D'lish Scraps Feb Challenge




Beachside Bliss

Love this months challenge at D'lish.  Love the colours and the inspiration.  Love this photo and it fitted so well with the colours and the beach theme. The photo is from our recent holiday to Hawaii.  What better way to watch the sunset than with a cocktail.  Unfortunately it got quite windy and cool so I was wrapped up in the towel - made the surf spectacular though.

Although I love bright colours, I was a bit daunted by using primary colours & glitter.  Duo was easy.
Here is my layout

123 Challenge



The January challenge at 123 Challenge was:


It took a while for me to work out what to do with this one.  The word Appreciate and the folds scared me, but I love the colour Yellow.  In the end I like how it ended up.  Our previous trips are on my mind at the moment as we get ready to go on another o/s family holiday to Hawaii.  As the girls are now 18 & 20 it will probably be the last big one all together.

Tutti Frutti



Love the January Tutti Frutti mood board from D'lish.  Just love using bright colours.



I used the colours and the sketch as inspiration also added a few buttons.  This is the first layout in a long time where I haven't used any mists or paints - it was very hard not to use them.  DD 18 kept me away from them.  I love the crispness (her word) of the layout.

123 Challenge

Like many others the colour Copper scared me.  I've been thinking about this challenge all month and had decided that it was too hard.  Don't know what happened today but I decided to give it a go and see what I could come up with.  I've used a mixture of brown stains and orange mists to create the background - sort of copperish!!  Also used some very old copper embellies as well as the leaves.  Included stars and the word good.

In the end had a lot of fun creating this one.

Love the sneek for next months challenge - can't wait to see it.


Show us your stuff

We had a choice for this months challenge at Show us your Stuff.










I used:
Work - Love
Embellishments - Buttons (although I have used a bow and butterfly buttons)
Technique - Stencilling
Photo Size - Square photos

I have included a D'lish flair and Charms oval as my hand made items.

I got stuck on this one and just left it on my desk.  Walked passed it Friday night and just pulled some things out and it magically came together.

here is my layout.  Have used the colours, sketch for inspiration although not happy with how my circle tuned out, and the word Escape (also used it in the journalling).
