arTASTIC challenge blog this month has the amazing painting "The Beach" by Chris Wake (below) for inspiration:
I used the Indie Girl papers from my Nook kit here and I didn't have a pic of Nate and I on the beach, must get one this summer, and did you like the little Purple Pumpkin buttons I used for the flower centres?
The criteria for 6 pts is to add a sandcastle or bucket and spade to the layout (3pts)
add some seagulls (2pts)
a family photo at the beach (1pt)
I would love you to join in this month.
I was honoured in October to be Guest DT for Sketches 4 all and Fia has asked me to stay on as DT member and I humbly said YES, they have some fantastic challenges and an amazing DT. I will let you know my November Challenge list soon.
I love Nikki Sivils so when Sketches 4 all had a Nikki Sivils challenge, good friend Michelle Hodges said they were having a contest using her great products I made a layout and was just blown away to have won, but even more blown away that Julie Tucker-Wolek honoured me by showcasing the layout on Nikki's blog. Press HERE for a sticky.
Went to Amanda's for a scrap day yesterday and guess what - I did a layout I was super happy with so I think she helped me get my mojo back. YAY - thanks Amanda.
Good friend Samantha Hauzer who owns Purple Pumpkin designs has this amazing competition going, I just have to tell you their is still some amazing prizes, here is the link and a pic of the stunning prizes is below.
So it's Melbourne Cup today, the ladies from the Tuesday group are coming over for the race day celebrations. Hope you all have a lovely day and thank you all so much for supporting me through my no mojo October, but Novemeber is here and I am excited about the new month. I will be visiting you all later tonight and tomorrow. Until then. Love you all. Melxx
