Spring awakening

It's Scrapathon this month at Gingerscraps. Goal is to make as many challenges as you can and to comment and leave love, at as many pages as you can. There are a lot of prices to win. When you complete 20 challenges you get this wonderful Mega collab for free. It's called Spring awakening.

Lucious Lavender

Do you like purple? If you do than you have to buy Lucious Lavender by Kristmess Designs. Of course is this bundle perfect for all photos of those lovely french lavender fields, but you can match so much more with purple.

For my first page I used a template by Scrapbookcrazy Creations. I made this for the challenge at Gingerscraps. My second page is only with use of the bundle.

 

Leaves falling, Autumn calling

If you like challenges, head over to Gingerscraps.net. Every month there are more than 30 challenges to show your creativity.

When you complete 10 challenges you get this wonderful collection for free!

 

Fall festival

Fall festival is a Gingerbread Ladies collab and free when you complete 10 challenges this month. There are about 30 challenges every month, so that can't be the problem, enough to choose from.

I made this page with it.

Take a little time

Take a little time is the challenge reward for May at Gingerscraps. This collection is really gorgeous. So I would say head over to the challenges and go make 10 of them, there are about 30 challenges in total, lots to choose from.

I also used a template by Dagilicious, Bits of may. Also see my previous post. They are gorgeous too! 

Template challenge

I love template challenges. Luckily for me there are two template challenges each month at Gingerscraps. This is a template by LDrag Designs. I filled it with the Daily download for April. It is called Little moments by Miss Fish.

 

Soup!

The daily download march is called "When life gives you lemons" by North meets South Studio's. A collab between Connie Prince and Trixie Scraps. I made this page for the Designer spotlight challenge. I also used a template by Neia Scraps; Beautiful Duo Vol. 1. The kit is full of lemons but my page is all about soup, strange? When you read my journaling it all makes sense!

 

Natural Bridges

I made this layout for the font challenge at Gingerscraps. Font used for the title is Margherita. I also used Roadtrip by BoomersGirl, my designer partner for this month.

Because of the Scrapathon this month at Gingerscraps I try to make 20 challenges. I have time till the 31st of March, this is number 13, so still 7 to go.

Oregon

It is already more than two years ago that we travelled to the west coast of the USA. Still memories are so close that it seems like yesterday. A vacation never to forget. 

I made this page for the template challenge at Gingerscraps. The template is by LDrag Designs. I also used Roadtrip by BoomersGirl Designs. BoomersGirl is my second designer partner this month. Roadtrip is her latest collection!

Possibilities

Karen Schulz is one of my favorite designers, I already have a lot of her collections. Her latest collection is a collaboration with Linda Cumberland and is called Possibilities. This collection is available at Gingerscraps and OScraps.

I love her collections because they are so complete, with borders, word art, lots of foliage and flowers.

I made two pages, one for my CT duties and one for the template challenge at Gingerscraps.

Mistletoe Christmas

We do not celebrate Christmas much. We do have a Christmas tree and we eat more luxurious, but that is it. Our family is very small so no family gatherings either. Just the two of us. As scrapping concerns I will be glad the December month is over, all those Christmas kits to work with, pffff......

For the recipe challenge at Gingerscraps I chose from the Fresh baked Mistletoe Christmas by Memory Mosaic (because she is my designer partner this month). I love the color combination with purple. photo is from Pixabay.

Gingerbread Christmas

Spend $10 or more and you will get this collection for free. It is called Gingerbread Christmas, a Gingerbread ladies collab. It is packed with all kinds of Christmas / winter papers and elements and of course a lot of gingerbread cookies!

I used this collection for the template challenge at Gingerscraps. The template is by Meg Scott Studio. The photos are made by my father in 1959. I was almost 5 years old. Am I cute or what?

Another template challenge

In the past the template challenges at Gingerscrap were posted on the first and half way the month. It happened more than often that the second one was forgotten. Now they post them both at the first. I like template challenges so of all challenges I make this one first,

I chose Little monsters by Heartmade Scrapbook, because she is my DP for this month. The template is provided by Meg Scott Studio.

Template challenge

The first template at Gingerscrap this month is by Scrapbook Crazy by Robyn. I filled it with photos taken at the Screech Owl Sanctuary in Cornwall. The kit I used is the DSD Grab bag Bountifall by Aimee Harrison. 

 

Recipe challenge may

 Challenges are fun! Every new month I first check out the challenges. The first two challenges I always make are the Signature challenge and the template challenge. For this month I've finished them already. Today I did the recipe challenge, also a favorite.

We had to use a messy paper and a Journal card. In the kit I chose both were not available. So I had to make them myself. Pretty good as I may say so.

The kit I used was a Gingerbread ladies collab, In the Springtime.

The goose was really agressive, I was glad he (or she) was behind a fence!

Progressive scrap

 This morning I finished the progressive scrap at Just Art. I love this challenge that takes 5 days to complete. You never know what the next step will be.

This Month the challenge was hosted by Karen (aka Pekarokiki). I must say that my page turned out very well. I used a photo taken in Norway in 1998. It shows the "Bryggen" or Trade houses at the kay of Bergen. Bergen is sometimes called "Seattle of Europe" because of the many rainfall they have.

Hello January

When you are a member of the Dandelion Dust Designs Facebook fangroup you monthly can win prizes by competing in all different challenges.  

Dandelion Dust Facebook fangroup

For January you can also win the MOJO January 2021 collection. Here is my layout using this collection. The template I used is by Sweet Shoppe Designs.

Love to decorate

 This month's second template challenge is hosted by PrelestnayaP Designs at Gingerscraps. I also love her templates, that are often with masks.

For this challenge I used Deck the halls by Dandelion Dust Designs. I also used two gold styles by Sahin Designs. If you are ever looking for great styles, go tho the Pixelscrapper site. Sahin has more than 90 beuatiful styles.

The word art I created myself.

Winter forest

 A new month, new challenges! I always start with the template challenges, I just love them. The first template at Gingerscraps is by Tinci. She makes the best templates!

I filled this one with Winter whispers by Alexis Design Studio. The photo of the robin is from Pixabay and the photo of the deer is my own. On my last walk through the woods, she suddenly was there. No rush making photos quick, it looked like she was posing for me!

Party time

 A fun kit for birthdays and other festivities. The latest collection by Kristmess Designs is called Party time and available at Gingerscraps.

Just love these monkies. 

I made this page for the template challenge at Gingerscraps. The template is by JB Studio and I just love it. All those layers of papers and clusters, awesome. The photo I used is my little nephew Mirii made on his third Birthday. Just can't believe he is seven already.
