Scrap Around The World Challenge 2 - Vintage Love

Heya!

I'm so happy to have my scrappy passion back and in full swing......for awhile I lost the passion, I got caught up in the business that is life and totally lost the mojo. It feels good to be back at my scrappy desk doing whats good for the soul!

I've played along with Scrap Around The World, challenge # 2.

The challenge requires you to take inspiration from both a mood board and a sketch.

Here is the mood board:


And here is the sketch:


And here is what I came up with:
I have taken inspiration from the vintage feel of the mood board, I've scrapped a page showing my love for vintage suitcases, quilts & books!

Thank you oh so very much for having a wee look at my blog!

CSI Challenge # 74 - So Cute

Hey hey hey!

I hope everyone has been having a FAB week.

We have just got back from a camp with our church. The weather was CRAZY, it was freezing, pouring with rain and blowing a gale......now thats pretty normal weather for most other parts of Australia....but not here in the Pilbara! So it was definitely an experience to remember. I'm so very glad we went as the praise and worship was awesome and the guest preacher was AMAZING!! I also got to know people more as we were all hanging out together out of the weather in the church marquee tent.

Anyhooooo.......I digress......I have a scrappy share for you, and yes it's another CSI: Color, Stories, Inspiration challenge. I simply cannot get enough of their challenges....they are awesome!!

Here is challenge # 74:
(This one was a tough one for me)


Here is what I came up with:
I have scrapped my GORGEOUS niece Lilly.

And there you have it folks!

Thanks for stopping by my wee blog.
