Dandelion Dust Designs - Nov21 Mojo Mods

 The Dandelion Dust Design Mojo Mods are some of my favourite challenges to do lately. But yikes I am cutting this one soooooo close to the end of the month deadline. I also didn't get all six layouts done as I had hoped but am happy with those that I did finish.

Cut It Out

Think Big

and my Perfect Day layout for The Bottom Half challenge.

Hopefully December will be a bit easier and I'll get more done earlier in the month.



The Digital Press - Nov21 challenges

It's a jampacked month again and I've finally managed to get some time to do the six challenges at The Digital Press:

Colour challenge by Jimbo Jambo

This layout got picked as a galley standout too... super chuffed!

Tape challenge by Akizo

5, 4, 3, 2 1 Autumn by Humble & Create

Thankful For by Dunia Designs

template by Gone Digital Designs

I shared the template by ninigoesdigi earlier this month with my Jacaranda layout.

This weekend is also The Digital Press's 7th birthday and I plan on tackling the challenges for that too but seeing as there isn't much time left (all due 1st Dec) I might have to pick one or two instead of all seven! Let's see how we go... watch this space.






Gingerscraps - Nov 2021 challenges

As I said last month, this month I planned on tackling at least 5 challenges out of the 10 needed to get the free kit at Gingerscraps. That's really freed me up to pick and choose and in the end I did more than 5 as there were just so many nice challenges to choose from.

I already posted all of these as they were all made for one or other CT release as well:

Buffet - Sharing layout using TSK Family kit

Miss Fish Memory Mix Up  - Coffee layout using TSK Coffee and a Book $2 Tues

Rewards - Nature Study layout from MissFish Picture This 5 template

Life Chronicled - Gather layout with MissFish KISS Photo Strips template

Template - Game Night layout from The Scrappy Kat

Inspiration - Autumn Days layout with  kit from The Scrappy Kat

Designer - Festive layout with MissFish Holiday Travelors Notebook template

and then finally there is this one for the White Space challenge (and also for one of the DDD Mojo Mods for this month):


It's been such a busy scrapping month that I am scrambling to get my challenge layouts finished before tomorrow... wish me luck!

MissFish - Artsy Blocks Holiday Edition

Miss Fish's second bundle for the Black Friday weekend sale is this wonderful one called Artsy Blocks Holiday Edition bundle. 

I decided to scrap some of our trip to Wyndford this past weekend with these templates.

First up I chose to do my birthday celebration. The Chef at Wyndford made me my very own birthday cake for morning teatime ... yummy! We spent quite a while just relaxing in the garden and enjoying the view of the Wyndford tortoise.

Artsy Blocks Holiday Edition 1

Next I have scrapped just a few of the flowers that are in bloom in the gardens... there are roses, hollyhocks higher than my head, beautiful arums, daisies in abundance and loads more. A truly magnificent English Country Garden.
Arsty Blocks Holiday Edition 2

Next up is our rooms and of course that great view once again.
Arsty Blocks Holiday Edition 3

Throughout the weekend Aaron got his fill on puppy love... he made firm friends with all three dogs with lots of scratches and playing fetch.

Artsy Blocks Holiday Edition 4
