Arts Adventure

A couple of weekends ago a friend and I went to Toowoomba for some classes taught by the gorgeous Trisha Ladoucer from Edmonton in Canada. I did all five of the classes and was a bit wrecked by the end of the weekend. These two layouts are from one class. I have finally put the photos on. I still have the other classes to finish. What an awesome time was had by all who attended.

CSI #73

Another CSI layout and I enjoyed the colours this week. I decided to use photos of DH's car that he has spent a fortune on having done up!!! It really is his pride and joy and he will only take it out for a drive when It's NOT raining...lol!!! Took me ages to get the background done and I'm loving it!! Used texture paste, stencils and ink. I always try and use the "extras" that are given to us instead of rummaging in my stash for papers. This is another Page Drafts sketch...as you can tell I LOVE them!!!  

Thanks for taking the time to look at my projects.

CSI #72

The colours for this week's challenge were certainly not me and I found it a real struggle!!! I used another of Em's sketches to get me started.

CSI #71

Gosh I have been scrappin' up a storm...thank goodness I have some mojo back! Also life just gets in the way sometimes...make that a LOT!! These are not my normal colours I like to work with but enjoyed doing this layout. I've tried to match my background with one of the lovely papers we got from CSI. Sort of looks the same. We also used a sketch by the gorgeous Em Stafrace from Page Drafts...LOVE her sketches!!!

Scrapboutique April/May Challenges

For the April challenge we had to do a layout with NO P/P! A challenge for me from the onset. I didn't finish mine in time but never late than never I say!  

The May challenge was set by Karen and we had to use this sketch, do a layout with a photo/journal about ourself. Not one of my favourite things to do!

 

 

I used some Prima Lyric with other bits and bobs.

Thanks for making a visit to my blog...love comments!!!
