I'm settling back into my scrapbooking routine and I have to say it's good to be able to work on it during the day with natural light rather than in the evening....
The challenge for the Southern Girls Challenge this time was to incorporate bling. And having two girls I do tend to have....a bit of bling!!!
This photo of my mum and girls is a great one. I used a Studio Calico kit and just love how the colours of it worked so well with the colours in the photo. I've also used stickles for more shine and sparkle.
Thanks for looking.
After completing the masking challenge for Challenge Me Happy (click here for post) I was inspired to do another layout with another mask. It was a Heidi Swapp tulip mask. I found these 2 photos of my daughters that weren't taken at the same time (I think there was 2 weeks between them). We were doing some baking and I asked them to smile. They both gave me the same pose and tilted their head the same way - just classic - so of course had to scrapbook them. In completing the layout I realised that wasn't much room for journalling - which tied in well with the Southern Girls Challenge #19 to do something hidden. I created a journalling tag and slipped it behind the top photo. To do this smoothly I raised the photos so that the tag would slide in easily. I used papers from the Crate Paper Random collection thickers from American Craft and letter stickers from October Afternoon.
