scrapbook capital is having their monthly cyber_crop this weekend. there are 3 challenges. good luck to those that decide to have a go!
challenge 1 – only use lime and lavender on your layout or card …

layout features my brother and his girlfriend. this was an interesting challenge. i didnt have a lot of embellishments in those colours. the title is chipboard painted with lime kaisercraft paint. i did have versa colour ink so i stamped a butterfly and used a stampin up ‘eastern bloom’ stamp. the heart is made out of felt. the prima flower (although it doesnt look like it) is lavender coloured.
challenge 2 – a sketch challenge

here’s my take on the sketch >>

[the 2009 royal adelaide show was on last weekend - it was a great day. will blog with more details later!]

{ the photo is of me and my cousin teresa from 2002 when we were in london. this was the night when harrods had their fireworks to mark the beginning of the christmas season. the fireworks lasted 15 minutes. harrods had their christmas lights switched on by the producers of ‘die another day’ (james bond movie) }
