Here is my interpretation!
Very different for me - no paint, no mist lol



I used Bella Blvd Birthday boy paper - it is orange chevron, but stripes never photograph very well !
I also used Bella Blvd alphas from Thankful range and the funky shaped chippies are from bisous Zoo (2008!)
Thanks for popping over to my blog!

SOME LAYOUTS I CREATED OVER THE WEEKEND IN PORT FAIRY



Thanks for popping by my blogxx

MY LAYOUT FOR KRAFT IT UP

This month at KIU the challenge is to use misting !!

Here is my layout:
I used Crafters Workshop masks, arrow mask made by Ebony Van der Starre, washi tape, October Afternoon 9-5 brads, Hambley flower rub ons, Amy Tangerine date stamp, October Afternoon label tag, Dylusions sprays.

NEW CHALLENGE UP AT SCRAPTHEBOYS

Wow have you seen the DT layouts for this month's Scraptheboys??

The challenge is scrap a picture of your boy with his favourite book:
I scrapped my husband's hands reading one of his favourite books:  rifle reloading !!



I had scrapped one layout but I was unhappy with it, so while I was away at Port Fairy I scrapped this one : I was sitting next to my beautiful friend Ebony who had started to paint and texture a page and she did not like it - so I cut it in half (as you know I love my 6x12's ) and used it and scrapped my scrapthe boys layout take 2 - !!

I hope you will all take part in this month's challenge!

LOTS OF LAYOUTS FROM THE WEEKEND

I am pleased to say I completed 12 layouts and a half finished canvas on our weekend away, some I cannot show they are secret squirrel projects for DT commitments..
I will photograph them and will blog them here today!
Thanks girls for a relaxing scrappy weekend!
