cybercrop pages

Took part in the cybercrop at Uproar on the weekend had a theme of green as in recycling....
The challenge was to make 3 cards but had to be shaped.... and use metal on somewhere. So I traced the circle template onto bazzil and cut around with the wiggly scissors and inked then found scraps of pp and cut out half the circle and added to ring pulls of cans and a cuttlekids diecut..... The second card I traced around a mini album I haven't done yet
and made a cute little girl card and used the tilda stamp and on her dress I used the cuttlebug and cut out the flourish out of a milo tin foil seal... and stuck on the bottom of her dress.....
Did the same for this card only it was little overalls and cut out the buttons with scraps of the milo foil.... and used cuttlkids die cut.....






had to do a mono green LO for this challenge so used more scraps out of stash mostly dcwv pp.




this challenge Lisa put up a picture we had to take inspiration from so I chose the colours and a few elements that were on the picture.....

I still have a few more things to add that I done......

The first cj through the LSS......It is themed on Travel, Journey or Vacation...... In the front of her journal we have to pick one of the meanings of the word and work from that, as we don't travel to far from home and our vacations usually end up as camping trips over the dam which is only a 40 min drive away maybe a couple of times a year usually in the months we don't have fire bans so we can cook a leg of lamb in the camp oven......yumm!! Jess usually takes some good scenic pics from these trips so it ended up looking okay.......

Wipeout Game 5 round 1 began yesterday the requirements:-
12x12 LO, main colours - brown, white, black and cream and can add 1 other colour, I added lilac, and a bear on the LO somewhere. I was going through some photo discs my cousin Susan gave me and came across this adorable photo of her at 15 months, so Sue if you are reading this can you give me a year I can add to this LO.
