Digi stamp sample...

2011-11-02T12:02:00.005+10:00

Just wanted to show you a little sample card that I made using this digi stamp that you have the chance of winning by entering the challenge below....

* Simply colour you image in photoshop, then save as a JPEG file.

* Open a word or publisher file/page.
* Drag your saved image into the opened page - resize to what ever you like - I actually made mine a little smaller than a card size and moved it to the top right hand corner, added some birthday cheer writing along the top and bottom.
* I also added another image of the same size, a smaller image and another even smaller image in the bottom half of the page.
* Print it out on a sheet of A4 bazzil.
* Cut straight across just below the writing and fold in half......there you go a really simple card.
* To add a little more pizzaz, I cut out the other 3 images and 3D layered the large one directly over the top of the card image, then added the medium sized one on the front of the card also.
* The smaller image, I glued inside the card.
* Finally add some kindly glitz and glossy crackle accent to the digi images for a little extra sparkle and there you have a really cool, yet easy card.

So go below and check it out for your chance to win......
Take care

Hello, Hello!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! - hope it is not just a good one but a great one for you all. Best wishes for good health and happiness along the way.

Well we are kicking off the New Year with a new sketch. This month I have gone with a multi photo arrangement as I reckon we all have a few photo's that we have taken over the last little while especially with the festive and holiday season upon us.

Please use the sketch as inspiration to create a layout of your choice of size.

My take on it

I flipped it and reduced some of the design elements

And this is Julie Hill's fabulous interpretation of the sketch

Check out the forum HERE for further details

Have Fun and Happy Scrapping!!

Then came Alicia's challenge - Off with you head (what the queen says is what we work with)

September Sketch Challenge

2010-09-01T16:22:00.001+10:00

Spring Greetings Everyone and welcome to this month's sketch challenge

I've made this one a bit different and I hope you will have some fun with it.

Remember that the sketch is a starting point and you don't have to have every detail the same. Make it work for you.

Please create a layout in any size using the following sketch as inspiration.

A piece of Scrapping Outback Chippie is encouraged to be incorporated but not necessary to complete the challenge

A couple of different interpretations to inspire you all

Here is my take on it - I have layered the circle elements and included some circle photos in the arrangement.

The papers are from the gorgeous Fancy Pants 'About A Girl' collection and I have combined them with a 'besties' chippie title.

Joanne's awesome interpretation - Joanne has represented the circle elements of the sketch with cut out flowers and has layered them in a similar arrangement to the circle arrangement of the sketch behind a large photo

Joanne has used the funky Basic Grey Lime Rickey Patterned Papers and combined them with some gorgeous chippie - 'eyes are windows to the soul' title and crown

Julie's gorgeous interpretation - Julie has stayed true to the sketch orientation, replacing the circle elements with oval. Just love the touch of the pretty pink doilies peeking through. These are Sandra's gorgeous hand dyed vintage doilies that available in store. Check them out here

Please upload your creations to correct folder in the gallery by midnight 30th September 2010 to earn yourself $2.00 SO Dollars to spend in the shop. Remember for every challenge you do you get $2.00

Have Fun and Happy Scrapping

Joanne's Think Outside The Square Challenge

2010-08-02T10:37:00.000+10:00

Ok girls...In summer we are all about getting into shape. So I thought with it being winter lets get our layouts into shape. I want you to think outside of the box...

So here is my challenge to you - I want to see pages with shape - no square or rectangle (A4) pages allowed for this one. But the catch is it must also have a TAG somewhere on the page.

This is my take on the challenge and I used the Queen Bee Collection - Bee Hive to create the shape for my background with Bitter Chocolate and Petal Soft Bazzil my colours of choice.

Check out the forum for some more links to some fabbo shaped backgrounds in the Scrapping Outback store.

Please upload your gorgeous creations to the correct folder in the Gallery by Midnight 31st August 2010

August White with 1 Challenge

2010-08-02T10:12:00.001+10:00

August Greetings!!

Hope you are all as excited as I am cause this month we are doing

WHITE with RED

I just adore the colour red. It is gloriously rich, and evokes passion and for some having a red car means that it will go faster LOL!!

Here is my take on white with red: 'Little Angel'

This time I have had a play with the 'Little Angel' title

and one of the Antique Mini Frames which are so super cute.

Both pieces have been embossed with white embossing powder and the mini frame has been edged with some red ink. All embossing ingredients are available in store
The Bazzill embossed vintage vines which I have used for my base is just gorgeous. Check out this one and others available in store here

Check out our forum for rest of the details and have your gorgeous creations uploaded to the correct folder in the gallery by midnight the 31st of August

Have Fun and Happy Creating!

May Sketch Challenge

2010-05-27T11:18:00.001+10:00

Hi There Everyone,

This is May's sketch that we would like you to draw inspiration from

And this is my take on it

I have used some gorgeous chippie flourishes and Basic Grey Bittersweet papers which are available in the Scrapping Outback Store. Love, LOVE these papers; perfect for fussy cutting and the colours are so rich and decadent - remind me of cherry ripe - YUMMY!!

Refer to our forum here for the rest of the challenge criteria

April Colour Challenge

2010-04-01T19:28:00.001+10:00

Hey There Lovely People!!

This is Trudi signing in with details of this month's colour challenge which is...........

WHITE with ORANGE

The idea is to add a splash of ORANGE to White Cardstock - the 'splash' of the colour ORANGE, can be as little or as much as like as long as the 'splash' is limited to ORANGE. And remember that all hues of ORANGE can be incorporated in your creations

This is my take

I have also used a S.O chippie title 'Sour Puss' which is available in store here

Check out our Forum for the ADDITIONAL CRITERIA here

To be in the running for a $15.00 Scrapping Outback Shopping Voucher (a minimum of 5 entries for prize to be awarded) have your 12x12 Layout in the gallery by Midnight the 30th of April .. Have FUN and Happy Scrapping!!!
