Here's our picture for this month. It is from a building in Chicago,USA called the Belle Shore apartment block. Very much Art Deco.

Your challenge this month is to include both squares and roses.

Here's a card to get you started that I found on Pinterest.

We are kindly sponsored this month by Sharon Bishop. She has put together a suitable pack

Pen and ink drawing done by my mom when she was in high school. I cut out a picture of her at that time. I cut this out of a larger piece of paper which had been discolored and damaged. You can still see some of the damage on the cut out pieces if you look closely. I kept her signature intact at the bottom. There are subtle squares in the green background paper.

Batik. Background pp has roses and small white Kaisercraft roses too.

Well that's it for another month. We look forward to seeing your productions.

Our winner for January was  Theresa Kemp

January 2022 Challenge

 For our JANUARY CHALLENGE I've chosen an elegant long hallway from Elle Design.

Can you imagine living there? Wouldn't it be lovely?

Your criteria this month is to use SILVER AND GOLD.

Here's a chance to whip out those metallic elements you've been saving and if you are like me, slightly frightened to use. 

Maybe there's a special occasion coming up you need a card for or maybe you have wedding photos that need to be scrapped. 

I've seen silver and gold corrugated cardstock and shiny papers out there in stores.

Here's the link to enter on Facebook. Facebook

Our ladies have put their thinking caps on and come up with some good ideas.

Our winner for December is Heather Bensley

December Challenge

 Our challenge this month is inspired by this  Futuro House. 

Where are Futuro houses located in Australia? | Herald Sun. While it isn't exactly architecture, it is something to live in.

Either do something about space or use the word " future " on your item.

As yet we have no sponsor but a package of scrapbook items will be given to the winner.

Our winner for November is Sharon Bishop and may I say, it is lovely to see so many entries.

The Design Team have been busy whipping up examples for you.

We hope these jog an idea or two for you. A card saying best wishes for your future will be a simple way to enter this. Perhaps you have something more specific. 

November challenge

 

The November challenge was inspired by the floor of this cathedral. This is Notre Dame in Paris (before the fire obviously). I was lucky enough to go there and it was truly remarkable.

We want you to USE GINGHAM (or a small check pattern) on your creations!

We are sponsored this month by Craft Queen. Please support her if you can.

Our winner for October is Maureen

October Challenge

 For out theme this month we are using a sketch instead of a picture

It was the December 2014 sketch from "Stick it Down". Stick it Down: Tuesday Sketch Challenge

The sketch was designed by Brenshevia . 

I tried to contact her, but with no answer so I'm hoping it will be okay to use it.

Our winner for last month was Debra Beer

We are sponsored this month by Autumn Lane who make the most adorable scrapbooking flowers.

Autumn Lane – Paper Crafts

The Design Team have done a fantastic job as usual to inspire you.
