Challenge # 829 - Captain's Log

Happy Wednesday, all!  This week the challenge is "Captain's Log" which means we want to see either wood/faux wood (using designer paper, embossing folder, sticks etc.) or an image of wood (trees, logs etc.) or some type of log (aka record - think journal or diary page, calendar etc.) or you could even focus on the "Captain" part and do something with a ship or armed forces....or if there's another way you'd like to channel the challenge theme, go right ahead!  (Just make sure you tell us in your post if it's not obvious).

And remember, we're not just about cards!  We'd love to see your scrapbook layout, tag, bookmark, altered item - any papercraft goes!

This is what I did....

As you can see, I've got wood look patterned paper and I've used a house, which using wood in its construction.  

If you'd like more inspiration, do check out what the other Girlfriends have created, then head on back here and link up your project.

Can't wait to see what you create!

CHALLENGE # 828 - Halloween!

 Hello everyone,

Chrissy here with you this week as your hostess with a theme not everyone likes..HALLOWEEN.

I don't celebrate Halloween here in NZ but I do like to dabble in the purples and yellows  and creepy things lurking in the corners, or fun and whimsical, so if you enjoy the fun side of Halloween ( or spooky ) come and join in this week, would love to see all you have..

This is what I made..

A simple water colouring background in purples and black, a giant moon with bats and some houses that came already spooky and I just layered them, up..

So link up below and don't forget to check out the girlfriends projects, they have DT beside their name..

Have fun..

Luv CHRISSYxx

Challenge #826 - I'm Still Standing

 Happy Wednesday! Kate here with another Elton John-inspired challenge. This time, the song of choice is "I'm Still Standing". I'm looking for projects of encouragement - and you can interpret that however you'd like! Get well, congratulations, I believe in you, I love you, you've got this, etc. The written sentiment doesn't even have to be there. Perhaps it's a scrapbook page celebrating a milestone or a bouquet of paper flowers to cheer up a friend. 

I decided to do a scripture journal page to encourage myself!

Check out the Girlfriends' wonderful projects below (marked DT) and then link up a project of your own. I'm excited to visit your blog to see what you've created!
