(in no particular order)

Tanya Heritage (Australia)

Louise Turner (Australia)

Scraplifted from: http://scrapfloring.over-blog.com/

as found on Pinterest - Totally love this layout!

Lisa Johnston (Australia)

The little T Rex embellishment from Crate Paper Boys Rule was the start of this whole layout - it was so cute and the perfect colour.

Jessica Toulmin (New Zealand)

I was inspired by the high lights and low lights of the girls hair and the weaved trim/ fabric - slightly different variations of the same colour. I decided to punch a whole bunch of flowers in slightly different orange patterned papers, to get the same look. I layered two different sizes of the flowers, using orange patterned paper as well as white paper and plain vellum. I attached a strip of orange patterned paper across the top and bottom of the layout, and did some orange water colour behind the photo (hence the warped paper - it will flatten in my album!)

Lisa Marie Watling (South Africa)

Michelle Van Oudtshoorn (New Zealand)

From the moodboard, I was inspired with red haired lady, hence the photo and the swirls on the lace, which is why I used the chipboard frame

Natsuko Suzuki (Japan)

I was inspired by the different textures in the moodboard so I used several stencils and modeling paste to create a variety of them. I also used typed words. This is my daughter with her loveing teddy bear. The picture was taken at a different year, but she still has the habit of keeping him beside her♡

Melinda France (Australia)

The mood board made me think retro so I dug into an old stash of basic grey papers for this one. The braided ribbon made me think stitching or ribbon so I added a lot of sewing too.

Marie-France Boulay (Canada)

I was totally inspired by this vibrant color and automatically visualise the monarch butterfly and the pumpkin. I used letters for my background like the typewriter.

Our October guest ...

Please welcome Laura Rumble (UK) as our guest designer this month with her layout based on our ELEPHANT GREY colour for our challenge this month.

Process Video: https://youtu.be/zT6_na6Z3S8 

I am Laura, a crafty Auntie to two from the UK.  I love scrapbooking 12x12 pages and creating papercraft projects.  I also love to paint and generally get messy and create pretty stuff. 

I have M.E./C.F.S. and so am very restricted in what I am able to do.  Walking and moving about – not great. Sitting still and creating, with nap breaks – definitely my thing!

You can find me online here:
