"Favorite" - by Arnlaug Koppang

Hi you all!

Today I really want to show of one of the cutest Purple Pumpkin buttons ever! Just look at that teddybear<3 

Unfortunately I don't have any close ups for you, but it's hard not to spot it;-)

I also used some washi tape and black motex tape. 


Thanks for looking:-)

Motex Magic...with Lizzy Hill

...or so it seems to me! Lizzy with you today sharing my DT page from Once Upon A...Sketch this month. I really, REALLY love my Motex writer. Now, I know some peeps have issues with it sticking down - but I've found using some Glitter Art or Helmar glue works a treat!
Nothing like doing a boy page for a change!
 My Motex 'wheel' doesn't have an apostrophe on it - but this little raised icon works just as well:)
I've also used a lovely PP spotty button. It WAS black & white--- but I needed it to be blue & white. Simple! I just used some Distress ink to change the colour!
Hope these couple of hints help you make the most of your stash:)
Happy Scrapping ~ Lizzy ♥♥♥

"In the middle of the night" - by Arnlaug Koppang

This page is made for the first challenge at the "new" Color room. The color room are merging with Scrap for Help, and we will incorporate a household item to use with the Palette, making the challenge even more fun, creative and 'green', using some of the throw away items in our crafting.  In the future we will incorporate Cynthia's vision of helping the community, to raise money here and there for worthy charities across the Globe, which we plan to do periodically.  So watch out for that too!!!







This page is made by adding molding paste, mists and then gesso. 
As Junkmail I've used some stamps and also a luggage tag from the vacation I've scrapped:-)

On this page I've used one of my super cute elephant buttons and a ticket from Purple Pumpkin.

hello...helloooo.....

Today I would like to share with you a couple of layouts I have completed for a few challenges.

The first layout is a layout for 123 Challenge.

COLOUR: PASTELS * WORD: DREAM * TECHNIQUE:FRAMES


This layout is so different to my scrapping style- so it was defiantly a challenge!!LOL
I used a some tickets and a spotty button which I cut in half instead of wasting 1 half under a photo.

Here are a few close ups:


My next layout is for Scrap the Girls

I haven't played along here for a while

BUT

who could resist doing a challenge with doileys and hearts !!!! I thought Purple Pumpkin doileys were perfect for this challenge.


I have used a spooty button again and a fabric button with icecreams which I thought went really well with the theme of my layout.

Here are a couple of close ups:


Well I can't believe its nearly April already!! This year is going very quickly.
Hope you have been inspired to scrap and I do hope you can join in with this months sketch designed by myself- there is still time to enter!!

Thanks for stopping by

Eat layout by Yvonne Yam


Hello there. It's Yvonne here to share a layout about food. My family went on an eating vacation in Taiwan last year where we ate lots of yummy food. Even though they didn't appear to be at first. *winks*


I love using the effect of torn washi tape from the Purple Pumpkin store. It adds a pop of colour as well as texture. :)

Shine - by Monique Liedtke

Today and tomorrow Jenni Bowlin Studio is hosting an online crop with lots of fun challenges.  And because I have a subscription to their kits and their March kit just arrived, I decided to put it to good use straight away!! One of the challenges was to create a page using cotton thread and paint ... well, I can do that!!

So here's what I made, a page about my lovely daughter.


What I love about Purple Pumpkin's goodies is that they coordinate with so many of the products I use. On this page I've used PP stars washi tape, tickets and twine.



Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you back soon!

Hugs,
Monique

Forever - by Monique Liedtke

Hello Purple Pumpkin fans!

For today I've got a layout to share I created when I had a crop with friends last week. I used Doodlebug's "Sweetheart" collection and a "selfie" of my Cocker Spaniel and me.


I love how many of Purple Pumpkin's goodies coordinate with this collection. Take for example the fabric button with the pink elephant. Isn't it super cute? Okay, so it's not a dog, but it comes close, right?


Or the pink twine and the red washi tape with hearts, they've got the perfect colors for this page!


Thank you so much for stopping by Purple Pumpkin's blog today! Hope I've inspired you a little today :) !

Hugs,
Monique
