Fun in the Sun

This is an interesting sketch challenge from the Scrapmuch! blog. I set out with a plan but that went out the window as I worked. I admire those scrappers who plan their pages and work to that plan. My pages evolve from one minute to the next. I never know which way it is going to go and the finished product sometimes even surprises me. I Have turned the sketch around a little but have retained the basis of the sketch.I like the beachy theme and also the colours.

I hope you enjoy my page. Happy Scrapping. Heather B.

Fabulous

I love doing the Stuck! Sketches challenges and this month they have collaborated with ScrapMuch. This Was such a fabulous photo of Chloe and both the sketch and colour challenge worked well together.

Enjoy the Moment

I'm limping along with my computer. It has been three weeks since I have been able to post a blog and being as computer literate as I am it has been very frustrating. So if something untoward appears, apologies in advance. White With One have an interesting colour challenge this month. Celosia Orange.Once again a bit of research and hopefully I have risen to the challenge.Because of the intensity of the colour I decided to use a black and white photo and use the colour as accents.It is not a colour that I enjoy working with but I was happy with the result. I hope you enjoy my interpretation and feel free to leave a comment.

Sweet Summertime

I have had these photo's of Chloe for a while and wanted to do a fresh sea side page with them but inpiration had not arrived. When I saw the White with One challenge which was Placid blue with white these photo's immediately came to mind. The blue Manor House paper as the background worked well with the photo's and really immersed the photo's into the page.
I think Chloe would have tried to catch that seagull if she could have got closer to it.

 

Thank you for looking at my page.

Happy Scrapping.

All That Glitters

I started this page at the beginning of December and then other things got in the way.....eg Christmas, birth of a new grandson... wow!
I realized I only had a day left for the challenge for White with One and I wanted to finish the page because I loved this photo so much. The enchantment of christmas. So one very late night later and  here it is. Firstly the main challenge was what colour is paloma. A bit of research and I hope it meets the criterea. Also the page needed to focus on the photo and I found this beautiful page for the background from the Websters collection All That Glitters and bingo it also gave me the title for the page.

Happy Scrapping.

Sweet Oranges

The Christmas rush is over. It was a lovely time to catch up with family. To watch the delight and joy of the grandchildren opening their presents. Now I am having a lovely lazy day finishing a page that I started a week or so ago. When our oranges were ripe on the tree Chloe thoroughly enjoyed the sweetness and the juicieness. It was a great crop of fruit.These photo's show the intense concentration and enjoyment. so I used them for the Stuck?!Sketches challenge.

 

Happy Scrapping.

Go You Good Thing!

The girls at Stuck Sketches have a great sketch challenge with multiple photo's. I love these because I so often don't use photo's that complete a story because I am focussing on one photo...the really great one that you love and that has turned out perfect. This is my selection for this challenge. My daughter and friends at the races.

 

I hope you enjoy my page.Happy scrapping.
