Dream Big ...

Enjoyed putting a layout together for the challenge on Creative Embellishments this month taking inspiration from the below image and adding in wood.

I decided to concentrate on several of the colours in this piece - the orange, teal and blue as well as focusing on the face image from the image.  I also included a number of clouds on my page as well as wood veneer pieces.  I used a photo of my son with a group of boys from the swim club he belonged to a few years ago.

Archiscraps for April ...

Archiscraps have an interesting challenge this month to SQUEEZE SOMETHING IN BETWEEN.

I decided to go with the approach of putting something between the two photos on my page and I must say I do like the effect.

Soul Scrappers ...

Playing along with a few challenges on Soul Scrappers this month.

*  Participating in the Random Word challenge.

I used Today to showcase an "everyday" page - 1 chore today.

*  I love the concept of GRAB 5 - a great way to use up some older supplies.

Here is what I used ...

and this is the end result ...

* I always like Tic Tac Toe style challenges - great fun mixing things up a bit.

For this one  (TTT47) I used Yellow - Paper Scraps and Ink splatters.

Scrap the Girls in April ...

Playing along with Scrap the Girls with their somewhat quirky challenge for April.

I took this to mean dressing up or putting your best foot forward for an occasion and did a page of my daughter dolled up ready for a night out with her friends.
