Kraft + Challenge for February

For the month of February, Kraft + has a challenge called Coastal Chic.  A sketch and colour challenge.
Blue-greens and browns with a great sketch.  I love using sketches to help me scrap, makes for less thinking for me.  And blue is my favourite colour, even though I don't have a lot of it to work with as pink seems to have taken over!
In spite of my lack of blue, I managed to create two layouts this month.  The second one I did as I recently purchased some lovely Faber Castell gelatos and I was keen to try them out.

Here is the sketch:


This is my first layout:



And this is my second layout, much more happy with this layout:

White with 1 April challenge

The colour for the month of April is Toffee Crunch, a nice light brown colour. I flicked through some of my older photos and found this one, from a camping trip my husband and I went on back in 2009.  Looking at other photos from the same day, I still can't figure out where we were at the time we took the photo!! We were on a lovely beach, water flowing down the sand and we found these little bird feet marks in the sand. I have used some stamping and stenciling, some burlap behind the photo and chopped up some letters to get the ones I needed!  :)

White with One February

The colour for February at White with One is Sizzling Pink. Having two girls to scrap I have plenty of pink but not much that sizzles so much of the layout is more soothing than sizzling. I decided once I saw that it was pink, that I wanted to use some of the many pink buttons I have in my stash, so I have made a circle of them, alternating light with dark. I recently got some lovely chipboard swirls and inked them pink, but realised it was too light.  So I found a sizzling pink nail polish and used that instead.  Sometimes you have to think outside of the box to get the colour you want!!

White with 1 July

I used one of my purple gelatos with some water to create the shaped border.  I punched out the butterflies from some paint samples I had used for another challenge months ago and added some bling. The page behind the photos is the same gelato on a page from an old book, with a few flowers and stickers added on. I even managed to figure out a word for the title from some shiny purple alphas I have.
