October Challenge

 Well, here we are again with another month of scrapping.

We are sponsored kindly by Mystical scrapbooking.

Donna has closed her business but there are still bargains to be found here.

Mystical Scrapbooks | Channel your inner artist...

Our picture is this

Ignore the horse. Your challenge is to use lots of little photos.

Put your entries in this album on Facebook 

Here's some examples of mine. 

Wedding proofs are a good idea if you have them

or if you have small photos not large enough to use on a layout on their own, use a filmstrip or grid idea.

Let's see what the team have done

September challenge

 Our challenge for September is based on this picture.

It is Use lots of layers -use those scraps!

It always feels good to use smaller pieces of left over papers etc to create a stack of mats behind a photo or interesting textures on a card.
