Last months issue of Scrapbooking Memories included my first OTP project publication. I was super excited to see basically two pages with pics/instructions of my project. Definitely a 'whohoo' moment for me!

Here's some terrible iPhone shots of the mag the night I recieved it!

Scrap Around The World

I've been working on my Masters challenges the last few weeks so haven't done much other scrapping. I did manage the below layout for the August Scrap Around The World Challenge (check it out here: http://scraparoundtheworld.blogspot.com.au/2014/08/august-2014-challenge-16-elegant.html?m=1 )

The moodboard:

At first I wasn't sure what to do with this moodboard but I adored the top left picture, with the beautiful long, flowing, turquoise dress so I decided to start with some watercolours to create a similar effect on my page. Next I added in some cork elements as inspired by the cork board on the top right. The middle picture on the bottom row reminded me that I had some blue feathers in my stash so I quickly added that in, plus some gold accents to suit the general moodboard theme. (Oh and a handcut flowing title, no cutting machine here!)

In the end, whilst it took me a minute to decide my direction with this challenge I ended up loving this moodboard as it was so incredibly versatile yet inspiring at the same time!

Until next time
