April ScrapBursts Post 13

We are quickly winding down our ScrapBurst entries, with Pumpkin Time right before us.  We have been lucky to see some great layouts and cards in both challenges, with the girls pushing their creative boundaries to get their projects completed.  Thanks for playing everyone, and now we have a few more left to share!

Bursting with inspiration, you could say.  We are seeing more creations today from the Card Bursts, and the variety is just fantastic.  I can't explain how exciting it is to see all your work and marvel at how different they can be to each project in that challenge.  Thanks to everyone who has entered their work, and again to everyone who is entering each challenge.  We really are spoilt with your creativity, and today is no different, so check these out...

April/May Sketch Challenge

Welcome to the next Sketch Challenge.  This month we have two more fantastic sketch designs from Anita, and some wonderful inspiration to help you along.  We hope you'll take part in these, and look forward to seeing how you put yours together!

Such beautiful samples from Anita, I hope you all find them as inspiring as I do. The Team is looking forward to seeing what you all come up with! The Sketch Challenge expires Pumpkin Time May 14th, so don't forget to upload to the Linky before then, or drop/email your challenge to Scrapville.

And just to remind everyone, you can use your own stash to do your sketches, but please be aware that Scrapville is a retail business which does not and cannot support party plan products. To be fair to everyone I hope you will appreciate that should you decide to use these products on your challenge that you will not be considered for prizes from Scrapville.


The sketch can be rotated or flipped, but must be recognizable as the sketch design and not go outside the design criteria. There is a minimum number of entries required before prizes will be awarded. Good luck everyone, we're looking forward to seeing Anita's fantastic design put to work!

We are well on our way to the half way mark for our ScrapBurst Challenges, and I must say how great is it to see so many of you participating.  I love seeing how you all approach the challenges, and what you draw your inspiration from.  This is going to be a hard one for the girls to pick when it comes to the winners, everyone has made the challenges so exciting.  Keep them coming, we have some great prizes to give away, and the Pumpkin is over two weeks away!!

April ScrapBursts - Post 7

Hi all, here we are again with lots more to share for our ScrapBursts.  I am very impressed with the lovely creations coming in, there is so much diversity in each challenge.  It certainly opens up the avenues for you all to go that little bit outside your usual scrapping or cardmaking comfort zones.  Take a look below to see what we to share today.
Show & Tell
CB#4-Spellbinders
Vintage Card (2) by Heidi Hemmerling (SV)
Heidi found this die (S6-005) just perfect for using with vintage or heritage papers for an elegant card.  The use of soft patterned papers, flower images or even handmade flowers created using your dies in coordinating colours gives the card that little bit more. 
Something we may like to consider occasionally is re-using your wax papers from the dies.  In this case Heidi has layered several butterflies, softening the card and adding a bit of dimension.  It's such a lovely touch and looks so delicate. Thanks for sharing Heidi.
