October Afternoon Sketch Challenge

I managed to get October Afternoon's Sketch challenge done last night - used their Seaside range, which is a beautiful range - and a couple of other bits n pieces - etsy finds!

Just Pottering Around......

Last weekend was a huge one for Cybercrops - Scrapboutique had a fantastic cybercrop running, and I did this layout for the fabulous Sketch challenge set by the lovely Sonia, using a sketch by Anam Stubbington. I am quickly joining the Echo Park fanclub by the way - just love the bright colours in their ranges.

Chels ran a fabulous Roast too - and this is the layout I did, somehow I had REAL problems following the instructions - must be the teacher in me - haha! I used a portrait photo instead of a landscape - D'oh instant problems there - haha! Also got left and right mixed up - double D'oh!!

Over at Chookscraps, my lovely friend Shara hit us with a surprise challenge - this was my take on it, we had to use pastel colours (gasp!!) an animal element, and at least 5 pieces of ribbon. I used Pink Paislee Daily Junke - I just love this range, the design of the papers is just so funky in a shabby, whimsical way.

Let's not forget the Amazing Chook Race I am currently participating in - this layout was done for the 2nd leg - New Zealand. We had to use Black Cardstock as a base, doodling and a bird as an element. I actually made the lollipop flowers myself, with Denim and scrap pps.

Last but not lease, this is my entry into the monthly sketch challenge at Anna's Craft Cupboard. The sketches are always done by the lovely and talented Wendy Smith. I love this layout - and I think these papers - Fancy Pants Beach Bum are going to be an all-time favourite!
