Aussie outback

I'm sharing my layout at Scrapbook Fantasies for the November mood board. 

Inspired by the images, especially the red dirt road!  I have no shortage of photos like that from our outback trips.  I used a Scrapbook Fantasies Colour Cut on this page from the Aussie Grunge collection.

Happy Days

I've been scrapping some old packs of photos from 1996. This one is from a NSW road trip with my boyfriend (now husband). I wasn't very diligent in documenting back then, but I think this was taken at or near Kiama.

I'm sharing this page at:

* Scrap Challenge YOUrself ~ Use a grid pattern

(Yes, that's a much younger ME in the photo!)

* Kraft + ~ November Challenge #1
I love the fresh colour combo.

Minnie Water

This page was inspired by the colours and beach image in the Soul Scrappers November mood board, with requirement to USE STARS/STARFISH.  I used diecut pieces from Scrapbook Fantasies Nautical Dreams - Starfish & Shells Colour Cuts set.

A filler page for my 2021 Girls' trip album - not every page needs a photo!

Urban Graffiti?

Inspired by, and sharing at:

So... neon isn't really my style, but I thought the colour palette would work well for some alternative rock concert pics.

* Must include ~ Butterflies {These diecuts were part of a D-lish Scraps kit from many years ago}

Also sharing my page at Simon Says Wednesday for the Anything Goes theme.

Crazy

Halloween is not really my thing. I find it very weird how Australian retailers have embraced (dare I say, exploited) American-style Halloween in recent years - the merchandise is everywhere and unavoidable. However, it does make for a great LO theme!!

And... I finally found a way to use the large skull piece from an old pack of Tim Holtz grungeboard. Stashbusting for the win!  A bit of white acrylic paint and silver glitter glue, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

I'm sharing this page at:

* Park Hopping Happy Place ~ October challenge
I took my inspiration from the Halloween theme.

* Simon Says Monday ~ Spooky

* Off the Rails ~ Boo, Fun Night

09/11/2024 Edit to add ~ My layout was selected as random winner at Off the Rails!

LETTERS #1 ~ Create a new page with your title in BIG lettering.

* BIG TITLE - I used some very old chipboard alphabets {Delish Designs Letter Bikkies Uppercase +  Wishmade chipboard} painted with pigment ink {Aladine/Seth Apter IZink Stratosphere}

[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]

LETTERS #2 ~ Create a layout where the title is a long quote or the start of your journalling.
