MEXICO {DT work for FWAB}

hello scrappy friends!

this month i'm hosting the scrappy challenge at FLOURISH WITH A BLING

 “add a memory file/storage pocket to your page”

 with August being the month of the summer holidays i figured this will be the perfect challenge for september. I know everybody came home with a lot of cards, tickets and other travel memorabilia to preserve, so create an amazing layout about your journey {for example} and store them!

here is some inspiration from me:


i used TIM HOLTZ and FWAB products on this layout. 

the paper is from TIM HOLTZ "travel destinations" paper pad. i added two storage pockets/memory files to my layout and one flip for extra pictures. 


for the post cards i used my picture and TIM HOLTZ' craft postcards. i distressed the edges of the picture and shapes the card with decorative scissors.


i used the crafter's workshop "tile texture" mask with modeling paste to add extra dimension to the background. then i cut the my embellishments from cardboard using TIM HOLTZ alterations "hardware findings" die. i coloured the cardboard with graphite and added crackle paint to achieve the weathered look.


the car is cut with TIM HOLTZ alterations "old jalopy" die. i coloured it, added crackle paint and embellished it with the gear wheel and the brad.


i made the memory files from craft cardstock and pattern paper. i used TIM HOLTZ idea-ology "file tabs" for the file tabs:-)


the road sign i cut from a pictures i took in MEXICO. i'm usually taking so many pictures of different buildings, road signs, etc. without us on them {as my mother calls them "postcards"} and then they end up stored on a server never to be printed. so i thought this is a good way to use at least some of them. 


the amazing flourish is from FLOURISH WITH A BLING - the new ELISE flourish and flower set
i used ELISE flourish black for the swirl and the grey flower and ELISE flourish antique brown for the brown flower. 


i used TIM HOLTZ idea-ology "chitchat word stickers" for my sub-title.


and idea-ology "salvage stickers destination" for my title.


if you wish to see more of the amazing layout our design team created, visit FWAB blog.

you've got until until september 30, 2012 midnight to upload your creations in the GALLERY.

i hope you will join me in this challenge!

have a scrappy day!

hugs 'n smiles,
Emmy
