Challenge 1 - Sparkle and Texture

When thinking of this month's theme, my mind when to descriptive words, and sparkle and texture came to mind, so add some to your page!!

I've added texture with texture paste and a stencil, and sparkle with Wink a Stella on all my flowers.

I've used Cocoa Vanilla's Daydream collection for my page, I adore these colours,  I fussy cut the flowers from Garden Variety paper, and layed with Sunshower.

I coloured some texture paste and used a stencil on 2 corners, then added a nice generous amount of Frosted Sugar for a bit of extra sparkle amongst my flowers! 




Hope you have fun with this challenge!

Challenge 2 - 

I am going with the "Fire" theme with this challenge

You are required to use Red, Orange & Yellow - You can use one, two, or all three of these colours plus use a stencil. I have used all three colours.

The inspiration for this layout came from a video by Allison Davis. You can see her video here.

The triangles on this layout reminded me of the Pyramids we saw while we were holding in Egypt, where this photo was taken.


 I used Modelling Paste, which I coloured with acrylic paint in Sunshine Yellow and Dusty Attics Criss Cross stencil to create a textured pattern on some orange cardstock. I am going to use this as a patterned paper on the layout

I am using some white cardstock for my background. To add a little interest I splattered Tattered Angels Chalkboard spray in Valencia all over it.

I cut an assortment of different sized squares from Simple Stories - Hello summer - Catching RaysSimple Stories - Hello Summer - Life is Good and Kaisercraft - Native Breeze - Native Flock and the orange cardstock with the added texture paste.

To create the triangles I marked the middle of one side of each square and then cut from the two corners on the opposite edge to the centre mark. I cut approx 10 squares to begin with and placed them onto the layout leaving a thin white border between each triangle then I cut more triangles as I needed them to fill in the design and extend it out to the size I needed so the triangles were visible around each edge of the photo. Once I was happy with the placement of the triangles I inked the edges and attached them to the background using glue. I used my T-Ruler to make sure the first triangle was straight so all of the other triangles would be straight as I lined them up.

The photo measures 8" x 4.5". I matted this on white cardstock so it had a 1/16" border on all sides.

A piece of chipboard was attached to the back of the photo before it was added to the layout.

The words Sunset and Nile were cut on my Scan N Cut from black cardstock. To complete my title I used some stickers from Basic Grey.


My layout now looked like this and I had planned to stop here.

After looking at the layout for a few minutes I thought it looked a little bare so I fussy cut some of the small flowers from Simple Stories - Hello Summer - Oh Happy Day.

After looking at the layout for a few minutes I thought it looked a little bare so I fussy cut some of the small flowers from Simple Stories - Hello Summer - Oh Happy Day.

I had inked around the edges of each flower and attached them to the top left hand and the bottom right hand corners of the layout. So you can see the difference those few flowers made.

I have to admit I do prefer the layout with the flowers but the part of me that likes clean layouts is still pretty keen on the layout without the flowers


There is a process video and you can see it here.


Thank you for being here today.
Till next time
Stay safe

Challenge 3 - 

   Hi Crafters ... Louise here. 

My challenge is to feature the colour blue and use a stencil.


This is my first time using the Nuvo glitter drops
I've used my spatula and applied it through the Uniquely Creative Stencil

Here are the supplies used for this layout:



I needed a title so I used the Delightfully Ordinary Moments chipboard and coated it with black

To finish I've added just a little bit of fussing cutting, some tags and cheese clothe.


Thanks for visiting ... I hope you have fun with this months challenge.
