January 2020 Scrap The Girls Mood board

Be Inspired by Weave, Patterns or Colors


I was inspired by Weave, patterns, textile and colors. I wanted to make a tribute to my Mum (on the right) and my Auntie (Mum's sister) who are both shining brightly up there in the sky now! They were always positive and optimistic and unique!
Miss you so much Mum and Marian.

I used my Cocoa Vanilla Studios  Bohemian Paper Collection ( though the butterflies might be from another CVS collection??) and Cottage Garden Embroidery Threads - Gerbera.
Lots of opportunities  in in this mood board!

Be inspired by what you see, read or the colours.

The gum leaf and the stone make me think of the Australian bush.

My daughter was so excited to be a reindeer in the school assembly item in her Pre Primary Year!

I used Kaisercraft "Old Mac" paper  collection and also the collectables that came with it.

The wood veneer is from Corbett Creations.

What do you see when you look at the mood board? 

Scrap The Girls November 2019

 Scrap The Girls 2019 November challenge- The Hangover

I was inspired by the circular theme of the book hangover, and the alcohol.

There is nothing like a cold beer after a hot day sightseeing!

 The gorgeous paper was  from Trocraft "Penelope Dee" .I fussy cut a second wreathe and  layered it 

over my photos.

In the background I used Golden Light Modelling Paste mixed with Prima Finnabair Art Ingredients 

Mica Powder- Vintage Pink through a Maya Road Mask.

When dry I glued some Pretty Pin Posh sequins about.

The chipboard title is from ScrapFx and I embossed it with white Altenew Crisp embossing Powder.

Scrap The Girls October 2019

Breast Cancer Awareness month- pick your star Sign and be inspired by that bra

I am a Pisces and I took my inspiration from the shoe string straps!

I cut up a sheet of black bazzill into narrow strips and went  with a black and white theme.

My daughter was so happy to be a penguin in the school assembly presentation!

Flowers were from 49 and Market, the backing papers and stars were from My Mind's Eye

and the black and white lace panels on the side were die cuts using a Stamp'in up die.

The title is from Dusty Attic and I embossed it with Altenew Crisp Embossing powder- Polar White.

Let's all be breast Aware and check our breasts regularly!

Scrap The Girls August 2019

"Insta Love"

Be inspired by instagram, square photos, the logo, the colours, likes.. just add a note what inspired

you.

I was inspired by the colours, and the square theme, with square photo, texture paste squares, and

stamping tiny squares (Kasazz Graffiti Mesh Background stamp).

I covered the page with Gesso before laying down the texture paste (Golden Light Molding paste)

through a Prima Finnabair Stencil.

Next I used my Distress Oxide inks - Cracked Pistacchio

                                                             Squeezed Lemonade

                                                             and Salty Ocean ,

using the smooshing technique with fine plastic.

When dry I ghost stamped with Archival Ink.

Then I flicked Liquitex Professional Ink- Titanium White and Carbon Black over the page before

laying down the photo.

The papers at the base of the photo are from an old Kaisercraft Christmas Collection.

The camera and the words "tell me a story" are cork stickers from American Crafts Shimelle.

The chipboard word " #adorable " is from Dusty Attic- Hashtag Saying 2- I embossed it with Stamp

It Rich Red Embossing powder and Altenew Embossing Ink.

The flowers are from Blue Fern Studios- "Wanderlust Lillys".

The two flairs are from Accent Scrapbooking.

I really enjoyed making this page!

The possibilities are endless with this mood board!

Scrap The Girls July 2019

Scrap The Girls July 2019 challenge

I had the perfect colour match with Prima Marketing Collection Tales of You and Me!

The mood board was titled "Luscious Lady" 

I have never thought of myself as luscious but I was pretty pleased with myself when I took this

photo!!

I'm wearing a dress that had been hanging in the cupboard for 25 years because I had put on too

much weight over the years to wear it!!( 24 kilos gone!!)

The title( oh so true!) chipboard is from 2Crafty,

 the Heart chipboard are from Dusty Attic.

I have embossed them both with Altenew Crisp Embossing powder Platinum

and I edged my papers with Hampton Dye ink.

Lots of fussy cutting with this page!

Can't wait to see how others create with this mood board!

Good luck all!
