Weekly Roundup – 15th August

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

Hi Everyone – sorry the weekly roundup is a little late.

This week saw the end of Round 11 of our Masterchook competition. The challenge for this round was to scraplift a page designed by Scrapcat. Lots of gorgeous pages were uploaded for this challenge – here a just a few of them.

Great work chooks and good luck to you all for this round. If you would like to see more of the entries just drop by our gallery.

We also had our monthly CC on over the weekend with lots of wonderful entries which you can check out in our gallery. Voting is now up so to help choose a winner make sure you drop by the forum and cast your vote.

I think that is all for now – Happy Scrapping everyone!

Weekly Roundup 8th August

Sunday, August 8th, 2010

This week we have had two new chooks join our community and they have also shared some of their wonderful work in the gallery.

Here is a sample of Sam and Megan’s beautiful creations – if you would like to see more from them just visit our gallery.

Chocolate Factory by Sam – I just love the wonderful doodling on this page.

Birthday Card by Megan - love the vintage feel Megan has created on this card.

This week also saw some uploads for round 11 of Masterchook. The competition is nearing the end and I will miss seeing the wonderful entries each fortnight. This round is a scraplift challenge and we were privileged to have one of our favourite, retired Creative Chooks return to create a wonderful page to be scraplifted.

Thankyou for the opportunity to scraplift your page Scrapcat aka Fran!

Here are a couple of very creative scraplifts that have been entered so far -

Weekly Roundup 1st August

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

This week saw the end of Round 9 of our Master Chook competition so there were plenty of new pages uploaded in the gallery.

Here are a few that caught my eye -

Danger Boy at Work by Hilary – I just love this title and there is so much to look at on this page with all the little finishing touches Hilary has added.

Family by Jem – The handcutting on this page is gorgeous and the lovely rich colours complement the photo beautifully.

Ready, Fire by Kathy – The muted browns and oranges that Kathy has used really make the photos pop from the page.

Matt by Maggie – The fawn and red colour scheme Maggie has used on this page really catches your eye and I love the list she has created for her journaling.

Weekly Roundup – 23rd July, Part Two

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

Hi all!

Well I’m back with a few more pages from our gallery that were uploaded last week.

On this page Maggie has very cleverly used the circle so that it draws your attention to the photo.

By creating a triangle with three clusters of embellishments within the white space, Geraldine has created a page that highlights the photo perfectly.

Ceci has created a fresh, eye catching page by combining the colours hot pink and aqua.

My last choice for this week is a fun card created by SharonD.
