D-lish Scraps DT December share 2 - Aperol Spritz

Hi everyone, I am back with my second share for December. 
This layout is one I have created using one of the cybercrop challenges over at the Scrap Suite, that were posted last week. Take a look, there are some awesome challenges. My layout is inspired by the challenge set by Amanda Hartmann, a travel page.

Aperol Spritz
My layout is from my recent holiday to Italy, where I had many experiences, one of which was discovering the Aperol Spritz, oh my, so refreshing on a hot day.
Anyway, on my layout, I used a stencil from the Love Like This JAP kit, in spots around the edge of the page, with some texture paste. 
In my first cluster, I have used a bitty bag, colour me cuts wildflowerspastel petals and bow from a past kit bits.
I keep finding bits in my left over JAP kits that suit all sorts of pages, lol.

Scrap The Girls November challenge

This month at Scrap The Girls, there is a lovely sketch to use:
I love working with sketches, they provide a starting point, but also versatility to allow for your own interpretation, but quite simply you could just use them as they are. I pretty much kept to the sketch, but added my own little touches. 
For my layout, I thought about using 4 different photos, like the sketch has, but I decided on 1 square 5 inch photo in the end. I was on a retreat in August, and met the talented Amanda Hartmann, who I am on a couple of design teams with. There was an 80's dress up night, and Amanda had these awesome retro earrings, that we put on to ham it up a bit. I love how Amanda posed for this photo, she looks like she is posing for a fashion magazine, lol. 
Anyway, I tried to create a bit of a retro feel to my layout, using colours inspired by the earrings. I added some stamping and Colour blast colour paste. To embellish, I have added chipboard, crochet flowers, doily, feathers, ribbon, a Studio fourteen40 flair and a Charms Creations heavenly heart
Thanks for looking at my layout, and for any comments you may leave.

Kraft Plus August Challenge

How is it already near the end of August? I can't believe where this month has gone, let alone this year. I have hardly scrapped this month, life has just got in the way.
I did do the challenge at Kraft Plus though, and this is the challenge:
I went on a scrapping retreat in July, and met for the first time, Charmane Koch and Amanda Hartmann, creator and fellow creative team member from Charms Creations. It was so lovely to meet after so long working together on the team. So I thought it appropriate to create this layout, my tribute to meeting them. 
Naturally, I have included a Charms Creations embellishment, a heavenly heart. 
I have included 3 tassels on my layout, and I had a lot of creative mixed media fun with the background. 
Thanks for looking at my layout, and for any comments you may leave.

D-lish Scraps November-December cybercrop - challenge1 by Amanda Hartmann

This month, the D-lish Scraps cybercrop is on in the Scrap Suite found on facebook.
Amanda Hartmann has set challenge #1, which I had a go at:
This is a cool challenge, we often use geometric shapes, but don't deliberately think about it. 
Anyway, I used this photo from the E2C retreat I attended back in March for this challenge. The theme for the retreat was gold, with triangles, so this challenge was perfect for my photo. 
I've been wanting to scrap this photo for a while, so this challenge was perfect. The geometric shapes I have used are triangles, circles, diamonds and rectangles.
Thanks for looking at my layout and for any comments you may leave.
