Good Times

Shiloh and Shannon have been buddies a long time now, and when they get together we sometimes get the craziest photos!
 
These were taken before the Year 8 dinner at Winnie Bagoes in December 13. It's taken me a while to scrap the photos, but it actually was a very quick layout (for me lol) in the end.

 
 The paper (Kaleidoscope) and wooden branch are from Kaisercraft, as is the chevron stamp (I love this little cutie). The glitter paste is from Bo Bunny, and the flowers are Petaloo both available from The Paper Teapot. Washi is from Papervine.

This page was made with the following quote from Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge in mind

Use paper or embellishments you have had in your stash for a long time or you can scrap about something you have you have had for a long time. You can use one prompt or both - up to you!

Considering the time some of my stash has been sitting there, this was the perfect push to use it!

Axl Rose aka Breanna


This must have been nearly the quickest I've ever completed a page...I'm well known for taking hours and hours swapping elements and sighing over the look!!
 
These photos were taken just after Breanna had got home from attending her prefect camp for North Division, the blue bandanna was their symbol. I'd told her how much she looked like Axl Rose, so she swiped Mark's beer to complete the look :)
 
I made this page after seeing the colour challenge on Papervine - don't you think it works in perfectly?
 

The paper, stickers and tin pins are October Afternoon; those, along with the red washi and wire elements are all available from Papervine. The stencil is by Kaisercraft. I used a sketch from Scrapbooking Memories as a prompt.

Summer Gelatos

When we headed off on holiday this summer one of the places we spent some time at was Mapua, both the wharf and the township. Shiloh, Fran and I drove there and met Breanna and Mark who biked to Rabbit Island then caught the ferry over. It was a sizzling hot day, and there was a little store that sold the most amazing Gelatos - yum!
 
This layout was inspired by the April Scrap Around the World Mood Board, which is shown here...
 
I have used Kaisercraft Sandy Toes collection available from The Paper Teapot, a trinket from Papervine, modelling paste, Bo Bunny glitter paste, seed beads, micro beads, muslin and some shells I have had in my stash for about 12 years!

Thanks for looking, and as always please leave a comment if you like it!
