Scrap Africa Challenge no.33 - Travel Adventures

Morning Everyone

Hey, Hey it's Friday!!!! ;-)

There's a super challenge up on the Scrap Africa blog and it's about Travel Adventures.

Challenge: Tell us about your travel adventures...perhaps your favourite location, or the most memorable trip...anything related to travel. Please include journalling, even if hidden and tell us where it is.

Here are some quotes that you could possibly use as inspiration.

It would super if you could play along!

We have 2 amazing Guest Designers, Galina Sazanova and Nupur Patel...

so please pop over....their work is amazing.

Here's my take on it.

This page is of our adventures in Austria, 2 years ago. Joe just loved every minute of it.

Above is a close-up of the journalling saying this: We had the absolutely best time in Austria! We so loved the outdoors and spent so much time walking, exploring, swimming and just enjoying the beautiful countryside.  Joe was in his element and could not have been happier! I really hope we can visit again soon!

I used October Afternoon papers and accents.

This picture was taken on the first Sunday we arrived in Austria and there was a small beer fest in Aspang 

town, to raise money for the Emergency Services.  So they had activities for the kids and the beer fest....it really was festive! This photo of Joe was in the park where it was held....where they did some tree climbing.  Here he was waiting for his turn! ;-)

Thanks so much for popping by!

I hope you have a super day!

Stork Card - Bo Bunny Baby Bump

Hello Everyone

I am really busy creating in the background.  I have a lot of DT stuff to do, as well as some private projects. Hopefully I'll be able to share them with you soon, but for now I am sharing a Stork Card.

My sister and I went to a Stork party on Saturday and so I had to make one, and one for my sister too! LOL. So the first one I shared in the previous post and here is the other.

The BoBunny Baby Bump collection is really so beautiful! The chipboards, along with the papers, are my absolute favourite! ;-)

I have seen so many Christmas cards being posted...I am getting the Christmas creating gittters!!!! ;-)
Better get to it!

Have a super evening!

A Day to Remember - Sketchabilities #120

Hello Everyone

I really loved the new sketch up at Sketchabilities and so just had to play along! ;-)

Here's my take on it.

This is just such a special page for me, because I don't often have photo's where Joe and I are together. So I loved that we had this photo taken, even though it took HUGE amounts of persuasion for Joe to sit still and also not pull funny faces! ;-) Little boys and ants in their pants!!!!

My journalling says this: It was such a mission to get you to sit still for 2min! You loved running amock outdoors, playing and fishing! You had such a ball! Old Millstream June 2014

We had a family weekend away at Dullstroom, flyfishing, and it was just a wonderful weekend for us all! ;-)

I used one of my favourite stencils and then did some painting....which I am sooooo loving at the moment.

On the circle chipboard I also did some crackle work.

On the chipboard leaves I added some white embossing and was thrilled at the result.

A close-up of my sweet boy and me! ;-)

I will rather add a list of goodies used, as I think this is easier to make sure I list them all.

Collection - Teresa Collins Now and Then / Summer Stories

Blooms - Petaloo

Chipboard Round - Blue Fern Studios

Chipboard Leaves - Celebr8 and Enmarc

Brads - Teresa Collins

Stamps - BoBunny,Teresa Collins and Prima

Washi Tape - My Minds Eye

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a super evening!

BoBunny - Teachers Gift

Hello Everyone

I am up on the BoBunny blog today with a shadow box for a Teachers Gift.

I decided on a shadow box, because I thought it would be really nice to have something that a teacher could hang on the wall and "look to" for some encouragement and inspiration at times.

I used the fun and cool Pop Quiz collection.

I double embossed the Kraft wood apple and just love how it came out! It really does pop off that white background.

I love this sentiment and really hope that teachers everywhere would remember why they love what they do and also remember that they really do have such a big influence on our children's lives.

The embossed chipboard corners came out really great too! After being double embossed, the blue had a nice texture to it. So that was certainly an added bonus.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
I love and appreciate your visits!
Have a super evening!

If you have clicked on one of my creations and smiled then I consider my work a success! My name is Chantal and I live in beautiful Adelaide, South Australia. I began scrapbooking 5 years ago and since then I've never looked back. I've always loved art (particularly cartooning) and through scrapbooking, this passion has been dusted off and reignited tenfold! Yay! I would describe my scrapbooking style as fun, funky, colourful and whimsical. I love to inject lots of personality into my work and I really enjoy bringing memories to life through creativity.

I'm very fortunate and blessed to be a 2014 Scrapbooking Memories Master, and to have my work published regularly in scrapbooking magazines in Australia and worldwide. Plus now I'm also having so much fun designing and making my own scrapbooking embellishments - so that you can enjoy crafting and creating with a lovely collection of cute bits and pieces to play with too! If you see something you like, but would like a larger quantity, please feel free to convo me. I'm also always happy to make up custom orders.

Have lots of fun looking around and thank YOU for considering byChantalVandenberg! :)

A special thanks to Creative Embellishments and Chantal Vandenberg for sponsoring our design team this month!
