 Good morning everyone.

I'm still suffering from Down the Rabbit Hole retreat hangover!   

An absolutely fabulous weekend.   So looking forward to the next one.

Here's another take on this month's mood board

 I started with a Waste Not page with lots of Dylusions inks, stamped the title with Art By Marlene Creative Alphabet in Dina Wakley paint (Ruby) Added a little stamping with Art By Marlene Boho Chic stamp in Distress ink (Mustard Seed) and then some retro plastic beads, washi, enamel dots and ribbon from my stash.

Still plenty of time to enter this month's challenge.

Cheers

And now for something comPletely different

Hello everyone, Georgia here and I am back up on the blog today using so many gorgeous paints and stencils from Dina Wakley. 

All the DW paints and stencils can be found on the Scrappingclearly website, Kylie has an enormous range to purchase from. This image is from the AALL & Create stamps which was used from my stash, it also has a great title stamp in this set too. 

I love creating backgrounds by layering colours and stencils to complete my page. I coloured my image using watercolours then fussy cut him. This was a fitting image to go with this month's mood board representing a vintage circus and a whimsical fun page. Love how this page turned out and I hope you get inspired to create this month using the mood board.

She drew new lines

Hi everyone, welcome back to the SC blog. Today I am sharing a simple journal page in my ABM journal that can be found on the SC website.

I always gesso my pages as it helps the next layers of colours to pop on my page. Stencil used is the DW Triangle Fence to create some bold line work and to keep the colour theme for this months mood board. Dina Wakley paints are so easy to use to create background layers.

I completed this journal page with a quote on tissued paper adhered with some DW Gel Medium and a tissue printed LF image that I had in my stash.

Thanks for stopping by.
