Try it on Tuesday - Pretty papers

 Hi everyone!  Today at Try it on Tuesday, we have a new challenge up for the next couple of weeks...

"Pretty Papers"

 I usually do mixed media backgrounds, and thought I would change things up a bit. I use to scrapbook ages ago, and have quite the stash, so I am getting back into it again, and thought, why not make a scrapbook layout!  So I used some of my favourite papers I have in my stash, some embellishments, and a photo of me many, many, many years ago! Over 60, but whatever! LOL!




I do hope you join us and share your pretty papers with us! Don't forget to check out what the amazing design team have done for this challenge!

Try it on Tuesday - Going round in Circles

 Good morning all! Today at Try it on Tuesday, we will have you 

"Going round in Circles' 




I painted the background black, then used a large dotted bubble wrap that I roll white onto, then squished it down on the black. There was a bit of blue and red from another project on my bubble wrap but I liked the hint of colour popping through.  Added some white circles using a white writ out pen and circle washi for my little gal! 

Hope you can join us for this challenge that ends in 2 weeks and check out what the amazing design team have done for this!
