Lasting Memories - 503 - Sparkle

#503 - Sparkle
Continuing on with our theme of celebrations this month, we are asking you to create a layout with some "Sparkle" on it.. Glittered ALPHA's are a great way to do is.. 

LASTING MEMORIES LAYOUT CHALLENGES 

with you

Making memories with my boys is most certainly my most favourite thing to do in this world... EVER!

This photo was taken just 6 months ago during our summer holidays at the Gold Coast theme parks. This one was while waiting for the Stunt Show to begin at Movie World. 

The sparkle on my layout is from the glitter in the flowers and the alpha title.. 

I chose a black background cardstock so it would help to feature the glitter sparkle.. It isn't captured in the photos very well, but in real life it definitely does, thankfully! 

This was the first time I created the little flutter-by floating flowers thing, it was fun! 

Using Coco Vanilla papers, a couple strips of black glitter washi, flowers and title - there really isn't much to this layout but it's still so effective. The colours are so vibrant and fun, that there really is no need to add much more or go overboard.. The photo is matted but nothing else done.. I didn't even ink this layout... lol

Cyber Crop - White With One - June 2020

Challenge 1 -
use a sketch + photo 3x4 or smaller + 1 stencil + 2 fussy cuts + 3 pattern papers + add extras

This stunner is another friends daughter - Lani.. 

I used the Mystique Nightwind collection... The sketch that was used as inspiration, I flipped and used a few more fussy cuts than I was suppose to also.. lol 

 

Challenge 2 - Scrap your stash
white cardstock + 1x colour of your choice  + 2x flower clusters + 3x bling / dots + 4x patter papers

This layout features a photo of my Mum and my oldest son at his school Senior Commitment Mass at school earlier this year.. 

I chose green and to scrap more of the 6x6 paper pad that I actually used for the next challenge.. lol 

The green mist actually suits much closer in real life, the camera seems to have brighten it a bit.. oops.. 

I used a gorgeous Mandela ready cut sheet from Scrapbook Fantasies and the "Memory Lane" collection from Kaiser.. 

Some bling and gauze finished off the layout with the fussy cut flower clusters.. 

 

Challenge 3 -  Colour from the photo background
3 or more photos + embellishment that doesn't go with the theme + doily / mixed media

It features stunning photos of a friends daughter - Ella, that I have used a few times the past few weeks.. It is such a dream to be able to create with these photos! 

I used the "new adventures" die cuts, stamps and cogs by Couture Creations and paper from the "Memory Lane" collection by Kaiser. Then chose to do both some mixed media and add a doily.. 

The colour I focused on was the sand in the background of the photos and cogs are the embellishments that don't go with the "girly beachy" theme.. 

 

 

You still have time to drop over and join in with these challenges or even just say HI on the crop event page.... Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend.. Right now I am actually inside a local scrap shop helping with stocktake this weekend.. Loving it as this is right up with my relaxing zone, weird I know... Plenty of laughs and wow it's been so good to see my crafty friends after so long being locked in by covid.. 

Happy Scrapping..
