Shimelle's Scrapbooking Weekend

My favourite scrapbooker Shimelle Laine hosted an amazing free online scrapbooking event last week. It span 3 days and incorporated numerous techniques, layout ideas, storage solutions, inspiration suggestions and more. Every few hours a new challenge was added totally in 16 challenges by the end of the marathon event. I eagerly awaited the next post to see what was coming up next. As I was still recovering I was unable to take part but my head was reeling with ideas. I printed each challenge out and my aim is to do each one and post it on here. This weekend, although still in pain, I decided that I wanted to do some of the challenges and post them before the deadline in order to try and win some goodies. Also to give me abit of focus and most importantly get some scrapbooking done. So here they are.

Challenge 04: Colour Adventure. Scrap with grey, yellow and one other colour of your choice (I chose red).


Challenge 05: Inspiration Points. Take inspiration from a scrapbook page by Wilna Furstenberg. Inspiration points: panoramic photo, side strips, placement, punch work (flowers), scattered motifs (flowers top and bottom), date bottom right, ribbon bottom right, larger image tip left, individual words above photograph.


Challenge 13: Print It Out. Use free printable designed by Little Musings.
