To fit extra photos onto this layout I decided 'stretch the sketch' into a double page layout.

Just a BLUR

Anna' Craft Cupboard - March mini challenge

St Patrick Day 

 Boys just want to have fun!
The perfect photo for the mini challenge.

I have created lots of texture in the background; cheesecloth, texture paste, micro beads and thread. I misted this all with 3 shades of green. To accentuate the green I have kept the embellishments fairly simple; some die cuts, jute string, metal cogs and a couple of brads.
This was a fun challenge, thank you to the team at Anna's Craft Cupboard.

Anna's Craft Cupboard - March challenge

Colour challenge - Hello Autumn

Adore You
Being silly at the Royal Adelaide Show in 2014


To highlight the autumn colours, I have created a 'brick wall' with a base colour of gold crackle texture paste with accents of rust, orange and green. The autumn colours continue in the floral embellishments.
