Visiting Great Grandma!

Life in Details is a challenge blog for people that live SMASH*ing or pocket page scrapbooking (eg Project Life). The December challenge is "Anything Goes"!

These SMASH* pages capture photos from a recent visit to my Grandma, my girls Great Grandma. It was great for them to spend time with her - we should do it more often. We all enjoyed doing jigsaw puzzles, having cups of tea and eating!! We also took the opportunity to visit the nearby beach on the way home - brrrr it was cold and windy!

On the LH page I've layered a photo over a chevron bag then embellished with some paper flowers, resin flowers, a crochet doilie and some enamel dots. I've added some twine and washi to my tag. I've used a wood veneer arrow and some arrow washi from Freckled Fawn. I've added a flair, some SN@P word stickers and some Silhouette diecuts.  Lastly I've used a Kellie Stamps "Out and About" stamp from the I made this stamp set.  

On the RH page I've added similar products (my favourites!) as well as some paper doilies!

Thanks so much for stopping by

Life in Details November Challenge!

The November challenge at the Life in Details Challenge blog is to use some fun printables. Head on over to the blog (here) where you can find out how to download them :) There is also heaps of amazing inspiration and some fun prizes to be won!!

My youngest daughter just adores her Teddy (she calls him Garry lol). Every morning she has a difficult time saying goodbye to him when she has to go to school. She loves to dress up and so does teddy of course. The printables worked perfectly with these photos and I used nearly all of them on my pages.

I've also used some of the fun stamps from Kellie Stamps: "You and me", "You me us", "lazy night", and the house image from the My Home stamp set.

The pages are in my Red SMASH* folio and I've also used some October Afternoon alphas; Prima wood veneer house; Freckled Fawn wood veneer heart & arrows; Pebbles roller date stamp; Basic Grey alphas; Amy Tangerine Yes Please papers; and a paper doilie from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by!

D-lish Scraps and Life in Details!

There is a new Challenge blog called Life in Details! It is a challenge blog for those documenting their life using either pocket page scrapbooking (like Project life) or SMASH* books. They run monthly challenges with some awesome prize sponsors, and heaps of fabulous inspiration!

The challenge for October is to use this sketch. The SMASH*ers can use it as a page sketch and the PL'ers can use the sketch on one of their cards.

Here is my inspiration page. I did find the washi/paper strips a bit hard to work with initially but I think this works and I always love to challenge myself!

I've used a heap of fun embellishments from D-lish Scraps on this page, specifically cabachon resin flowers, crocheted flowers, bitty blooms, pick-n-place bows, freckled fawn wood veneer and dew drops, shipping tags, paper doilie, cotton twine, washi tape and mini sequins.

Thanks so much for stopping by
