Red Helmet

      AAB (About A Boy) having fun for their Sept 1 Challenge and crossover with AAG (About A Girl) the challenge is to create a page with black white + one color. And here is my attempt, combined with Let's Get Sketchy September Week 2 Challenge.

Sketch by Ashley Horton





I am still behind using enamel dots so
 I used brads instead (need to use up my stash). 
And since I have no small white brad, I made my
own using ink and embossing powder.


use a piece of cardstock to hold the brads


ink them 


embossing powder


heating tool


Voila! Paints and nail polish 
will be great too (I think). I will try
and will let you the result.

Hello everyone, please come and join me for my September reveal over at SSIB (ScrapStuffz Inspired By) . Please see below image for this month inspiration.



And here`s my attempt.
 


         I know, I know, my colors are totally off from the lovely Fall colors in the inspiration photo. But man, I totally fell in love with the bottles. Just like a jar full of goodness, I created a jar full of love from a lovely couple. I took tons of great photos from these two and I really want to squeeze all of them, mini prints are the best! Photos were taken from our recent trip to Whistler, British Columbia.
