Go British at Scrap rendez-vous

There are 3 challenges at Scrap rendez-vous this month, and I wanted to enter all 3, but starting at the 11th hour . . . and don't even know if these 2 will make it in time.

First Valerie's sketch challenge, of which we had a choice of 2, and I chose

and my card is . . .

Then there is the So British challenge. I have been sitting on doing my London album since October last year, to this was the kick I needed. Just loved the vibrant colours in the fabrics of the inspiration . . .

And that's exactly what I spotted at Covent Gardens . . . vibrant colours . . . popsicles . . . hats . . . ties . . . I just was inspired by it!

Family Project.

The box was the kit from Club Scrap (Shadow-in-a-box November 2010) and I needed to assemble it - 2" deep. I am a bit of a philistine in that I mix and match anything from my stash. So I didn't use their paper supplies as they were not the colour I wanted. Just got these perfect papers and flocked lettering the day before in the post! Had fun with the embellishments . . . stamping (Hero Arts & Club Scrap), flowers, silhouette cutouts, pearls, pegs, metalica.

Play Date Cafe 72

I just love Dina Wakely's work - so inspiring - colourful, free, space to breath, original ! So as her work was the inspiration for this week, I wanted to play along.

Have been waiting the use the Inkadinkado sentiment stamp with just this kind of card. The black artistic lines are from Club Scrap.

Inspired by Simply Create, Alford

I just loved the romantic inspiration and colours of Simply Create, Alford's latest challenge. And there is £100 of goodies up for grabs.

And my take is below, but this will not be able to be entered as I forgot the button!

I will have to play again and use the colour combination, and have a flower and a button!
