys

Hi All
Welcome again.
Playing along with Scrap The Boys January challenge today.
The brief is to use numbers on you page.
Here's what I did.

I started off with a TCW numbers stencil and some light inkpads but it got kind of buried under the patterned paper and my bootprint stencil. So, when I had finished embellishing with the gorgeous Kinder Kreations chippy stars and 'Epic' word, I added some more numbers using a Tim Holtz layering stencil with some black ink.

Thanks for coming by
Hope January is treating you well.

CSI Challenge

It has been ages since I've felt able to play with
a challenge blog
and I have missed it.
This one in particular, CSI, always
manages to bring out my favourite pages.
I'm not sure I got the colours exactly right and I forgot to use the sketch,
but that doesn't matter because this page is really important to me.

The Colour Blast paste, and inkpads, as well as the awesome WeRMK Typecast typewriter are from Scrapping Clearly.

Here is the case file
 
I have used enamel dots, different letter stickers, and letters as design.
I used the 'sweet' 'life' inspiration words.
It took me in a very different direction.

Hello Again

Six months.
Quite a while.
I guess 2016 took it's toll on my blog too.

Happy New Year (fingers crossed)!
Here I am wishing for better things from this year.

I am currently designing for Scrapping Clearly, having let the others go,
and am attempting to reconnect with my erstwhile passion for scrapbooking.
My heart is leading me towards the story-telling side of the craft more and more just at a time when the kids are growing up and living lives largely without me.
This leaves me in a quandary.
I guess this will be my challenge to work through this year.

I have a couple of gigs lined up, sharing at retreats.
February at HVR with SFS I will be talking about journalling and looking at how to get the most out of your stencils. 
November at Gundagai for Scrapping Clearly, still planning.

I'm hoping to be able to share here much more regularly too.
And with that in mind here is a page I've done for the SC January mood board.
We'd love you to play along. The prizes are always fabulous!


This is the mood board, if you click on it
you'll go to the upload folder on Facebook.

We also have a sketch challenge.
No automatic alt text available.
Thanks for coming by
Hope to see your projects in the SC galleries.
