ANOTHER FREAKING SCRAPPY CHALLENGE ~ FAVOURITE PLACE AND SOUL SCRAPPERS

Hello ! I am popping in this evening to share the new challenge at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge and also some projects for Soul Scrappers.
The Challenge this month at AFSC is to scrap your favourite place. Now I have several favourite places , so I had to narrow it down. Some of my favourite places are Paris ( I want to go back one day ), Little French villages, Tuscany, The little Island of Navutu in Fiji and the Greek Island of Patmos. Told you I have a lot of favourite places.
I ended up going with Tuscany ,as it is our dream when we retire to spend a few months there and whilst there we will visit France and Paris (you have to have dreams right ?)
So this is my layout of San Gimignano



When we were in Tuscany in 2008 , we were located near a little village called Pievescola and from here we could do day trips to Sienna , San Gimignano, Casole D' Elsa ,Volterra to name a few. All so Beautiful .
Thank you Jo for the Favourite paper clip. The Tree button is from Craft Queen.
I hope you will share your favourite place with us this month.

Also I would like to share some projects for Soul Scrappers, where they have oodles of challenges to choose from.
For this particular challenge you needed to use Washi tape and the letter W. My W is in My title . This is my Two beautiful Grandchildren on ANZAC Day 


You can find the tutorial for the flowers on my friend Kylie's You tube channel

The heart , flower, and butterfly were sent to my by my lovely Irish Pen Friend . The die cut leaves were sent to me by a fellow Soul Scrapper Mary, thank you Mary.
Now a couple of cards for challenges at Soul Scrappers.



This one was to use Yellow and the letter Y on your project. I decided to make a card with the left overs from the previous layout. The ribbon was also from my Irish Pen friend ( she is a good pen friend :) 
Then a card, the theme Transport


I have had the vintage car stamp for a long time, so was glad to use it. I have used Prima packaging under the stamped image and the sentiment is a Kaiser stamp as is the clock stamps on my image .
Also at Soul Scrappers I was sent a envelope of goodies and they are to be used for a layout with the theme of clowns. A clown has to be on the layout. I chose to use a photo of my Daughter when she was a wee little one . We were even sent a balloon, I wasn't sure how I was going to use it, but managed to use it to place the word Fun on it. I made a shaker pocket for the sequins. My daughter is actually crying in the photo , she was not keen on the clowns at all 



I know this is a long post , so if you are still with me Thank You !
Hope you are all having a good week.
Love, Peace and Kindness

Wow Mary you really are blowing me away with your creations. I adore your favourite place layout, lots of yummy layers. Your Anzac Day page is so different to your usual style & I love the design you have used along with the colours & you'll have to teach me how to make those flowers when I see you next. Your cards are very prettiful, I especially like the vintage car stamp. Thanks for sharing xx
