This is the start of an inspiration patch, where I hope that fellow scrappers and creators will come and find some inspiration, or even leave some inspiration for me.

Scrap Africa Challenge no.30

Morning Everyone

I am back from my scrappy weekend and it was a blast! It was really nice to meet so many new people and also have a chance to share some of my scrappy styles with the class.

We had a class of 60 ladies...and believe me, it was quite a task to get round to everybody and also answer all the questions.  Luckily I had Wilna Cremer to help me and so we were able to "hopefully" get round to everybody.

I think we were also really lucky, in that, we had a lovely group of ladies and they were actually quite easy. No difficult ladies at all! ;-). So thanks to Cathy van Vollenstee...it was a super weekend!

I was absolutely shattered when I got home last night...but all for the good! ;-)

Scrap Africa has a new challenge up and hopefully you will join us.  It's a Scrap Your Stash challenge....and I KNOW that you ladies all have a stash....so come and play along!

I created this card, using one of the first collections I ever bought....Basic Grey Sweet Threads.


I did a lot if distressing and watercolouring and used rub-ons and chippies. Hopefully a new fresh, vintage look to some old goodies.


I really hope you will join us....

Thank so much for stopping by!
Have a super day!

  3. Glad to hear the weekend went well, even though you were shattered by the end of it. That's a huge crowed to manage. Your card is a delight Denise - the stash may be old but looks fresh and pretty with a a few pretty embellies. Loved this challenge :D

  7. Denise I'm in love with this card! The flowers are beautiful and I still love Basic Grey but I haven't used any of their papers for ages. Your water colouring is wonderful too. xx
