This month, the chosen Company is OCTOBER AFTERNOON...if you have any in your stash why not come and join us?
Being that it's too hot here for my brain to do any serious work, I decided to take the easy route and use SHIMELLE'S most recent STARTING POINT
So I had a rake through my stash and found some October Afternoon 'CAMPFIRE' papers and some '5&DIME'...and here's the result. There's a mix of other stuff from my stash in there too...funny how it doesn't seem to matter how much I dip into my stash, it never seems to decrease very much (if at all!)
The layout also works for one of the Bonus Challenges over at CAMP FRIENDZY
I only have a few more pages left to do for my niece's album, and then I'll get back to scrapping some of my own pics!
Hope you've all seen even a LITTLE bit of sunshine this weekend!
Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx
This is really pretty Alison!
ReplyDeleteWow Alison Love the page x
ReplyDeleteI saw this at CF, and I thought to myself it was very "Shimelle" looking. lol, now I know why! Very lovely layout!
ReplyDeleteI love this page Alison, such pretty papers and a super take on Shimelle's starting point.
ReplyDeleteYou've done a lovely job with Shimelle's starting point challenge. It's going to be an amazing album when you're through.
ReplyDeletelovely bold papers Alison - great page x
ReplyDeleteOooh just seen your yummy new stash, is that Dear Lizzy I spy too? I like the look of that Polish company, how refreshing to find something totally new! I love what you've done with the starting point there too.
ReplyDeletelovely Alison, it seems like ages since I've scrapped!!
ReplyDeleteI love the bicycle paper and also the coloured lined paper behind it, such colour to use
ReplyDeleteThis album has been a massive project. I hope your niece likes it :-) it's amazing how different all our layouts look from the same starting point! It is hard to concentrate when it gets so hot. Right now we have just hit winter so we haven't had a great deal of sunshine. The sewing box you saw in the picture I decorated as part of her Christmas present. I used my Cricut and some vinyl. She loves it :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat page & use of the Starting Point. We had lots of sunshine this weekend.
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful LO, Alison!! How good of you to resist digging in to your yummy new paper. Not sure I would hve made it. LOL! ~ Blessings
