My May Cybercrop Colour Challenge @ Savvy

Tonight marked the beginning of our May Cybercrop at Scrapbook Savvy!  We have lots of challenges released tonight and some super awesome sales, all of which you'll find over on the Savvy blog.

This month I decided to give you a Colour Challenge, and because TODAY is my 10th wedding anniversary my inspiration board for the colour challenge is truly romantic! Love everything about this pic, but its the colours I want you to focus on…

So the colours we are using are…

- Pink & teal
- Add as much black, white & grey as you like!

My layout is totally NOT wedding related, but still gives you that soft pretty feeling of the inspiration given.

This page is called Little Star and features our little miss Georgia at age 3 in her dance class, she has loved dance and all that goes with it from the tender age of 2 years old.

A close up of some gorgeousness from Flourish With A Bling and a chip star from Pink Paislee.

 

And my title, put in the frame on the paper, and it fitted perfectly! Love when that happens!

 

Upload your take to the Scrapbook Savvy Gallery before midnight next Thursday 30 May 2013 for your chance to win some Savvy spending money.

Happy scrapping!!

BIG Savvy Sketch Challenge

It was my turn this month to design the BIG Savvy Sketch Challenge!

Lacking time, I didn’t have time to create a NEW layout as we usually do, taking inspiration from our Savvy Gallery. I instead chose a layout I created at a recent retreat, which was based on the ‘Delightful Technique Challenge’ given to us San from Scrapbooking Delights. The challenge will go back to normal next month, but cause I’m the boss lady I can change the rules this month, right… 

The sketch designed from my layout by Sara, looks like this…

My layout is of my friend San at one of her halloween parties, and is called ‘The Good Witch’. I have used the October Afternoon Witch Hazel range, some of which is still available in the Savvy store here.

And of course, the obligatory closeups...

Love the shape stickers in this range, mount them on foam to make them pop!

The tin pins and brads are so great, teamed here with the mini market stickers in orange.

And my journal card, layered with a few journal sticker elements and the letter 'S' for San. 

We have gone back to a 'random winner' system for our Sketch Challenge this month, giving EVERYBODY an equal chance to win!!

Head over to the Scrapbook Savvy Blog to see more takes on the sketch over the month.

Upload your layout to the Savvy Gallery by midnight 31 May 2013 for your chance to win.  Please complete a new and original layout for this challenge.

Thanks for visiting today!

This time I'm bringing you a Quote Challenge.  You must use the following quote somewhere on your page...be it your title, subtitle or even journalling, up to you!

'A Thing of Beauty is a Joy Forever'

And my take, a beautiful photo of my baby girl taken by my friend Loz from Red Door Photography.  I love the Swirly Garden template I've used with mist on the background, one of my faves!

My quote, using Thickers for the main words and OA Mini Market alphas for the smaller ones.

Loved this gorgeous Kaiser range that I actually picked up from my LSS Scrapbooking Delights, these word stickers had so many uses!

My Blind Scrap Reveal!

Another FAB blind scrap at Scrapbook Savvy last week, this time on our Facebook event which was really fun and much easier to keep up with than on our forum, which has now been closed as we are finding it much easier to keep up with everyone these daysvia Facebook or on our Scrapbook Savvy Blog.

My page was a pic of Georgia on Xmas Day 2011, surrounded by all her new toys using some A Lil Somethin with their gorgeous buttons & banners...

Cute bow from a recent Savvy Kit, and some super cute chevron wood veneer from Studio Calico...

The story...

If you'd like to see how everyone else interpreted my instructions, check out all the gorgeous layouts uploaded to the Savvy Blog here.

Make sure you stay tuned for the next blind scrap challenge, where you get to scrap with step by step instructions all the while not knowing what the end result will be.  So fun!

Donna's Sketch @ SFS

Its been a big week, but I finally managed to get a layout uploaded to the SFS gallery for their Easter Crop-a-thon held last weekend, only a few hours before deadline!

Donna created the sketch for Monday's challenge, and I managed a layout using some old October Afternoon 5 & Dime...and a photo of ME when I was little!

Me & My Pillow...

A bit of a closeup.  I still have to ask Mum just how old I was in this pic as I'm not too sure...

Thanks Peta & Donna for the inspiration, another layout crossed off the list!
