Didn't you all just love
Jennifer Grace's Onwards and Upwards blog hop last weekend?
One of her challenges was to go up, and up, and up. There was a few options and I went with the one to use a photo inspired with the idea of flight - I immeadiately thought of some photos from a trip to London earlier this year to visit my sister. We went to a food show and as we left we noticed that we were at the launch pad for the Emirates cable cars across the Thames.
I used American Crafts and other travel ranges and layered 'up' as was one of the other prompts in this challenge.
I also used the Dear Lizzie Range to create the layout below of our Mother's Day celebrations. I keep meaning to post the recipe for the honey cake pictured below top - it was so yummy and I was so impressed that I could create an actual layer cake as opposed to cupcakes. This layout was also created with the 'up' prompt in mind and I used the chevron paper to use arrows on the page.
Lastly the above layout of our mother's day meal. I used the 'to be inspired' prompt of using triangles to create direction on a page. I used Studio Calico wood veneers and Amy Tangerine stamps to decorate this layout and some other American Crafts papers to layer it up. I have a thickers and lettering shortage at the moment and so created the title using leftovers from several sheets.
These prompts all worked well with the way that I like to scrap and I am pleased with them.
You've really taken the 'up' theme to heart :). I live your multiphoto pages - really bright and interesting.
ReplyDeleteyou have some lovely elements on these pages Mel - especailly the plane paper..how cool is that! x
ReplyDeleteThese all look awesome! I love the speech bubble journaling on the first page - plus I didn't know about the cable cars so now I want to go on them!
ReplyDeleteLove the chevrons on the second page and the mixed alphas on the last layout. You've been working hard, I'm so pleased I inspired you!
Thanks for entering the challenges! x
