Scrap Africa Mood Board Challenge no.73

Hello Everyone

Welcome to our mood board challenge for April! ;-)

You can create a card, tag, layout, an altered project, journal pages or even a digital project!

You can create whatever you like! ;-)

We would just love to know what inspired you from the mood board and the sentiment behind your project!;-)

We have 2 amazing Special Guest Designers for our challenge today!

Firstly, is a really amazing creator and her styling is just divine!

Welcome Lisa Griffith!!

Hello! My name is Lisa Griffith and I live in the United States with my husband and my eight year old son, Liam. I have been scrapbooking since my son was born but it has become a real passion for me since discovering mixed media several years ago. You can find me most Saturday mornings at estates sales, looking for vintage treasures that I like to incorporate into my work….bits of tattered lace, buttons, vintage photographs, beautiful old magazines….My style varies with the themes I choose and I love to add a lot of texture with masks and paints. I love antiques and anything vintage so the invitation for this challenge was really enjoyable to me! Currently I design for Blue Fern Studios, The Scrapbook Diaries and Pion Design. I would love for you to visit me at www.thepaperattic.blogspot.com. Thank you Scrap Africa for having me!
