Inspired by the White With 1 challenge I made this page
Using a photo, taken on my mobile phone, of Megan in the outfit we bought for her school social
I used the gorgeous Scrapmatts Butterflies
and added creamy/white things
Like paint, sticker leftovers, masking tape, lace trim, clear dymo tape and some alphas
Just finished uploading some things to the Scrapmatts gallery
Will share them all with you but I will start with just these two
This one is inspired by the April White With 1 challenge
I used the leftovers from this page
Stuck them onto the white cardstock and then put gesso over the top to make them white
I added some black + white = grey
painted some Scrapmatts flourishes to make some exhaust fumes (!??!!!)
and cut a ornate frame piece in half to create a photo corner
and I typed up the journaling
I also made this page
just because I love kraft on kraft
I used the cool packet of Assorted Words
to help tell this story
back later with some more scrapmatts inspired pages
Friday came and Friday is about to go
The new White With 1 challenge is to use white, olive green and twine
So I did
used some bakers twine with a button, a hambly rub on and misted a punched piece of corrugated cardboard
added a Crate rub on to this part of a ticket
and added the other part, with another hambly rub on, to some Prima packaging
and cut out a tag from white cardstock to make my journal spot
Wasn’t till I loaded the photos that I realised that this was Feb this year not June last year
Explains why it felt wrong writing it, June felt too long ago but I couldn’t remember Feb
which just goes to show the two trips have melded into one in my head!!
Just a quick post before I go eat my home made pizza and salad
I scrapped this page for the White With 1 Challenge
Using white as the base + brown + something vintage
something vintage being a cut up doily
See it there nestled with some Such Sweet Tierney buttons?!
That hedgehog is licking his lips
PERFECT
Something vintage would also be the thin brown dymo tape
Oh and see the stick I used, its not a used icy pole stick, it’s from a packet of Rubons
I have a few of those so was glad to give it new life
love me some masking tape + glimmer mist
and the journaling
Right-tee-ho
Off to chow down on my pizza
Today we went and pick up this little chicky
she has been at Mum and Dads for since Saturday
Dropped off Jessica for her turn 
Finished off this page today, started yesterday, inspired by the new White With 1 challenge
Had fun altering things to navy blue or white
with mist or embossing powder
and a trusty navy blue sharpie
used some Jenni Bowlin packaging and dress pattern paper
which I also used for the banner
oh and my dymo even had some dark blue tape, bonus!
and she is truly sweet, I mean to even know I would need a photo with navy blue in it… SWEET
Thanks for stopping by
Cold has almost all gone, yay!!!
Still a lingering cough and am still trying to kick the tiredness
Thankful that Dave is still on holidays
Had a rare day around home today
Thought I would give the White With 1 challenge a go
I loved this photo
Loved that Lucy is still while everything happens around her
So this page was brought to life
Embossed, in white, this dragonfly from Scrapmatts
Layered some doilies from Clara Bows Tea Party's etsy shop with a Martha Stewart paper doily and Such Sweet Tierney buttons
gave my dymo another run
and the misting/masking/fun with some doodling and stitching
PS Winner for the Banana Frog Blog hop was Eriketta, I have passed on your details and hope you hear from someone soon 
Congrats and thanks to all those that hopped over
Now you could be thinking this post is going to be all about coffee
You could be right…
Today I scrapped a page inspired by the White With 1 challenge
Now while I prefer mine black with 2 (HA!) this months challenge is
1. to use white
2. 1 colour (being yellow) and
3. the technique is to journal directly on to your layout
The story, to go with the photos
some stitchy stich stitching
some more stitchy stitch stitching
some coffee cup stain stamp stamping and some swiss cheese punching
and now I am off to drink my black with 2 and try to cool down after a hot hot day
