BELIEVE - BE YOU Scrapping Outback January 2016

  

White with a twist of silver, grey and a touch of black

HAPPY 2016!!!!!!!

 What better way to start off Scrapping Outback's 2016 and the White With a Twist challenge - than the festive, versatile theme hues of white, silver, grey and a touch of black?

 

I created the first Lay-Out "BELIEVE - Fly, Spread Your Wings" because I just adored the photo from the day my sister first added it to her FB profile...

AND because she keeps mentioning that she LOVES butterflies - as do I....I love the symbol of the butterfly and this DS (I have 4 sisters) has overcome and is still enduring many 'challenges' to become a beautiful butterfly ;)

"BELIEVE" Supplies:
Bo Bunny Enchanted papers (rose) and fairy tales glitter paper; The crafter’s Workshop template (#554 butterfly collage); Imaginarium Designs chipboard (feather);

 Lindy’s Stamp Gang (LSG) Starburst mist (frozen Jack Frost); LSG embossing powder (pinely white and silver moon sapphire); Petaloo and Prima flowers;

 Petaloo and Prima canvas and vellum butterflies;

 Prima wood icons (believe);

Texture paste; Viva crackling colour (white); Ranger liquid pearls (silver);

and here's my second inspiration:

 I've been wanting to create the LO "BE YOU" for a while but waiting for just the right challenge colours !!!   And now that this nephew ( I have a few of these too LOL) is now grown up, I think I am able to say that he is certainly unique, being himself and he knows what he wants and goes after it just like the "eye of the tiger" :)

I've had this photo of my nephew playing the role of a white tiger for a long time - and I'm very happy with the results.

 "BE YOU" Supplies: Scrapping Outback Cardstock (white) ; WOW wood veneer title (Be You) ;
Prima Marketing stencil, resin frame, wood icons and Colour À La Crèmes (black and dark grey);

The crafter’s workshop template (#454 specimen); Lindy’s Stamp Gang (LSG) Starburst mist (frozen Jack Frost); Couture Creations double sided tape  ; Versa colour ink (black) ; Petaloo and Prima flowers;

 I'm really pleased to say that I'm hoping to get more challenges done during 2016. I really love 'scrapping' and crafting - utilising my photographic memories, and others' photographs too, as my time and my way to relax and unwind.
 Until next time...I hope you all have a WONDERFUL, SAFE and healthy 2016 and beyond.   As always, thanks so much for popping over today - loads of hugs 'n' hearts  Mazz xxx
