October Designer Post for Happ Craft challenge blogspot

Good Morning all

It’s a new month already  here on the Happy Craft  Challenge - Support Group Face book Site, as part of the Design Team we were ask to create using Texture

WHAT IS TEXTURE, you may as?

 There are lots of types of texture, it can be rough, smooth, coarse or grainy

VISUAL TEXTURE:

Pattern papers, a combination of light and dark coloured paper

Medium:

By adding Mediums such as Mists, Embossing powder, Glitter, Paints, Inks and paste, creates another layer on your work be is an ATC, Junk Journal, Off the page piece, card or layout.

LAYERING:

By layering fussy cut pieces on to your work using foam tape, dots or square adds dimension and another form of texture

OTHER FORMS OF TEXTURE:

There are many ways to add texture to your work.  Items such as: Corrugated card, buttons, leather ribbon, string, stitching, material, cork, tags, metal, chipboard pieces, lace, dye cuts, you can add inks or paints to further add texture to these pieces or you can dye them, the list is endless.

MY EXAMPLE USING TEXTURE:

My creation used Visual textures, Mediums, Layering and other forms of texture.

Time Spent with family is worth Every second (Australia)

Good Morning 

Haven't done a post for a few days. life at the moment has been full on, We have plumbers back in the house hopefully to Finnish off the bathroom and laundry after having to have all the pipes replaced as they been in the house for over 50 yrs are where only giving us rusty water. The guy doing the cladding is back to day, now the work has been completed after the white ant invasion

Now for the reason for the post, I was told about this blog and its challenges and thought i might submit a page for this months challenge The challenge blog is ARTastic Challenge blog

https://artasticchallengeblog.blogspot.com

THE CHALLENGE:

It is Father's Day here in Australia tomorrow and as a tribute to the males in our lives our September inspiration comes to you from Robert Haganand is called The mentor.

The imagine remind me of my  late father in law and my husband talking about when he was  younger and all the holidays he had at the beach where is father taught him to fish,  or the  times they went out in the dingy , which we have inherited and is the backyard.
Not many photos of those days as they have aged so much its hard to get them reprinted, they need a look of work to bring them back to the original black and white photos
The one i have chose to recreate on to a layout, is one of my father in law with his dingy and coming back to shore after taking his grand kids on a ride down the Nepean River in Penrith N.S.W.

Kindergarten

Hello all,

Its late Friday afternoon, the day been rather warm, but overcast, I thought it would storm this afternoon but it didn't.
I cleaned out one of my cabinets with scrap paper in it this morning as i was looking for something and it was not  where it was suppose to be. ( the grandchildren  use these bits and pieces, plus i have two drawers in there which i use.

It took me a colour of hours to put it back how it should be. ( Its ready for the school holidays now which are fast approaching)

This afternoon after lunch decide i would do the KRAFT + challenge layout. i had an idea in mind that I had sketch out the previous afternoon, just need to gather supplies.

http://kraftpluschallenges.blogspot.com

The challenge was to use your office supplies to make a page.

I have used :- paper clips string, thumb tacks ( which i used metallic paint to change to silver) , split pins , bulldog clip,  file dividers ( i had actual put these aside when i was sorting the receipts out for the accountant last week) our ABN stamp, an old red stamp pad , could not find the Cancelled stamp which goes with it, Brother Label maker, a notebook cover, and a piece of magnetic cork board, I also used a yellow stamp pad ink. Not sure why it was in my husband office.  Both stamps pads where nearly dry

I have not written up  on how i put this together as i used scraps of paper found whilst cleaning out this morning, with the base sheet coming from "2 Cool 4 school" from Kaisercraft , and  piece of Kraft card stock cut to 11 x 11"

Our Fairy Tale

Afternoon All

It"s a beautiful Spring day, quite warm, I have again open the windows and doors to allow the breeze and the fragrance of the wisteria to come thru.
This layout is of our first great grand daughter, we have three others which are all boys. When this Kaisercraft Fairy Collection was released , i  knew i wanted to use this to scrap one of her photos with it although she was not born yet. This photo was taken the day she was born, with her grandfather holding her. As yet we have not traveled south to see her, that will  be our Christmas holiday trip.

The Layout is for a challenge on the Mystical Scrapbooks  blog site.

There are two challenges set each month I have decided to do Gypsy's challenge first.

Your challenge is to either: make your journalling hidden - mine is slipped under the black and white paper on the left. Or: use the same sentence starter for your journalling... I've used 'I love..." for my LO below, but you can use any starter that you want.
I have done a hidden tag which i have slipped in under the layers of paper, with the outside saying "Our Fairy Tale"
