Awesome ...

Sharing my page made for Off the Rails Scrapbooking this month using this moodboard and criteria of "Recycled".

I pulled out a draw I have that contained pieces f ephemera - old tickets, library cards, receipts, vouchers etc to use in place of patterned paper and then added in salvaged buttons from my button jar and a few other bits and pieces.  I used the teal, green and yellow from the moodboard.

Sweet Boy ...

Joining in with the challenge on Scrap the Boys this month with this rather lovely blue and pink moodboard.

I loved the whimsical feel of this colour combination and more to prove to myself that it was indeed possible to create a boys page in these colours decided to have a go.

I pulled out some papers from Shimelle's Starshine collection along with a selection of sequins, enamels dots and hearts and acrylic stars and basically went to town.  I really like what I have created.

Snow and wood ...

Archiscraps have based their challenge for October on this image ...

Snow and wood ... so I pulled out a series of photos of my kids experiencing snow for the very first time, teamed it with some wood veneer snow flakes I had in my stash and was beginning to think I would never get used and also used the colour scheme seen in the photo.

ARTastic October ...

Our October inspiration on ARTastic comes to you from Lyn Butchart with a piece called Green Peacock.

CRITERIA -  Monochromatic (can be any colour) 

Feel free to use black, white, kraft or navy as your accent colours.

Monochromatic colours are all the colours (tones, tints and shades ) of a single hue.

I decided to do something a little different and got out my container of washi and put them to good use! 

Hope you can find time to play along.

thanks for looking,
