Scrapbook Challenges - With Scrapping Clearly!

I haven't had time for scrapping for ages - especially scrapping for fun!! So I had some spare time this last week (before school holidays started, which they have now) and decided to play along with a few challenges. This month Scrapping Clearly has 2 great challenges and I had time to create a project for each :)

The first is an inspiration challenge

I just loved this quote so I decided to make it a feature on my page. This photo is from our summer holiday at the beach - and the challenge colours are perfect.

I had some light brown muslin in my stash so I sprayed it a darker brown to suit the challenge colours!

The other challenge for September at Scrapping Clearly is a sketch challenge.

Initially I was a bit overwhelmed with all the photos in this challenge but I found a sequence that worked and added some additional "photo look" embellishments.

I cant till next summer to spend time at the beach again!!

I've had so much fun joining in with this challenge and scrapping for fun! 
All photos have been printed on my Epson XP-600. 

Thanks so much for stopping by
