A2Z Scraplets December Challenge

A2Z Scraplets
my inspiration came form the  checkered board,  i  first thought of a calendar page, but   i added the  colours of the checkered board and soon covered  whole calendar page .( wheres the calendar gone )

I have used
Kaiser card stock

i have used  Kaiser  scraps   fun in the sun papers, and  touch of gold again out of my scrap papers, ( that i was going to donate  to  a lady whos 84 years old and sill makes cards, she said to me any scraps doesn't matter how small it all helps, i  have collected her a  large  box  to  keep her going over Christmas and new year. and will give to her tomorrow

for my chipboard,  which  i declare is not a2z  , maybe next time , these are Kaisers  ladders and  alphabets

i  have  made the fun and 2016 i have rubbed wax on them , then added glossy accents over

the wax tubs can be purchased from Scrapmatts

the of and in are  inked with a black gel pen and then again covered  in glossy accents,
i have added some Kaiser bling to the letter i

these are some of my challenges  that i have done in the past year, ( of course , not all  195 of them, )  im wondering in the  next 6   days i can get another 20 to go to finish the 216 layouts on one year, for the 216 challenge,  im getting tired LOl  but still have to  add  the Christmas decorations  around the house,  as family are coming here for a change.

 may not make it , but  know that i have come this close, 195 from 216  layouts is not that bad

will have to ask Santa  can i have a rest soon please

thank you once again for these awesome  challenges,

not sure if next year be able to continue, for  all months of challenges , may have  some rest times as new adventures are arising  starting in February, 2017.  will do what i can, when im home

Looking forward to seeing  what you have installed,  Keep up the good work,

Wishing you all a safe and merry Christmas and a prosperous

new year.
thanks for visiting my blog,

1 2 3 challenge

Thanks   1 2 3  for this amazing  challenge

1  colour    -  Silver
2 word       -  Believe
3 technique  -  layers

at the start of December, i thought, gosh, i dont have  much in line with  silver, and layers  ohh, the word believe, i would think about,  & getting close to Christmas, would i have time for all my challenges, maybe  give it a miss on all,  but thats  not me, i like to  give them all a go,

it wasn't til last night, that i was talking to my hubby and said  , i really like doing  the 1 2 3 challenge, but the paper  is getting me stumped,  he suggested i use aluminium foil ,  something a bit different,  and so  my layout begun. ( he doesn't usually help in  the scrapping area)
 
At a recent Craft Alive here in Logan,  Sofia from Scrapmatts showed me  this awesome    little tub of  wax,
Im trying to  get stuff that does not take up a lot of room , so when Sofia showed me this wax,   next question  which colour combo to get,   just buy all of them , just use  your finger to apply,  no need for special tools, love that idea,  then i have every colour, would you believe there is silver in it   and gold for my next challenge,  ( that i also have been hanging off to do )  & brass ,which i dont think i will have much use for ,  but you never know hey

so i have coloured the  presents, tree,  the word believe  in this Metallic wax rub on
Also at scrapmatts  some small chipboard that had the word believe.

i thought well, im not  going to do it all  silver, add some colours to the mix,  while sorting for papers,  in my scraps ,( funny what you find in your papers ,what are they doing here  always a  treasure  to find things in my   stash )  i then came across  doilies ,which are in silver and gold,  ( which is another challenge.  yeehaa )
 
i felt that  it needed something else, so got out my new  Heidi swapp stickers,  ohh yes, its silver, why didnt i think of this before  i started to lay it down to see where it would look nice,  and part of it stuck to the photo, well, i guess you are going here , as i  did not want to  ruin the photo  i think it just finished off the layout,

I have  used  my new Kaiser dies  and created  the  word Christmas  and  the Reindeer and the  Baubles all with the aluminium foil  it took a bit to get them  though  getting the right  depth, so a it would not cut right though or not enough.  a few attempts to get it right, but  hey, im so wrapped  with it ,


no cardstock is used in this layout,
I have used
I have used  a combination of  Scrapmatts and Kaiser  chipboards,
Kaiser  papers  - silent night,
D'Lish  heart silver doilies
Creative die -woodland  scene die
Heidi  Swapp  sticker sheet  Love this (  a prize from  sketchy boards a few months ago)
cheap circle  doily ( another hidden treasure )
 glossy accents on presents, tree

im soo happy with this layout, im wondering if i can find more paper to now do a double  layout to  put the rest of the photos from this event  finished.

Until , next year,  wishing all   you a very Merry Christmas  and a Wonderful   and Exciting New Year,
 well,  now i have gold,  i can begin the next challenge, and then  have a few days to put my stash away   and finally see a floor.  before the family arrive for Christmas
 
thanks for stopping by, see you all next year for  more exciting challenges.  there may be some months where im not available,  but thats life hey.

123 November challenge

Thanks  1 2 3 for this great challenge,
i did not think  that i would have the time or  energy to  do this one,  but  tonight, being the last  night, why not give it a go, it wasn't til yesterday, that i was looking though photos  that i saw my friend jenny was in peach for her surprise birthday   4 years ago,
i have had  and still have allergies, since the 8th November ,so haven't felt like doing any scrapping in general,
I have used crafty weave  card stock  just the pretty  peach that  was required
i have used Kaiser  Blue bell  6 x 6 papers and   have  popped it up with black card stock,
The flowers are part of my  prize from another  challenge  2  months ago that i won,
i   have pleated a  bit of left over peach card stock
and found some  hexagon papers  that ive  had for ages,
the cake is  part of some collectables,
my friend Jenny, was pretty   surprised at her 60th birthday party, she only thought she was going to her sisters place and having a small dinner  with family, she ws totally surprised, when she  came and saw her  school friends there , that  we have not seen each other for over  15 years , so  was really a fun night .
 can not wait   to see what you have installed for  December

 one is colour  - peach
two is   word  pretty   in banners

Kraft Plus October Challenge

A few months ago  i thought, im never going to  use those brads, eyelets again, i  might as well sell them &  collect some  money to buy  new stuff  (  which i  have  just recently, have added to this page ,but not said what it is  as its not old ) LOL

in doing so ,   i thought just maybe i  will keep 10 of each of each colour  brads & eyelets, so  have little containers whew,  what a relief when i saw  your challenge
,
 I have used :-
brads
rick rac,
ribbon
punches
  Kaisers  Fun in the Sun  Paper Collection, March  2008 ( now thats going back some years,  i have  the books &  its in book 5,   its about time i  used  more of that paper hey.


i have cut out circles and have layered , inked and distressed the  edges.
my first idea was to create the bus , but  circles kept popping up in my head, to do circles for a change,
i recently  watched someone  create  awesome  cards, using shaving cream &  food colouring , so  have added  just a small  amount onto the left hand side of page  that has colours  that go with the page, (  it does smell nice the layout LOL)

until next month,
thank you for another great challenge.
