The Last Goodbye- Scrap Around The World March Challenge

Welcome back to Scrap Around The World Challenge ELEVEN, 

hosted by Design Team member Alexandra Polyzou

  Γειά σας from Greece!

Feel free to interpret Alexandra's mood board in any way you like,

 using one image, several of them, all of them or even just 

one aspect of an image, using ANY COLOURS!

HERE IS MY INTERPRETATION OF THE MOOD BOARD:

This is photo of my mom's hand holding my grandmother's hand on her last moments. Its a very special picture for my mom and she asked me if I could scrap it and frame it for her and so here it is.

I've used of course all my favourite products: Prima flowers and embellishments, Shimmerz paints and sprays and Blue Fern Studios chipboard

For Shimmerz I used: Sunny, Pink and Art Pop Pink. You can find all these colours in the Shimmerz Store and if you mention my name during checkout you will receive a free product.

You can see the texture and ink in the photo below using Shimmerz in the background and on the Blue Fern Chipboard: Charmed page dangles and Shabby Layered Frame.

Products:

White Card Stock: Coordinations

Prima flowers and Resins

Stencils: Prima and Heidi Swapp

Shimmerz paints

Blue Fern Studios chipboard

Farber Castell water color pencil

Golden Light Molding paste

Alpha Prima

A reminder about our  DESIGN TEAM CALL - click HERE for further details.

  I am not wanting a team with dozens of people.  I know that is "de rigueur"

 at the moment but I love a manageable group of people that can get to know 

each other & feel like an integral & indispensable part of something special 

so I'm being very selective & already have my shortlist.

   Please apply SOON if you are interested as it's getting tougher by the day :)

The deadline for this challenge is MONDAY 31TH MARCH 2014!

HAVE FUN CREATING!!!
