D-Lish Scraps February Inspiration Board Challenge

Hello everyone

Ive got 2 posts to share today. 

First up is the new Inspiration Board for D-Lish Scraps

This month we are channeling our inner beach goddess lol who am I kidding... 

Inspired by the beach theme to the board, I thought it was about time I shared a different photo other than Leila. This photo was taken almost 7 years ago when Mum and I travelled over seas (Europe, England and the U.S all in 5 weeks!)

Thats me, 24 years old. Child free, no BF and not a  care in the world. Enjoying the beach in North Carolina. We have family that live over there, and boy was it a magical time! I hope that one day I can share that wonderful link in our family history with Leila and Clinton.

Anyway, back to the page. I searched high and low for a pattern paper that suited the board just right. I came across this one I'd been 'hoarding' from Pink Paislee. I wanted to use it for the right photo. I think Ive chosen well. I went for a multi alpha title and sewed down those that weren't very sticky.

Mixed up embellishments from the shop, into clusters above the photo, the top of the page...

and the bottom right corner. A perfect mix.

I also added in a layer or 2 of the white tule under the photo, but above the paper layers.

January Inspiration Board for D-Lish Scraps

Hello! Happy New Year

I hope you all have a safe and fun end to 2014 and a fresh and happy start to 2015

Today Im sharing the new Inspiration Board for D-Lish Scraps

Tutti Fruitti - Fun, bright, bold & Fruity! This board reminds us all of SUMMER!

I took my inspiration from the bright pops of colour, and that multicoloured fruit (bottom left corner) reminded me of the many 'pie chart' style pages Ive seen filling up the www throughout 2014. I just new what I wanted to achieve for this page.

To make the Pie chart I made a rough circular template with some card and cut it into sections. I then attacked a pile of Bags in various colours and patterns that complimented not only the photo I chose, but the inspiration board colour palette. I've added in some vellum and a doily from my stash to soften the bright pops of colour slightly and to add some more dimension to the page. 

I filled in some of the blank white space to the right of the page by using some 'Whipped Spackle' and a new Scrap FX stencil from the store. And lastly the clusters of embellishments, Journal It's a sprinkling of Freckled fawn dots and some splatters of Color Shine..

and one of the larger cluster of D-Lish goodness

Welcoming back D-Lish with Those Curls

Hello,

Exciting news to share today!

Im back on the D-Lish Scraps Inspiration Team

This month we had an awesome Inspiration board to work with "Summer Sorbet"

I really loved that hearts image (bottom left) so I created my background around using a 12x12 Heidi Swapp stencil, some whipped spackle, gelatos and glitter.. It turned out so well I considered framing it rather than adding more to it lol

I then added in a good mix of different embellishments from the D-Lish store

A cluster of D-Lish goodness framing the top corner of the photo includes 

2 Wildflowers in Cream and Coral

a Defining words flair button

a fancy edge pick n place bow and a piece of coloured wire that I wound around a pen, both kept in place with a mini wooden peg

a 'right now' journal it from the Buttercup Monochrome Journal it pack

freckled fawn veneer star

and finished off with some D-Lish dots in Ocean and Sunset are hidden under the cluster poking out from the top.

On the top right of the page I've cut out some wordfetti and a flag from the bottom strip of the backing paper, and glued on a mini cabbage rose.

Bottom left of the page Ive cut out sewed down another wordfetti strip, banner from the bottom of the backing paper and a Journal it date tag from the Buttercup monochrome pack

and yes I did forget to date that tag before I took the photo, whoops!

Next I've added some alphas from stash. They weren't sticky enough to grip onto the Coloured Tulle, so I've sewn them down to hold them in place, before adding in another hand curled piece of coloured wire

Last of all I added in the wood veneer photo corners to complete the page
