JAI 119 Winners

Hello Everyone,

Again, sorry for the lateness in posting.  As I mentioned last week, I normally do this at work but my work computer needs to be fixed, and until the one of the boys has time to fix it, I'll be doing this posting at home, and more than likely after I have feed the hungry beasts at home :)

Thanks to all of you who took the time to enter our Sketch challenge - what we may have lacked in quantity was certainly made up with quality.

Our winner for this week is Melissa, with this stunning take on the sketch

Congratulations!

JAI#118 - Just Add...Me, May, no Mae

Well this week's challenge post is a bit embarrassing and hard to write as it involves myself and it is my turn to prepare the post. For those who regularly join in our challenges you would know that we often find inspiration amongst ourselves and so have at times set the challenge to CASE one of the JAI Design Team and Delys decided that since it was the month of May, that the team should CASE "Mae", that being me!

Therefore, to officially announce this week's challenge....

"Just Add....Mae Collins"

So head on over to my blog and hopefully you will find something that inspires you there, so that you can join in with this week's challenge, and upload your card/project below. You might find something to inspire you in layout, colour, technique etc. Don't forget to link up in your post the card/project from my blog that inspired you so that the DT can see how you have used it to create your own submission for this challenge.

Here is my CASE of myself...

Mae Collins

Then here is what other Design Team members were inspired to create from projects on my blog...

Chantell Randall

Christine Blain

Kathy Tanner

Kim Badelt

Narelle Farrugia

Nikki Spencer

JAI 117 Winners!

Hello Everyone

Yay for Thursday - it's nearly the end of the week :)  I've had a very disorganised week this week - our renovations have moved into another phase - replacement of the ceilings in our entry, lounge, dining, kitchen and family room - the result of removing walls and finding that ALL of the celings were at various heights.  As a result, I have 3 rooms of furniture in 1 and my kitchen has been wrapped in plastic for the last 3 days.  Thank goodness for takeaway :)

Anyway, onto today's task, which is to announce this week's winner.  I couldn't believe how many beautiful cards we had enter our 'Yellow' challenge this week.  I thought that these colours would scare a lot of people off, but you all proved me wrong.  The DT had a very HARD time narrowing down their choices as we had so many lovely entries.

Our winner for this week is  Helen  with this gorgeous, bright & happy creation.  I just love the basket full of daisies.

Congratulations!

JAI Scrap #5 Just Add Vintage/Heritage

Happy scrapbooking weekend for all those scrapbookers out there this first weekend of May! This month's challenge is...

Just Add Vintage/Heritage 

Vintage or Heritage scrapbooking is often similar but Heritage is often about family history or events. It can also have a modern twist with an old photo or be vintage in style. Vintage is a style but can be on modern events or ancestors/times gone past events. Confused? Don't worry that's normal! Most vintage/heritage LOs (layouts) are a combination of the two which is why we have said Vintage/Heritage this month! Here are some styles from the DT to inspire you. 

Ruth Clarke with a Heritage LO of herself. Ruth has vintage elements in her LO with the paper she has used.

 Tina Gillespie with a Heritage LO of family members. The flowers she has used and paper give a vintage look to her layout.

  

and mine (Delys)  ...a Heritage/Vintage LO of my Grandparents. Ruffled edges/patchwork style is often a vintage style. Embossed cardstock and lacy edges complete the look.

So we hope you can play along this month. 

Please have a look at the rules and link up with Linky tools below.
