D-lish Scraps December share 3 - 80 years young

Hi everyone, I hope you have all had an enjoyable Christmas.

I have had my parents visiting from Queensland, so that has been nice. 

My share today, actually features my father, from his 80th birthday this year. 

80 years young

I created this layout, using one of the current cybercrop challenges, set by Amanda Lawrence, owner of D-lish Scraps. She has created a birthday bingo challenge, here are the clues:

From the clues, I used stencilling, a splash of yellow, and a flair. 

I started off my creating my background, using a number 5 x 5 stencil, it is pretty cool. I used texture paste and some Ken Oliver colour bursts for the colour. 

In my first cluster, you can see a flair, coloured wire, journal it's basic journal spot, creative cuts leaves, and flowers from a previous JAP kit. 

In this second cluster, I have also added a Magnolia flower and sequin bow.

My Dad loves his layout, so this was a fun challenge to use for it. I hope you join in for the challenges, if you have some spare time over this holiday period.

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 wildflowers, pastel petals and bow from a past kit bits.

The second cluster features the colour me cuts, pastel petals, as well as flair button, punchinella, enamel dots, and Journal Its from Love Like This JAP kit.

I keep finding bits in my left over JAP kits that suit all sorts of pages, lol. 

D-lish Scraps DT share 2 - September - All you need is love and a dog

Hi everyone, I am back with my second share for September. This layout is my challenge layout for the cybercrop at  The Scrap Suite. I hope you have managed to take a look at the challenges.
So my challenge is to scrap a family pet. This puppy in the layout is my sons dog, Dusty, who we just adore so much. He has such a beautiful nature and a fun personality, and is extremely clever and handsome - yes I do love him, lol.
Anyway, these photos are from his first birthday, I just had to cook him a cake - carrot and peanut butter, he loved it.

All you need is love and a dog

It's a pretty busy layout, but it suited the photos well, I think. 

This first cluster features a 5 x 7 paper bag to mat the photos, Creative Cuts die cuts, paint chips tab word, JAP kit bits, wood veneer star.

The second cluster features punchinella, JAP past kit bit wood veneer star, flair button, carnation, and enamel dots.

Jam & Cram - D-lish Scraps DT share number 3 August

Hi everyone, I am back with my last share for July. This layout is inspired by one of the current cybercrop challenges in the Scrap Suite, by Amy Churchward. I love Amy's work, so she is so clever with mixed media. So Amy's challenge is to be inspired by food. Amy's original inspiration was scones, and I had this photo in my stash waiting to be scrapped, yes scones. It was a no brainer, lol.

Jam & Cream

I had a lot of fun with this one. The cafe we were at when I took this photo, is a vintage inspired little cafe, with lots of vintage items around it, and they do the best scones, it is what they are known for, the name of the cafe is Jam & Cream. 

Anyway, I decided to try to keep a vintage theme to the layout. I found in my vintage stash this page from an old magazine, with the words "made from wheat", and it was a perfect fit for the layout, along with the vintage lace and crochet doily. 

I was then able to embellish it perfectly with my D-lish Scraps products.

With this first cluster, I have used a paper doily, cut in half and tucked behind the photo. I have added flowers and leaves from the Love like this just add paper kit. To finish, I used Creative Cuts leaves, flair button and ombre wordfetti strip of words. 

With the second cluster, I repeated the Ombre wordfetti, coloured paper doily half, Creative Cuts leaves, flowers and leaves from just add paper kit. I also added a Green Tara jasmine flower.

I love the overall effect of this layout. 

D-lish Scraps DT share September - Lovely

Hi everyone, I am back with my last DT share for D-lish Scraps. I have had fun being on the design team for Amanda over the last year.
For my final layout, I chose to scrap a layout, using the bonus JAP kit from the August cybercrop at the Scrap Suite. There is also a challenge associated with this kit:

How pretty and springlike is this moodboard? I had a lovely photo of my daughter that suited this challenge and kit perfectly. 

From the kit, I used the wood veneer scallop circle frame, XO, foil doily, washi tape, flair button, journal tags, resin flowers, gardenia, and mini roses. Such a pretty kit. 

 I created a mixed media backround with texture paste, colour bursts, ink and stamping. I really love how this all came together. 

For my title, I used a lovely Dusty Attic chipboard word. 

Lovely

I hope you have enjoyed looking at my creations over the last year, as much as I have enjoyed sharing them. 

Happy Scrapping xxx
