August Update

Finally got my layout finished for the August monthly comp, over at SBS the requirements were:
1. All page elements must all be held within an area of no larger than an 8" square/circle etc, meaning your scrapping area can not exceed these boundaries
2. ALL TEXT on the page has to be hand written including your title
3. Somewhere on your page you have to show and use a piece of packaging from any scrapbook product


Also received 2 atcs swap back, the first is from ATC groupies, the theme was black/white and colour of your choice, thanks girls they such a gorgeous set.

Next is the july swap for Scrapbook Dreams, which was travel destination, also another gorgeous set, think i might need to buy another folder as my one doesnt want to close now,

We had a swap for a 6x6 niche canvas over at Glamour Girls, this is the one i made for Ngaere, i decided to try something different and got out my sculpy, to make the tree and the birds eggs, we had to include lace and flowers somewhere on the canvas, my birds nest is made out of wire but i also incorperated the lace into it as well as a few other bits and bobs as birds do, i received Ngaeres canvas, i will upload a pic as well as the Zodiac ATC swap from SBS, definitely a must see :)







A few weeks back, Carol sent me some perspex, i had all but forgotten about it till she reminded me :) so thought i better have a play with it, i used frosted glass slides, i stamped them then let them dry then used the alcohol inks on the same side, but dont touch too much or add blending solution as it will smudge your stamping, as i learnt ;) and i just adhered with a dot of glossy accents in each corner
