123 Challenge Blog

It has been a long time since I have scrapbooked a page for the 123 Challenge Blog but this months challenge really inspired me. The challenge was Colour: Hot Pink; Word: LOL; & Technique: Grid. I had this layout stuck in my head since I saw the challenge at the start of the month but have only, just last night, had the chance to sit down and get it out of my head and on to paper. I'm really happy with the results. I have used plenty of Hot Pink, there is grid on my background in gesso as well as a grid formed with the die cut squares and the word LOL is on one of the Itty-Bitty Word Stickers.

Show Us Your Stuff - April Challenge

Show Us Your Stuff has put together a very Easter inspired mood board for their challenge this month. I LOVE mood boards and this palette was very pretty.  I decided to scrapbook an older photo of my eldest two children (which just happened to be taken on Easter). I have used a Charms Creation Arrow for my home made embellishment.

Here is the mood board...
