UK Scrappers - November Week 1

This week's challenge was set by The Indecisives. As they rightly say they are indecisive and so the rules are pretty varied:

- Disney or Through the window or Winter – 5 points

- Credit crunch or the newest piece of stash you have bought – 5 points

- Ribbon & buttons or flower & brads - 5 points

- Must include two different techniques or stamping on its own – 5 points

- One or three photos – 5 points

- Journaling or no journaling at all – 5 points

I have used a template by JubeeFish over at Digi Chick and this layout is also for the weekly Digi Chick challenge. I have used the new Grab Bag for November by Mari Koegelenberg available from the Digi Chick. The stamping is the snowflakes on the main paper.

Digital Scrap Cafe - Template Challenge October 30th

This week we were given a really simple template by Tracy (LovingSue). We went to a Halloween party yesterday and so couldn't resist using some photos of little Darcey. She didn't want to wear her witches hat but she was happy to munch on the halloween cakes. I have used the Happy Halloween kit by Ju Oliveira.

I ahve also used this for the UKS October week 4 challenge. This week's was set by the Scrap Witches. We had to make a 3D layout (20 points), use a handmade embellishment (5 points) and use 3 of something (5 points). As this is a digi layout, I have used shadows to make the layout 3D, my bats are stitched so are handmade (just not by me) and I have used 3 photos.

This week we were given a beautiful template by Sondra Scraps. I have used the Happy Halloween kit by Ju Oliveira to scrap some photos from last year.

I have used the absolutely stunning Party at Magic Valley by Magical Reality Designs. On the paper scroll will be our new address but I have taken off for my blog purposes.
