I've been trying to organise my oldest stash a bit better... and I came across a few WRMK sticker sheets from the Fiesta collection. I'm not very confident of using them all, but I thought I would challenge myself to use them to build my Scrap Backwards kit for December. Anything that's left over, I will donate to the local kindy to use in their craft activities.



Off to a good start with the bracket and the alphabets:


Materials
Scenic Route Sonoma - Olive Ave patterned paper
DCWV Watercolour Garden patterned papers

Lots of green scraps!
Camera cutting die

White with GOLD

White with 1 December/January challenge is all about this spectacular mood board.


Any variation of GOLD you want to use - you can range this from light to dark , mix it up but it needs to be gold toned and nothing else. You can use black, dark brown, grey or navy as your accent colour for journaling, titles etc.

Inspired by the glam images of nails, shoes and eye make-up, I used a photograph from a photo shoot of my daughter a few years back.


Materials
White gloss cardstock (upcycled packaging)
Cocoa Vanilla You Rock! wood veneers
iCraft Deco Foil - Gold transfer sheet
May Arts Metallic Velvet - Gold glitter ribbon

I'm sharing my page at Simon Says Wednesday for the Anything Goes theme.
