"audition" by Edleen

I was inspired to use glimmer mist for my layout.

Feli says:
A cute page to document! And what a cool effect the glimmer mist created on the background...

Love the shapes created by the glimmer mist on the background! These are such fun photos! :)

"Lady" by Georgina

Description:
I thought and thought about this challenge for weeks. I kept thinking of the Teddy Bear's beautiful gorgeous eye lashes and it brought the idea of feathers. Some models use pretty feathers to decorate their eyelashes on the runway and so the feathers in my layout at the bottom of the photo.

Feli says:
Such a gorgeous layout! I love how the graphic inspired her to use feathers! I especially love the feel of the layout and the colours.. awesome!

Love is Everything...

Here's my take on the Graphic Inspired Challenge 3... I was inspired by the composition of the image so I made my page flow the same way...
I used Magistical Memories Winter Solstice Open Add-on chipboard as a matt for the photo.. Added some buttons to embellish the chipboard and photo... Yeah! I can submit this for Pile It On Challenge 4! =)

The chipboard was dabbered on and inked to create texture...

Did some stamping and embellishing with flowers, robin's nest dewdrops and American Crafts adhesive badges..

My mum knitted this flower for me.. =) I'm loving the white space!

FeliScraps to HappyScraps

I have recently co-founded a design collective known as HAPPY which purpose is to produce ideas and things that make people inspiredly happy. And, as you know, scrapbooking makes me really happy! That is why, I have made it one of the key component of this design collective. With that, I am pleased to announce that come August 2009, FeliScraps Challenge will be refreshed and become part of the HAPPY setup!

There will be no change to the format and rules of the challenge but you can definitely expect it to get even better! By making it part of the HAPPY family, I hope to tap onto more resources and open up new possibilities. I also hope the challenge will attract even more talented scrappers and ultimately, all of us will see more unique creations produced from the challenges!

In order to achieve a consistent branding for HAPPY, FeliScraps Challenge will be renamed HappyScraps and will reside at a new domain, http://happyscraps.ifyouarehappyandyouknow.com/. The transition will be gradual, with old contents being ported over to the new website. I will be posting sneak peeks of this new website and its features both on my blog and the HAPPY website so stay tuned!

Entries for Stash Inspired Challenge 3 - All about Words...

Here's the stash to for Stash Inspired Challenge 3... The challenge is to use your stash with words / alphas to inspire you to create a layout/project...

Here are the entries we received...

"Crop Buddies"by June

Description:
When I looked for some word inspired papers to create my LO, this piece just called out to me. I love how the words are part of the pattern on the paper but are not too obvious unless you look really closely at the paper. I kept the embellishments to a minimal so as not to distract from the words and alphas in the layout.

Feli says:
Love especially her focus on the photo! The words stash just come together on her page...

"creative, love, photography" by Ee Bing

Description:
I was inspired by Ingvild Bolme's layout. I love her work!! I used La creme papers as the base and tore up and crumpled the words pp, did some inking then stitching with twine. Made use of vibrant colorful flowers to bring out the photo and classic black alphas as title. Even the alphas for "Love" have words on them! Totally match my pp. :) I just love the rustic feel of the background against the colorful flowers!

Feli says:
I love the tearing and inking on the page! The embellies on the page just flows!

"hammock time" by Edleen

Description:
I just *heart* papers with any text or script! This just suits one of our Road Trip layouts where my kids were having a relaxing time. Seeing their Happy Faces on these photos just says it all.

Feli says:
She did great with the PPs with words! They go so well with the photos of her kids... They sure were happy!

"memories, joy & happiness" by Georgina

Description:
I always love words so any pattern paper with words always attracts me. I created this layout first without a photo coz the pp and the embellishment came together so easily. The final touch was the photo that I thought goes so well with the overall colour combinations and feeling.

Feli says:
I love her words PP! And the way she arranged the words sticker on the photo... =)

"Time Flys by" by Tessah

Description:
I have accumulated a lot of stash with alphas on them. So I used some of them here... So nice how I managed to journal using different stuff from my stash.

Feli says:
I love the bright page!! And I especially love how she used the words stickers to form her journaling and the bulk of her page!!

"Ever the Best of Friends" by Maya

Description:
As you can see I love PP with words too!! I got quite a handful of rub-ons. I stamped some words on the flowers... This picture was taken on my solemnization (nikah) with one of my best, true friends I ever have she's also a family to me..

Feli says:
I can see how much she loves stash with words!! Love her variety of words! and that's a really lovely photo...
