Anna's Craft Cupboard Challenges

Over the last two months I found time to participate in a couple of challenges over at Anna's Craft Cupboard.

I'm enjoying having a bit more time to go in challenges. 

I really like how challenges push me in a particular direction, and make me try new things and think a little out of the box.

The first challenge was last month's sketch challenge:

As soon as I saw it I loved it!!

Here's what I came up with:

I created a watercolour background and then used stamps and paint to create the background. 

I used 2Crafty Chipboard Frames and Mini Hearts plus lots of stickers and layers behind the photo.

This month's challenge is a Colour Challenge:

I adore the colours, and as it's all about Autumn I thought of a photo I have been wanting to scrap that fits perfectly.

Here's my take on it:

Lots of 2Crafty Chipboard!

I hope the leaves look like they are falling, as that's the effect I was going for.

I used an embossing powder on some of the chippy and it gives an awesome metal look and feel to the chipboard.  Very cool.

I enjoyed using up lots of frames, and edges of stickers.  I added them together - some with foam tape to give added dimension.

I love the result!
