Curse the bloomin' weather we are having....hot and overcast and completely rubbish for taking photos of white layouts!! Wish I liked colour, life would be so much easier!!
Enough of that, I have found two lovely challenges today that I have incorporated into one layout, using my gorgeous CKC kit :0)
1. About a Girl have a June challenge to use doilies on your layout.
2. The Studio Challenges are doing a Lift Chain Blog Hop...which is genius in itself. I chose to lift Amanda's layout.....a real beaut :0)
Here is my take:
Our local zoo is 50 years old and held a competition to colour in a giraffe.The winning entries were painted on a lifesize model. DGD's Nursery were one of the winners and their giraffe is in the entryway to a large supermarket.
title cut on the Silhouette. I used watered down acrylic paints to splatter as I didn't have the right colour mists.
I have been having a massive clearout in my craft room....pictures soon....and have discovered so many things that I have never used....like this little die :0)
lovely ring stain stamp from a set I won from Skissedilla ...yay!
sorry for the hideous photos...such a shame as this layout is so pretty in real life!! Perhaps I should have waited to share it ;0)
Thanks for popping in today,

ReplyDeleteGood on you going in The Studio challenge hop thingy...I hopped around cos it was such FUN seeing how different the original LO ended up! And I thought that was a negative circle misting....it's a STAMP....marvellous....cotton around circles....ooooh yes!!! Gotta remember that idea...looks totally BRILL:):):) Errrmmmmm some of us are too darn lazy to get out the water colours, water them down, put them in a bottle & mist...not mentioning names....... it looks really good, too:):):)
