PURPLE PUMPKIN JUNE CHALLENGE

I'm a Purple Pumpkin fan...as I know a lot of you are! Their June sketch challenge is up:

June Sketch
I decided to use some of my goodies from Scrap Friends. I've really, really enjoyed these Pink Paislee papers & they work beautifully with my PP buttons. A few hand made flowers by 'moi' here as well.
CUTE PP button! Can you see the Greatest View mini doily behind the white Maya Road flower petal that I got from the lovely Bec over at SCRAP JACKED for a little win I had a while ago? I LOVE them!

I've made the PP button into a flower & these are a couple of my hand made ones.



I've used a Prima 'gate' mask on the bg with Shimmerz Mango Madness & then Snow Storm over the top. LOVE these mists from the Scrap Friends store! Can you see the Pink Paislee rub ons?

I've also used some Washi tape. I really, really like that stuff!!!! For those of you who have admitted to not trying it...you GOTTA...I know, I know, more 'stuff'...but it's GREAT stuff!!!!
And it's DAY 9 & 10 over at Photo a Day.....
Day 9: Your view today: Well, I just got my BIGSHOT from Scrap Friends...so naturellement:):)
Day 10: Best bit of the weekend: Yep, the cuppa DH always brings to me..often more than one, I must confess, in bed:):):)
Can I give a couple of 'shouts' to both ARTASTIC where I won a little challenge....my goodies arrived in the mail before I had time to blink. THANK YOU for such lovely embellies & quick sending:):) Please have a go at their challenge...the more the merrier, as they say!
Also, our SCRAP FRIENDS inspiration challenge closes in FOUR days...not many peeps in it yet, so if you've time, the chances of winning are pretty high! And who wouldn't want the chance to be a Guest Designer or get some goodies from our store?
Lastly, don't forget KIANDRA'S GIVEAWAY, which ends tomorrow. Info is also on my side bar:):)
Well, Us Ozzies have another day 'til the weekend's over [sorry, Rest of the World!!!]...ENJOY!

  6. Firstly, what an amazing achievement, massive congratulations!! My daughter has just finished her course at Uni and starts teaching in Sep - it has been a long hard road for her, not least because she is a single Mum, but I think if you have to face adversity and you still make it, then success is all the sweeter :0) So back to your scrapping achievements....brilliant too! Love the misting and your handmade flowers. I adore that paper, just made a mini with mine :0) I have 'adjusted' my bad layout, I haven't taken any photos yet, so keep your eyes peeled!!
