White with 1 - G'day Mate

This is my layout for the August challenge at White... with 1.  It is a picture of me and my Aussie friend Ann drinking sparkling shiraz (big girl's Ribena) on our deck, having a laugh. I found it came together very quickly for me, I do love black and white!

There is some more Studio Calico paper, Prima stamp, old die cut, old Scenic Route chipboard, washi tape, lace from my mother-in-law's collection, Kaisercraft rub-on, Glitz Designs transparency and Simple Stories DIY stamps

1 2 3 Get Scrappy! August board

I have been meaning to enter into the challenges at 1 2 3 Get Scrappy! for ages as I love their tic-tac-toe boards, I think it is a brilliant challenge format.  So finally managed one this month, using the vertical centre line of bugs, grass and butterflies in my layout "Out for a walk"

I've used patterned paper from Studio Calico, Stampin' Up flowers, bingo card from Simple Stories, Prima chipboard, Pink Paislee wooden dragonfly, washi tape, doily, gesso, and a tiny lady bug off one of the girl's old charm bracelets.  It took a while for this layout as I kept fiddling with it, in the end I thought "ENOUGH" and stuck it down!
