"splash and play" - by Arnlaug Koppang

Happy saturday everybody! Altough it's winter here in Norway I'm still looking back at summer:-)

This time I'm inspired at the latest case file over at CSI, love the palette! I've used distress ink on the background and around the edges, and just layered various papers and embellishments.

This button is just perfect for this summer page!

And theese wooden strawberries are just so cute!

 Thanks for looking and enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Favourite teacher by Judith

Good morning Purple Pumpkin fans. Today I have a layout to share based on the first sketch this month at Stuck Sketches. This is a layout about my daughters favourite teacher at primary school. with photos taken in Prep and on her last day of primary school.

And some close ups of the Purple Pumpkin goodies used - a yellow crocheted doily, a blue star button and a small fabric apple button.

Here I used an XL Alphabet fabric button.

Thanks for looking.

Don't forget to give our sketch challenge a go this month.
