Casa Battlo

Made this for the Scrummy Stash Cafe's latest challenge. The challenge was to come up with a different way to do journalling. Mine is written round the buttony-flowery things.

The Build

Another digi for another UKS challenge - the only regular scrapping that I'm doing at the moment is on my December Daily Album.

Theme was for new beginnings (in this case the new bits being added to our house), to use white flowers or ribbons, to follow the sketch and to use stamping. Obviously my stamping isn't the regular ink stamping, it's faux digi stamping, but that's counted in the past!!

Gaudi Afternoon

Made for a UK Scrappers Challenge. Round photo, literary title* and a hand-made embellishment (a little tricky as a digi, but I made the button from scratch). The kit is Blue Lagoon by Sweet Blossom Designs and the font is Santa's Big Secret.

Blimey it was hot on Friday afternoon. We sat in Park Guell, rolled up our sleeves and had a lovely cup of coffee. Today we're back in Blighty wearing extra layers and shivering!

Odd

My entry for the Scrummy Stash Cafe this week. Had a class to follow this time, I didn't have all the bits, so a lot of this is making it up as I go along!



I've mainly used Crate Paper, with a little bit of Scenic Route and some lace cardstock.

Picture taken in Silver City, New Mexico. One of the oddest places I've ever been.

Carriage

The challenge this week at the Scrummy Stash Cafe was to scrap your favourite artist/band/song. I wanted to scrap Counting Crows and luckily I was able to do so by using their song Carriage! Yay! Still filling up my USA album and getting challenges done at the same time.

Picture taken in Tombstone, this was our carriage tour guide. I loved Tombstone, it was such fun and I wish we'd had longer there. We only went there as an afterthought.

I've made this for the UKScrappers November Week 2 Challenge.

We had to use the sketch they provided, use rik rak, brads and the colours pink, white and green. I had to go digital with it because I don't own any rikrak at the moment.

Meteor Crater

Made for the latest Scrummy Stash Cafe challenge. I've been wanting to practice doodling, so this was a good chance to do that.

Used Crate Paper stuff and some Thickers.

Even more holiday digitals!

Silver City, New Mexico


Very odd place, but attractive at the same time.

I love that all the supermarkets have stacks of large pumpkins outside, inside... just brilliant.

YES!!!!

I'm so happy right now. Well done America, you made the right choice. The polar bears and fruit flies thank you.

Santa Fe


We stayed at the Canyon Motel & RV park in Williams. They had lots of old railway carriages dotted around the park that were fitted up to stay in, but we just stayed in a regular cabin.
