SCRAP AROUND THE WORLD CHALLENGE ~ SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO CHILL

Morning! hope you are all enjoying your weekend thus far. Helen Tilbury has started a new challenge site Scraparoundtheworld  and I was drawn to the challenge by the colours of the challenge. I love Turquoise & I think the sketch is pretty cool as well



I had this photo of my DD I wanted to scrap so this seemed perfect

The turquoise reminds me of summer and the beads I have used as inspiration for droplets of water, using little coloured gems given to me by the lovely Kerri Smith  ages ago. I have also used my favourite colour glimmermist Patina and gesso reminding me of water and droplets of glams glitter paint. The chevrons are from Scrapmatts and I have gessoed them and painted with Glitter glam Paint> I have also picked up the colour from the moodboard of the brown/mustard colour that is also the colour of the wall in my photo


The washi which I have gessoed over and little black beads are from Craftqueen
Teresa Collins brads, which I love

The skies are grey and overcast here today, so the Background PP from Kaiser is a little more teal in colour.
I am going to the movies today, hope you enjoy your day. Pop over and check out Helen's new challenge site and also love you to join us in the challenges at Orange Paperie & ColorMeScrappy 

Love and Peace
Mary x
