Scrapbook Boutique April Blog Hop and Challenge

Hi there!  Welcome to a new blog hop and challenge at Scrapbook Boutique!

There are two ways you can enter to have a chance to win in this challenge:  you can comment on each blog participant, ending with the SBB blog, or you can create a project (either a card, scrapbook layout or off the page project) inspired by this photo.  Please check out the rules of entry, and the prizes at the Scrapbook Boutique Blog.  Of course you can participate by entering for both prizes, but remember, this challenge is only open to Australian residents.

You should have arrived here from Angela's blog.

Here is this month's inspiration picture


Don't those swirls of chocolate and sprinkles look divine?  

Here is my take on the inspiration....


After some delusional efforts at re-creating those swirls, I focussed on the fact that the cakes were layered - one cake on top of another, and decided to layer my cute critters in the same fashion.  They are from the Lawn Fawn Stamp Set, Into the Woods, and I then coloured them with Copics.  The chocolate and purple colours were included in my design, and those dainty white dots formed the background of my card.  Hearts in purple and chocolate, sprinkles on the clouds and rump of the deer and a hint of orange were also inspired by the photo.  We'd love to see what you make from this inspiration, so please share with us! 

From here you will head to  Judith's blog 

Good luck everyone!

Wow!  Where has the year gone already?  We will soon be caught up with the 'busyness' of Christmas, summer and holidays no doubt, so I'm happy to welcome you to this month's Blog Hop and Challenge at Scrapbook Boutique - let's have fun while we can! You should have arrived here from  Angela's  amazing blog but if you didn't and want to start at the beginning, just click on the SBB blog link above and start again!   Here is this month's gorgeous mood board, to inspire you!  It may be the butterflies, the colours, the designs - whatever takes your fancy!  I love using butterflies in my cards, so I was very happy with this challenge!  I was inspired by the idea of drifts of butterflies and those lovely pink colours!

Scrapbook Boutique May Blog Hop and Challenge

Welcome to another blog hop and challenge at Scrapbook Boutique - this month it is based on this amazing mood board! You should have arrived here from  Angela's  lovely blog. What a beautiful collection of images, celebrating motherhood, new babies and all things girly! I just love to make 'new baby' cards, and was inspired by the little ballet shoes and dress to embellish my card with the tulle ribbon.  I also loved the metallic letters, but thought silver was a softer option than gold with pink, so kept to the silver dots on my pattern paper, as well as the silver twine.  I created my own background with a little strip of hearts from a Lawn Fawn set called Into the Woods.  Now for a close-up, to catch that sparkle! I hope you are inspired to create something after seeing this mood board and if you do, or if you just want to join in, there are two ways you can participate in this challenge and have a chance to win a prize.  You...
