Show Us Your Stuff - January

Happy Australia Day everyone!!!

I have created this layout for the challenge over at SUYS

Here is the inspiration image + use a handmade item

Here is my layout:

I have used some polaroid selfies taken on NYE.

My handmade items are the 2 flair buttons (top and bottom)

 I used some gesso to tone down the brightness of the Jillibean paper

underneath the photos

and one last close-up of the other flair at the top.

Items used: Jillibean pp, pink paislee note, flair buttons, doily, studio calico wood

veneers, prima flower, basic grey clip, ink.

Thanks for looking

BW2 - January challenge

2014 is here and so is the new challenge over at Black with 2

This month sees a new style to the challenges on the blog.

Still the usual Black with 2 but there is a new

mood board (below) with a sketch and a WORD to use as well.

So here is my page, inspired by the seaside image.

I have used paint to carry the effect of the waves across the page.

and just a bit of washi and flowers.

 I decided to use the WORD love, in my journalling

 and a pretty little flair button with some twine.

Thanks for looking

Hope to see some people giving this new concept a go this month
