Sweet & Sour


This was done for CHallenge #2 at Scraptivity, for the Scrap Around the World in 80 Days. We visited Morrocco and the challenge was to use the rich deep colors of the spices.

I used May's kit from Scraptivity for the paper, added some Maya Road scroll chipboard to accent the wheat in the photo, and some buttons, inks, and distress stickles.

Scrapping while watching AI

In a photo class last year we were practising depth of field, I shot this picture inside a dark room trying to practice. I loved it, even though the teacher bashed it in front of everyone.

The MY SPOT layout is for a challenge over at Scrap Whispers for this week. My friend from OZ, Jenny, took the photos when she came to visit me.



Last night was the season finale of AI and Criminal Minds, what better thing to do than scrap.
