Hi there scrappers !!!
First off - check out the ‘Lift me !! Challenge #1 at the Forum ! January’s Sketch challenges proved to be popular and with some of you asking for more regular challenges, starting this March we bring you TWO challenges to satisfy those scrap-challenge cravings. The challenge can be interpreted almost any way you like, with an easy set of instructions from the challenge host.We hope to see as many of you in the challenge run, so come play along for the fun. The winner gets a RAK of new CHA products.
Our Gallery is popping again this week and this time we take a look at Multiple photos in a layout.
Salme is a prolific scrapper and she shared this wonderfully eye-catching layout with us. Love the great photos and the details below them.
Annissa always insists she is a simple scrapper, and in her case simple also means beautiful, using lovely photos of her daughter at ballet.
Marix is a regular contributor though work sometimes does keep her away from scrapping for too long ! I like the way she stepped the two photos and stamped then coloured her own butterfly accents.
I hope you enjoyed our Guest layouts as much as I did ! Thank you ladies for posting in the Gallery, your pages will be another scrapper’s source of ideas and inspiration.
This is all from me tonight, I’ll be back soon, see you !

Hello !! It’s Wednesday, mid-week, not too long before the weekend !
This month the Design Team are working on assignments featuring mediums. The easiest would be to start with paint and gloss, then Mists or Embossing Powders. As you get more comfortable with using paints, misters and glosses, you will see that mediums add a depth and richness to your work, lifting it from the everyday normal. With the cross-over of mediums into scrapbooking and the products now ready on the shelves at Made With Love, it really is time to experiment to find out which of mediums will suit your scrapping style.
Emeline is really amazing at bright colours and she uses Crackle Paint. Click on her name to read the details.
On this canvas I’ve used Inchies I made as tiny embellishments together with a whole host of mediums - paints, mists, gloss and embossing powders.
Both projects are in the store if you would like a closer look.
On other news : The Design Team will have a new Challenge up in March WE KNOW you will love ! The Sketch Challenges in January proved to be very popular and we felt that challenges should continue to rev up the scrapping mojo for everyone. Remember to look out for further information here or in the message board.
I’ll see you soon, have a good week ahead, keep scrapping !!
