'Summer Time', the new Challenge

It seems aaaaaages since the last challenge at http://craftyindividualsblog.blogspot.co.uk/

The new challenge is 'Summer Time' chosen for the reason that the clocks have now gone forward and we have the summertime to look forward to.

I managed three pieces for the challenge this time, the first of which was an MDF tag, shown above. The stamps I used were plates 278 (Beside the Seaside), 284 (Friends) and 302 (Floral Postcard) The background was a mixed up jumbled assortment of paints.

The next project was a card. I wanted to create the sounds, and lovely floral smells the summer months bring, so used the perfume plate CI-341, along with a clock from plate CI-255 and the tiny words from CI-258. The bird and cage die is a Tim Holtz design for Sizzix.

Finally I used beermats to create this mini accordian book

I used some clocks and butterflies from my stash for the front and then based every page layout the same, using a CI square slide mount which I embossed and coloured, an image from Crafty Individuals yummy books and the clocks from plate CI-255 to mount the word 'SUMMER' onto.

Just ignore the next photo. I just can't manage to delete it lol!

Why not enter the challenge yourself, There are prizes up for grabs!
