Hi!
Did you see already a new challenge at Scrap Around the World?
This is my page made for it;
I used all;papers, mists and flowers from 13 arts.
EXAMPLES OF HOW THE MOOD BOARD CAN INSPIRE YOU!
1. You could be inspired by THE COLOURS - some of them, all of them, or one of them!
2. You can use ANY colours & DO NOT need to follow the colours of the mood board at all
if you are inspired by SOMETHING ELSE on the board instead.
3. You can be inspired by any of the images, some of the images or all of them!
For example:- you could use - Ruffles, chain, bling, rhinestones, clear dots,
pearls, gold, glitter, hearts, metal embellishments, bows, silver, metallics,
antique-inspired embellishments, jewelled clusters, leaves, feathers, berries,
vines, twigs, twine, stickpins, flowers, ribbons, crochet, misting, confetti, sprinkles,
gesso, vellum or ANYTHING ELSE that springs to mind when you look at the mood board.
REMEMBER TO TELL US WHAT INSPIRED YOU UNLESS IT IS OBVIOUS :)
Use our sketch as your staring point as we would like to see that it definitely inspired you!
Feel free to 'make it your own' by flipping it, turning it, inverting it & moving things about if you like but
PLEASE DO NOT DEPART FROM IT ENTIRELY!
You can also change the photo orientation & number of photos to be as few or as many as you like.
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO!
1. Be inspired by ANY ASPECT of our mood board
(this could be just ONE aspect, many aspects or EVERY aspect!)
Let us know what inspired you unless it is obvious!
AND
2. Use our sketch as your starting point
(We need to SEE that you started off with our sketch -
no need to follow it entirely but please it needs to be visible in your layout).
3. Both the sketch & mood board images
OR THE COMBO IMAGE OF BOTH
MUST appear in your challenge entry.

an Australian based company & are importers & wholesalers of
fine handmade & milled mulberry papers,beautiful ribbons, fabric
flowers, washi tape, etc. They are continually adding to their
collections of high quality products & provide papers with rich
colours, wonderful textures & beautiful patterns.
Their
growing business has provided work to many villagers in the area where
the paper is made. Mulberry paper (or saa paper as it is called in
Thailand) is made from the bark of the mulberry tree, which peels from
the trunk of the tree at the end of each rainy season, making it an
ecologically friendly product, as no trees are cut down in the process!
The
bark is pulped & spread onto large racks to dry then used to make
numerous products, including the Green Tara petals & flowers - which
are all hand made. Their riibbons are made from the finest
quality fabrics available & their already extensive range is
continually growing. The latest Green Tara product is Washi Tape.
