SB Top 50 - Scraplift challenge - April

A Scraplift Challenge is happening again over at SB top 50

The first challenge I have done is Bernii Miller (current SBM Master)

Here is Bernii's amazing page

and my interpretation of it:

 I kept a similar wooden background, just gesso'ed it to soften it

and kept all elements in similar spots

 also included the doilies.

Next up was also another current SBM Master, Raquel Bowman

Here is her page

Here is my page:

 I kept layers behind the photo, and wood veneer chevron. Also kept triangle corner

and washi strip at the bottom

 I added more misting with a textured backing

and added some micro beads to the paste and also used

some silver inka gold

Lastly and my favourite challenge was another current 

SBM Master, Sophie Koschmann

 Here is my page

 I kept layers behind photo and also used watercolours and misting.

 Changed my embellies to suit the boy photo and added some more splats

I always enjoy theses scraplift challenges and now I have my

mojo flowing again - Thanks SB top 50

Thanks for looking
