This months challenge is called Orange Peel.  Orange isn't a colour I use very much when scrapbooking so I went through my drawers to see what I could find. I've had the big flower for a long time so I was determined to use it.  I coloured in the chipboard to be orange to fit in better. The title placement was somewhat accidental, I realised near the end that I needed to put the title in so I fitted in it vertical rather than horizontal.  I think it goes well with the climbing theme.

This month's challenge at Kraft + is a Denim Revolution, to use denim in some way on your creation. I had at once stage had a pocket from an old pair of jeans sitting in my drawer but it seems that I had cleaned it out as it been there so long and I thought I wouldn't need it for anything. So I went down to the local opshop to look for a cheap pair of jeans, and found one with a pretty pattern on the pocket.  I was ok to chop them up for the pocket as they were a size 10 and would of course never fit me! I then found a photo of a younger Chelsea in a pair of overalls so that photo had to be used.  Neither of my girls got to wear overalls much so I was surprised to find the photo. I struggled for a while with the title.  I wanted to use those alphas as the colour fit in well but there was only one 'e'.  I knew I had the word 'overall' so spent time searching for another word without an 'e'.  I liked the play on words, even if hubby found it a bit...
