Teacher's Bothy Trip - The Studio Challenge - Recipe

Hi there 

It's time for me to another chance to take part in another challenge. This time I used a challenge from The Studio Challenges 

Recipe Challenge

Ingredients: 3 photos 2 stripes of Washi tape Sequins Paint Hearts
Method: First take 3 photos, add 2 stripes of washi tape, mix it up with a spoon of sequins, let it cook slowly with some paint and serve it with a sprinkling of hearts.

This is what I made of it!

The photos relate to a cycle trip we undertook in May/June 2018.  This involved getting a ferry (in reality a wee boat for people and bikes) from the Isle of Mull to the Isle of Ulva.  

We then cycled through the Isle of Ulva to get to the Isle of Gometra which is connected via a wee metal bridge (which sometimes gets swept away, lol) 

The whole journey from arriving on the Isle of Ulva to getting to the Teachers Bothy on the Isle of Gometra was only about 8 miles.  However the track we rode on was very uneven, very muddy and very challenging.

As you can see from the photos we enjoyed some beautiful scenery along the way though which made it worth while.

The Isle of Gometra has only a few permanent inhabitants and while it is only approx 1.64 sq mile in size you're unlikely to see a soul while you're there.  We thoroughly enjoyed the isolation.

For this layout I used:

Ingredients: 3 photos - of our island hopping trip across Ulva and Gometra 2 stripes of Washi tape - Paperchase Sequins - Random Paint - Liquid Pearls – Ruby Red Hearts -
American Crafts – Foam Hearts/Random chipboard heart

I also used the following products:

Flower brad – Unknown

Imagination Project – Anyone, anyone? – Snooty Blue

Hobbycraft – Watercolour Dreams Paper – Orange

American Crafts – Thickers – Feliz

Pebbles Layered Embellishments  - School (altered)

I hope you enjoyed my layout.

Thanks

Create - For my craft room door

I made this for my craft room door.  A while ago I bought a box with different colours felt butterflies.   I knew then I would use the box for something else in true scrapbooking style.

I started off by spraying the box with Cosmic Shimmer mist in Golden Fish and let it dry.

 

I used 4 different papers from the Tim Holtz Lost and Found paper stack in the panels.  I then added trim, buttons, angel hair, mesh and a brad in these panels too.

I sprayed the front of  the word 'Create' with Cosmic Shimmer mist in Candy Pink and then covered it with Distress Crackle Paint in Rock Candy from Ranger. I painted the back, sides and odd little bits on the front with black acrylic paint.

I added all the bits and bobs such as the red feather, buttons, angel hair etc then adhered the word to the front.  

I am really pleased with how it turned out and will now take pride of place on my scraproom door.
