It's been a quiet few days here after a very busy 'not holiday' and that is all good. It's nice to be home and relaxing.
Today is a special Dotty About Flair day as all of the new Design Team were given the same challenge to scrap our team photo. It was such fun to do
I was thrilled that one of the first projects was to scrap the fabulous team photo of the new 2022 team. Seeing the photo of us all made it all seem real.
I printed the image a little smaller as my annual albums are A4 so things tend to get a little scaled down.
It is no secret I am not good at mixed media, but I wanted a mixed media effect background and also wanted to show on my first page that I am very much a hybrid scrapper. So I made the grungy background by using various brushes in pinks and DAF colours and then printed my background on white cardstock which I then trimmed down and mounted on the aqua cardstock.
I have been scrapping for a long time and sadly have the stash to prove it and so the pink papers I chose were very old K and Co papers.
I thought it would be fun to make the group photo look like it was a framed photo hanging so used bakers twine and two of the new May release flair … the gorgeous terrazzo … to create this effect and then mimicked it with my photo.
Journalling is always key on my pages and so that tells how thrilled I was to have made the cut to be part of the team. The Bramble Fox perspective was just perfect for the title. I also added one of the new Rainbow Daze at the bottom to signify this team will certainly bring colour … and inspiration … to you.
The team will be uploading their pages using the team photo throughout the day on insta and in the group so check them all out.

In other scrapping we have a page or two as well
This was for a scrap squad sketch this week
This was a UKS sketch challenge
and this was another scrap squad and Lottie Loves Paper challenge
It feels nice to be back into scrapping again.
Today I am thankful for
- being able to rise above some very petty and quite toxic people ... life is too short and their lives must be very sad to be so petty (oh and I bet they read this and know I mean them!)
- my boys - they are just adorable. Yesterday (the first time he has done it) Koda brought me two toys , his favourites, and just lay down with me on the floor (I was playing a game)
- quiet gentle days
- being part of DAF
