Creativity Boot Camp - Day 9

I am so disappointed with today's photo. Our daily prompt was drizzle with the miserable day we had weather wise yesterday it would have been easy to get a photo of drizzle. Today, not so much! Grrr. I thought I would take a picture of the golden syrup being drizzled into the Rocky Road I was making this evening. Great, I took about 24 pictures, not easy trying to drizzle with one hand and take the picture with another. The best of the bunch was this one.
I'm afraid I can't take anymore photos the cake is done, so with slight embarrassment I'm posting it. I don't want to miss any of the days challenges this far into the boot camp. I'll just have to claim an 'off' day.
For my crafty friends, I have made some more dahlia's for friends (whether they want them or not!). I think I've got it now.

End of Summer Blog Hop

Hello to all you UK Scrappers blog hoppers, hopefully you have arrived from Ifa's blog, I have been a fan of Ifa's clean scrapbooking style, how lovely is that layout.  Well the project I made is another take on what you can do with the vines I featured on the last blog hop. Often you see these things and think 'well they are lovely but what will I do with it'. Scrapbooking supplies are not just for scrapbooking.  I bought a bargain frame from a 'cheap' shop and wanted to add a bit of va va voom to it.I thought it was wood so was going to paint and crackle it,, turning it shabby and planned to give it a vintagey theme. Well that went out the window when I realised it was plastic.   Plan B then, I painted it with Gesso to give it a bit of 'tooth' so that whatever I did would grip. I followed this with a couple of coats of cream paint and sanded the edges. This was followed with a sheet of 12x12 cut down to the same size as each panel and glued ...

You are Here

I have had quite a productive few weeks on the scrapbooking front, there is nothing like a retreat followed closely by national Scrapbooking Day and a few challenges that get your creativity going. I mentioned previously that I was going to Scrapstars and as usual it didn't fail to deliver, it was great to meet up and catch up with everybody. Tracee Provis was one of the teachers, she is such fun and this was one of the layouts she taught.  I loved the fun colours and it was a great opportunity for me to scrap a photo from 37 years ago and my first girls holiday to Jersey. It was also my best friends birthday this week and a milestone birthday deserves a special card. She loves cakes, her garden and bling, luckily I got all of them onto her card.
