D-lish Scraps DT layout August - Enjoy the Moment

This is the second of my August shares for you.
For this layout, I was inspired by a current challenge in the Scrap Suite on facebook, a challenge set by Sonia Cotugno. Here is the challenge: 
I love adding texture to my layouts, so this challenge was a no brainer for me, lol. I started by tearing the edges of the patterned paper, and then stitching it to the white cardstock. I then added some gesso and texture paste.
I used a photo of Amanda (boss lady) and myself, taken on a recent retreat, it was the first time we had met.
I added more texutre to the layout with my embellishing, and used some florists wrap in pink, around the layout. I matted the photo on a 5 x 7 paper bag. I tucked another paper bag under the 5 x 7. I used a Journal its journaling tag, which is tucked inside the bitty bag. On top of this is a 3 inch paper doily,  ( so cute), star flowerminifetti, and a journaling tag from a kit bit. You can also see punchinella and a forget me not.
The major cluster has been created using a wood veneer frame, into which I clustered hydrangea petalswax blossoms, and a wild rose. Also added is a tasselDusty Attic page pebble and spiral stamens.
Enjoy the moment

D-lish Scraps June Share - Happy 50 Something

Back for my second share for D-lish Scraps for June.
For this layout, I used one of the challenges from the May cybercrop in the Scrap Suite. This is a challenge that was set by Sonia Cotugno.
This was a fun challenge, a great chance to show off numbers. 
This photo is from my most recent birthday, not divulging my age, lol. I used a really cool Dylusions stencil and Bo Bunny glitter paste to create the numbers on the background paper. 
Here are some close ups from my layout:


The products I have used from D-lish Scraps are:

D-lish Scraps DT share - Let's Explore

Hi, I'm back again with the last of my April shares for D-lish Scraps.
This is another March Cybercrop challenge that I did, this one inspired by Sonia Cotugno.

Isn't that image just awesome? I so love the rustic door.
Anyway, I chose to scrap about a day out that my husband and I shared in our city of Melbourne, one of the older inner city suburbs of Fitzroy. We came across a heap of street graffiti by exceptional artists, but I scrapped this photo of me on one of the many sidewalk seats - only in Fitzroy - LOL. It's a fascinating place - very hip and happening. I felt the colours of the chair, teamed with my tee-shirt worked well for this challenge.
On my layout, I used a pip berry stem, monochrome journal it's tags, mini metal flowergreen tara azaleas.
I repeated these embellishments around my page.
I had  a lot of fun creating this layout, and the image that inspired allowed a lot of artistic freedom, thanks Sonia.
