A COMPANION FOR 'ALL OUT OF LOVE'

Last night I worked on a page to go to the right of my last one.  I used a sketch from The Memory Nest. The challenge also called for using a 'selfie' so that is me in the top photo.  I ended up doing this one in that same aqua color range as All Out Of Love.  

Here is the Sketch:

And here is the Layout:

I am also going to enter this layout in Anything But a Card at Dilly Beans and Anything Goes challenge #193 at Fab 'n Funky.

Off to work on creating something - I have an altered charger plate and 12 ATCs I need to do for swaps but if I work on those you won't be able to see them until after my partners receive them.  But, check back later anyway!  Thanks for stopping by.

TEA TIME IN THE ENCHANTED WOODS

Come by and join me for a tea party at the Acorn Tearoom.  The tabletop has acorns and oak leaves carved right into it.  Then you must stop by the Tulip Tree House, built from a giant tulip-poplar tree that had lived for over 100 years.  If you open the tiny door carefully you can actually go inside the tree! 

Today's creation was done with lots of Shine and Sparkle (Stickles and Liquid Pearls) for challenge #244 at Crafty Creations Challenges, my background paper is Coordinations embossed cardstock which has lots of texture for the challenge at Try It on Tuesdays. For Fab 'n Funky challenge #189 the flowers are spots and my photo mats have stripes.  At Whoopsi Daisy this week the challenge calls for using spots (the flowers) and dots (on the tea cup).  I am also linking up with The Memory Nest.

And finally - here is my layout:

I hope you enjoyed our little tea party.  Stop back tomorrow for more from the Enchanted Woods.

HAPPY NATIONAL HONEY MONTH

September is National Honey Month.  I created a layout of Thomas' first day of High School using hexagons as honey combs as his school mascot is the yellow jacket.  I used a Crafters Workshop Template with Dry Dex Spackling which I colored with Stickels and Liquid Pearls.  I did this for the Colorful Creations Say It With Words challenge - use the name of your school and I used a September Page Maps sketch from Scrapbook.com.

For the Kraftie Krea8tions challenge I created some cards using Winnie the Pooh and his love of honey.  

For the first one I used sketch #277 from Sketch Saturday, and the color orange for Kaboodle Doodles  challenge #190, and inspired by the book Pooh's Five Little Honey Pots for Challenge #226 at The C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog.

IN SEARCH OF SANTA

My next choice of challenge was from ABC Christmas and the challenge was S is for Santa so I went in search of a Santa embellishment in my stash.  I came across a great batch of Cosmo Cricket Mitten Weather chipboard and decided to run with it.

Here is my first card:

My next challenge was by Fab N Funky and it was something with wings.  I had a great little angel in the chipboard pack and decided she would be perfect.

Card #2:

And just because I had another Santa I went for a third card to this series.

Card #3:

Hope you have enjoyed my early holiday joy!
