Scrappy Hands Challenge 50 - Gold

Another two weeks flew by and it is time for another Scrappy Hands challenge


The theme is Gold so it was only natural to use some of the pretty papers from the Studio Gold collection by Teresa Collins.

 I used one of the gallery art postcard that I matted on a piece of matching cardstock.


I added some hand stitching with gold embroidery thread, a sentiment that I cut with Silhouette Cameo from gold vinyl and few sparking jewels.

Check the beautiful projects from other team members and share your take on the challenge with us.

Scrappy Hands Challenge 49 - Denim

Hello my dear blog readers!

So what did we have in the past 2.5 months??  In August I visited my family in Israel. In September the kids started school, we celebrated Rosh HaShanah and the last few weeks were filled with homework, college visits and all kids of other meetings and important things. My crafting time is really gone to minimum so any creative work I do makes me very happy. 

Especially when I have such cute pictures to scrap.
I found these cute Lila's selphies on my phone and I wanted to make a layout with them the second I saw them. So cute!

I decided to use them for the last Scrappy Hands challenge. The theme of the challenge is "Denim" 



I started with white and blue cardstock, 4 pictures that I printed at home and layers of 4x6 and 2x3 cards from  the Project Life Teen mini kit.

Supplies: cardstock (Recollections), cards (Becky Higgins), cork arrow and heart stickers (Freckled Fawn), tab punch (Fiskars), denim ribbon


I added few embellishments and used one of the cards as my title. The denim ribbon came from an old pair of jeans :)


I pulled out my Fiskars tab punch to make two little tabs - one for the date and another one for few words of journaling.

I invite you to stop by the blog to see what other DT members did and share your take on this challenge. I would love to see it!
