Mood Board Challenge no.63

Hello Everyone

A warm welcome to our new Mood Board Challenge at Scrap Africa! ;-)

I am sure that you are going to love this soft and gentle mood board and would love it if you could play along! ;-)

You can create a card, tag, layout, an altered project, journal pages or even a digital project!

You can create whatever you like! ;-)

We would also love to know what inspired you from the board!;-)

We have a super Guest Designer for this mood board. Ewelina was a previous TOP HAT and she is an amazing creator! ;-)

It is also serendipitous that this lovely lady is also joining our Design Team! ;-)

Woot Woot! So pleased and delighted to have you on the team.

Hi!

My name is Ewelina and I live in a beautiful area of South Yorkshire, England. I am Polish but I moved to England 11years ago and never looked back. 

I have been scrapbooking for about a year now and have had an amazing journey so far! I started out by decorating my planner but that wouldn’t allow me to experiment fully with the mixed media as much as I wanted so I expanded into making mixed media folders and cards for my penpals and have since then developed immensely. I now mostly do mixed media layouts as well as continue treating my penpals to my random creations. I love building up layers and using different textures. I love using stencils and texture paste and layering colour over them. I also love flowers - they add another dimension to the page and make it softer even when the colours are ‘in your face’; they are 'the feminine touch' I like to add to my work.

You can see more of my work on my blog:

Thank you, Scrap Africa for having me as a guest designer.

Ewelina created this stunning page.

The background is fabulous.  The various textures are amazing! ;-)

Thanks so much Ewelina for this stunning page!

Please pop over to Ewelina's blog to see more scrappy eye candy! ;-)

We are so lucky to have another Guest Designer for this challenge and we have seen her work before, but never tire of her creativity and styling!!!! ;-)

Welcome Daria.

My little biography:

Hello! My name is Daria and I live in a small town in Siberia, not far from the beautiful Lake Baikal.

I have two little daughters ... Junior loves to be photographed, so its picture can often be found on my pages ...

My blog was "born" in this year, but I'm fond of scrap for quite a long time. I like to scrap everything and I'm happy to try new techniques.

I like to be inspired by the ideas and try unusual in his work, emphasizes the details, color or execution!

My hobby is a piece of my soul, my solace, my inspiration, and I am happy to share it with you: http://lilovayastrekoza.blogspot.ru/

Daria created this amazing folder/purse.

Special Guest Designer - Scrap Africa Sketch no.62

Hello Everyone

We have a super amazing Guest Designer today, to share her beautiful work for our new sketch Challenge no.62.  Welcome Jessika Lundman! ;-)

Here's a little about Jessika.

"Hi!

My name is Jessika and I live in the very north of Sweden. I live here with my boyfriend and our two sons. 

I have been scrapping since 2006 and have had a wonderful scrapping journey so far! I started out doing cards and small baby albums for peoples birthdays and such and has since then grown immensely. I now mostly do mixed media layouts. Putting paints and color on a white background is pure joy for me :D I just love to get messy! I also love contrasts. That is usually why I work on white and black backgrounds.

You can see more of my work on my blog
