White With One - April

So, new month, new challenge for White With One. But this is also my last one with WW1, I have had such a wonderful time creating for this team and the new people on board will continue to inspire you too!

This month the colour is sand, and it was a little trickier than I expected!





My page:

Now first up you can see my colour is probably a little pinker than the sample colour, and I am finding that depending on which screen I see it on it varies greatly too. The mist splatters are probably a closer match. Oh well!

I have used lots of D-lish goodies (I know, that is my usual line!), and also a gorgeous resin feather from one of our sponsors - Cycloneboonty_pl_goodies. Check out the rest of the teams fantastic pages here.

Don't forget to check out our sponsors too:

I hope to see you playing along too!

White With 1 March

Wow, March, hard to believe really. But another month is definitely upon us, which means reveals for new challenges.

White With 1 this month is a gorgeous shade of green called Hemlock.



And this is my page with the colour:

I have used lots of great D-lish Scraps goodies on this page too. There are just so many great white and black bits and bobs at D-lish!

Journal spots and labels are great for layering and adding important information too of course! Loving the short arrow paperclips from Freckled Fawn. My sequin flowers have been secured on using perfect pearls (in pearl) so they look like they have a coloured centre.

Love the sequin bows and little pegs! The bows come in all sorts of colours and so do the pegs!

Now a challenge wouldn't be anything without a thank you to our sponsors. This month we have the following sponsors, make sure you go and check them out. You can see here what the prizes are too!

February White With One

A new month and a new colour! This month is one of my favourite colours - Celosia Orange

I just love orange, so happy and bright! We also got to play with some awesome Tinby Metallic Melts which were so much fun. They are one of the sponsors this month too, so make sure you check them out.

Our other sponsors this month are:

Imaginarium Designs
Scrappy Chat Designs
Funky Flairs Studio
Charms Creations

So after all that, here is my page:

I used the Tinby Melts in three ways, I used them on my chipboard stars (these happen to be Imaginarium Designs chipboard too!), I mixed it in with the texture paste that is on the background design (I also melted it within the paste) and I used it around the edges of my striped paper a bit like inking to add some texture. So there you go, see how versatile the Tinby Melts are!!!

Make sure you go and check out what the rest of the team did here, and then maybe have a go yourself.

December White With 1

Can you believe it is a new month already?! Not only that we are well and truly into countdowns now, for Christmas and New Year and end of school!

But a new month means a new colour over at WW1 and this month is great, it is Paloma, which is what colour I hear you ask?! Well it is a warm grey, but good for sophisticated Christmas pages, or in my case Halloween!

The creative team was very lucky to receive some gorgeous goodies from Charm's Creations to use also. These goodies are so easy to use and Charm makes them in all sorts of gorgeous colours too, so make sure you check out her handmade goodies here.

As usual I have managed to add in a few D-lish Scraps goodies onto my page too. There are always something to find that I can use that comes from D-lish!

Besides Charm's Creations we have some other lovely sponsors this month, so make sure you go and check them out too! You just never know what you might find!

Imaginarium Designs
Scrap Everything
Scrapping Bits

Make sure you go and check out work from the other creative team members too, I am sure you will find some inspiration to scrap with Paloma! WW1 December Link

Second Post for Imaginarium Designs

So, half way through November already. Just crazy really! It is always like this at this time of the year so I shouldn't be surprised but it always is exhausting.

Thought I would just pop in and share my next post that is up over at Imaginarium Designs, you can see the whole post here. Also they are having a Design Team call if you love working with all kinds of cool chipboard. It closes on 30th November and details are on their blog.

I think this is one of my favourite pages that I have created so far.

I added little seed beads to the chipboard to give the feeling of the foam and bubbles on the waves, love how it turned out!

And I had a ball creating the title with the drawing and cutting features on my Silhouette. So much fun!

Guest Designer at Imaginarium Designs

So, my first post as guest designer for Imaginarium Designs went up over the weekend! It was so much fun playing with all the great chipboard that Natalie sent me. In fact there was almost too much to choose from!

So this is what I created:

For more details head over to the ID blog.

I have two more posts with them over the month so keep a look out!

Playing with Chipboard

A little while ago, back in August actually, I was a lucky winner of a Facebook competition with Imaginarium Designs chipboard. I was sent a generous pack of assorted chipboard pieces and was told to play! I have some special projects that will be shown on the Imaginarium Designs blog sometime during November so keep a look out for those. But until then here is one that I have created recently.

When I saw the train, I just knew that I had to use the photos from my nephews first birthday earlier this year! I coloured in the stars with a silver wink of luna metallic pen (amazing by the way!) and then covered in glossy accents to give some depth to the chipboard.

I also used some of the stars that were in assorted sizes. I covered the stars in red glitter Zing embossing powder from American Crafts. It added such a nice sparkle and finish to them!

I have had the opportunity to work with ID chipboard before in some of my WW1 projects, and they happen to be a sponsor this month too, so make sure you enter!
