Unity {be Inspired} Challenge (Layout)

Hi again,
two post in one day is pretty unheard of for me, in fact two posts in one month is usually good going but I'm back with a second entry to the Unity {be inspired} Challenge

This time it is for the scrapbook layout sketch

I rotated the sketch as my photo was landscape.  this is a really old photo the little chunk in the picture turned 8 yesterday!

I used stamps from a couple of unity KOTM and SMAK kits, the papers used are Lawn Fawn.

Thank you for popping in

Emily

Unity {be inspired} Challenge (colour)

Hi Everyone

This is my entry into the Unity {be inspired} challenge it started as being for the card sketch but I kind of wandered off so am entering it for the colour inspiration instead.

Love these colours!

Thank you for visiting today

BOO! Surprised you Betty!

Hello all

This blog hop has been a long time coming but its finally here. There are a lot of us in blogland that LOVE Simply B Stamps but here in the UK Halloween is not something many people do properly.  We have decided to do a special hop for the one and only Betty to show her that us UK crafters can do Halloween too - well we are at least trying!

So welcome to the hop!
 

Thank you for visiting my blog if you have come from Louise your on the right tracks - if not you need to pop back to Corinne's blog and start from the beginning!!

So here are my Halloween creations:

First up is a mini book I have made to put our halloween pictures in, nothing like being prepared for a change...

 This book is based on a You Tube Video you can find here although I am not sure my book ended up quite the same as hers, I would suggest watching a couple of times as its not that clear ;)

 I have also made a couple of quick cards with some images I had coloured but did not use in the book.

Thanks for visiting my blog today and I hope this was a nice surprise Betty!  The next blog to visit is Jan and the whole blog list is below.

I have a little prize up for grabs, please leave a comment to be in with a chance of winning this fab paper pack and matching brads.  A winner will be drawn on Halloween!!!

 

 

Enjoy the rest of the hop
