1 Bucket, 1 Spade.....

..thats all you need really when you are 10 months old and you go on holiday to the sea side.  Its fun to play on the beach and knock down sand castles.  Photo of Liam taken in Wales 9 years ago:

 

This is LO number 8 made from the Summer Lovin' kit.  I am entering this in to this months challenge over at Studio Challenges where they have challenged us to to make a LO using numbers.  I am also entering this LO in to this months challenge at The Cupboard Trilogy as I have used bright colours, buttons and die cuts.

Happy Together

This months challenge at the The Cupboard Trilogy is to use embossing.  This is my LO with embossed chevrons and ink circles and splashes made with Studio Calico's January 2012 County Fair kit :

Here are  couple of close ups:

The challenge is split in to 3 sections and these include digi scrapping, paper scrapping and cards.  Pop on over and take up the challenge.

Say Cheese

There is a new challenge site started this month called The Cupboard Trilogy.  Their first challenge is based on this colour pallette:

Sage Green, Peppermint, Soft Coral, Warm Beige, Warm Pink & Raspberry.

 The challenge was to use at least 3 of these colours in your LO.  I have used the peppermint, warm beige, warm pink and a splash of raspberry. 

Made using the second Dear Lizzie release and some Studio Calico wooden hearts and washi tape from Amy Tangerine (people), a Studio Calico kit (peppermint) and I'm not sure where the raspberry one was from.

Each month there will be a new challenge set on the 1st and you have until 6pm on the last day of the month to enter.  Then comes the twist; there are 3 categories - a card challenge, a scapbook challenge and a digi challenge.  You can enter each catorgory every month.  I think it will be interesting to see of the different mediums interpret the same challenge.

Be sure to head on over and take a look at the blog as there are some lovely DT work and entrants work already entered.
