D-lish Scraps October Inspiration Board

If you have seen the latest issue of Scrapbooking Memories you will have seen my current How to Graphic article is all about how to use an inspiration or mood board to create pages, and I created three pages from this very board (that Amanda so generously supplied me with early just for the article). Well, I have created a fourth page from this board and this time used the fabulous kit that went along with it!




Aren't the colours just awesome and so many things to inspire you too. Here is the page that I created most recently for this board:

I pretty much only used the kit to complete this page and with all the wonderful goodies included it was an easy task! This sunrise photo perfectly went with the wood veneer too, making a title a no brainer!

I created the background using my brights gelato set (specifically the yellow, and bright it is!) and a circle stencil and a baby wipe to spread the gelato over the stencil. I had seen this technique before but never tried it and I am more than pleased with how it worked. Needless to say I will be using this technique again!

The photo corners were created using the kit washi tape and cardstock. An easy way to dress up a photo!

So, it just goes to show you can create multiple pages from one inspiration board. Have you had a go yet?

Thanks for stopping by,

D'lish Scraps September Inspiration Board

As soon as I saw this month's inspiration board at D'lish I knew that I had to have a go, this was further cemented when I saw the kits that went along with it!

Aren't the colours just gorgeous?! Anyway, I was quick in and managed to score myself a kit and armed with that and little else I began! This is what I finished with.

I used a new Heidi Swapp hearts stencil with some Colour Shine sprays to create the background, and used my own hand writing to create a cut file for the title. I love the way it turned out!

D'Lish Scraps August Inspiration Board

I love using inspiration or mood boards for challenges. They are so open to interpretation and there are always so many different things that you can be inspired by. D'Lish do an inspiration board each month and this one is just beautiful! It is called Cotton Candy:

So many things to be inspired by. I took away the flowers, colours (sort of!) and the frames for my page:

New Inspiration Board at D'Lish Scraps

First of all I would like to say thank you to Amanda for having me on for another three month stint at D'Lish with the creative team! This also means I have another sample for the new board.

This month the board is "All that Glitters", very pretty and so on trend right now!

So, for my page, I was inspired by the sketch, the iPhone case and the washi tape, and of course the gold! And here is what I came up with!

I used the following products from the D'Lish store:

Freckled Fawn woodchips - Birds (music notes in this pack too!)

Metal Photo Corners - gold (which I cut in half to sit flat on my page)

Foil Doiley - gold

Journal It's - spool top sentiments in kraft

Motex Writer and black tape

From the "Just Add Paper Kit" - flair, bow, flower, scallop glitter tape, glitter canvas tape (behind the chipboard star)

The background paper was just perfect to mimic the phone case, and the right colour too! (not quite gold but close enough!) Then splashes of gold and black around the place help to finish off. I also used my Wink of Stella gold pen to colour the music notes and the little birdie. So easy! So off you go, time to play with "all that glitters", head over to D'Lish for even more inspiration from the other creative team members!! I hope to be checking out your work very soon!
