Unmasked |
Hello there!!! I've taken up the very FIRST More Than Words Challenge!!! The
Main Challenge is based on a Word inspiration and a Creative Challenge...I've
wanted to join in this brand new challenge since it was announced last year -
and mark my words...the DT is AWESOMELY talented and from what I've seen so
far, the entries to this challenge are WAY beyond fantastic!! So, here's
the inspiration

You can choose to use the word "personality" somewhere
on your project, or simply be inspired to create from it. Plus, January's
creative challenge is to use a "selfie".
Honestly, at the moment I hate photos of myself, although I don't mind group
photos so much. This photo took a while, and it’s a bit pixelated (as am I) and
I'm doing the normal "cheeky, weird" smile lol. Oh and in
case you're wondering where my inspiration came from?? Very good
question because I'd lost my mojo for about 2 weeks this month and I didn't
even think I'd have enough time...but since this LO is "all about
ME",
I've used my favourite (not clean and
simple) "shabby" scrapping style together with a collection of old
and new embellishments that are intended to symbolise my (diverse) personality
Supplies Used: Usually I would list ALL the
products, but today I thought I'd share my favourites and also reveal that my
favourite supplies (still) come from SCRAPPING OUTBACK, my2angels scrapbooking and craft supplies
and the occasional internet site such as Mirrabooka
Scrapbooking (where I got the metal mask and silver fern from).
So without further ado I have used Marion
Smith Designs papers (Junque Gypsy collection - Carte Blanche, Shangri
La and Nota Bene); Microbeads; Dylusions Diamond border stencil; Martha Stewart
punches;
Prima
Marketing flowers, alphas, findings (bath), wooden embellishments (key to
happiness, Eiffel Tower); Kaisercraft Mist (orange); Lindy's
Stamp Gang Starburst mists (Cocklebells Coral, Mission
Bells Brown, Sea Mint Green) and Flat
Fabio (Toto's Tornado black); Couture
Creations foam mounting tape.
Most charms on this LO come from my2angels scrapbooking and include: passport, world (my love of travel),
scissors (my love of cutting paper); cook book (my love of cooking); teapot, cake
with cutlery (my love of tea and sweet food lol); house and couch (my love of being home,
watching tv with dlh); tree of life, filigrees,
butterfly (I adore the symbol of the butterfly);
I’ve placed the wooden Punga,
and Koala together representing my dual citizenship; above the bath are some Water Bubble
Cabochons representing my love of bubble baths;
The recycled zipper
represents the unzipping of my dreams, which includes time (Clock Swag die) to fulfil
all my dreams. Of course the camera representing my love of photography and stash
words representing other important stuff (to me).
There is also various stash
mesh, sticky glitter tape, Impasto gel, black archival ink, Matisse Lang Lang Sand, black gesso, Paua Shells.
Thanks SO much for looking at this long post…. I do hope you now see me
as I am, "unmasked".
Till next time hearts ‘n’ hugs Mazz
