Scrap your crap! April challenge

Good morning all, 

It's time for a new challenge at Scrap Your Crap!

The challenge for this month is to use PAPER ONLY:

This time i made a card, with lots of scrap paper from my "scrap paper left over box". 

I think everybody has this box? After finishing a layout or card we dump it in to this box, and it is all piling up waiting to be used. 

First i made a woven paper mat and i started rolling the ends....i had no clue where i was going with this. So i started to cut out the paper flowers, and making the rolled flowers.  Than i decided to make the dress, all very very random but i came to this ending result. All paper used is from maja design. 

On this picture you can see the rolled ends.

 Everything is layered, and according to the challenge PAPER ONLY! and scissors and glue.

So you have one month to come up with a layout or card and load it up in the comment 

section for this post on Scrap your crap.

Good luck, Thanks for stopping by and have a good day, 

Channa

Stickers, stickers.....Get creative

Good morning all, 

Today's card challenge at Get creative is making a card using stickers. 

This is another thing that i have a whole box full off, but hardly use! 

This was my take on this challenge:

I know, i did not use too many stickers, but when i saw the silhouette sticker of the little girl i got the idea to combine it with the embossed tree. And than i looked at the little boy, and i had to use him in some way....so i made to cards that belong together. 

 

I know they are very minimal but i think they turned out really cute.

Right? 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day,

" Bumba" FD Sketch #38

Good morning all, 

It's time for a new sketch at Frosted Designs!

Have you seen the new look? it looks amazing and very tasty....

First let me introduce you to BUMBA, i believe this is more of a dutch / Belgian kids character.

This is my little friend, roan dressed as bumba.  Who is Bumba? Bumba' is a programme for pre- school children about the endearing and enchanting little clown Bumba who experiences all kind of short, simple situations.Bumba is not just an unbelievably good humoured clown, he is also just a tiny bit mischievous. Inside his circus tent he performs a post of fun tricks for a group of enthusiastic children with the help of his friend Bumbalu and many of other colorful characters such as Nanadu the bear, kiwi the bird and more.Bumba series is playful fun and has great educational value.

Here is a little episode of Bumba in english.

I wanted to give you an introduction first before showing my layout. 

This is the sketch:

And this is my entry:

Some close ups, The letters are chipboard, and i stitched around the star.

I added my journaling underneath the stitching at the bottom of the layout.

And added some triangle buttons around the picture .

So get on going and add your layouts to the Frosted designs blog. 

You have two weeks to make something up. 

Good luck and thanks for stopping by, 

Channa
