First Sketch Challenge....

I have had a combination pastel yellow and turquoise in my head all day plus a sketch challenge set by Stuck Sketches (http://stucksketches.blogspot.com/) it was just about finding the right photo and embellies. 
I have had fun creating and arranging this LO but now comes the slight apprehension of sharing it, quite a lot more publicly than I am use to. 


I chose the photo of my Brands Exclusive Boa boots because of its neutral colours, aiding me to successfully use my chosen colour combo. Many of the elements/embellies come from another kit I purchased from Polly! Scrap Kits http://www.pollyscrapkits.blogspot.com.

Be sure to check out the mentioned blogs, there are many talented scrappers to draw knowledge and inspiration from.

Take care

Today's challenge....no photos!!

Hey, well I was successful at achieving a clean Den but it didn't last long.....does this ever happen to you, inspiration striking after a clean up?


Whilst cleaning and dusting I stumbled across some wrappers and tags. I had promised myself I would scrap these to help record the gifts we have received from my dearest friend, recording her far away travels. Today I achieved this by creating this LO using some of a kit I purchased from Polly! Scrapkits, "July Mini Release Kit". 


     


I have also started on another page but had to put that on hold to enjoy a lovely night of mature and sensible (Ha ha ha) board gaming with great mates....it will be completed tomorrow if this weather continues =)


Cheers,
Ree xxx getting scrapping =P

Introducing myself to the world of BLOGGING =/

Well this is what it is all about, a world of confusion and questions. "Am I doing this right?" "Will it be appealing to others?" ARGH!!! I have just decided to say "Here we go, give it your best". 


I should really start by saying I have not made the huge blooper of spelling "Peace's" incorrectly on my bi-line, this is fact my family's last name and this is one of our lil plays on our name. 


The photos below represent my lil den in its worst and best moments. Boy, I have spent some time in there (mostly cleaning LOL), especially of late. This lil room is MY place, my poor family have to put up with my many places eg. my/our bedroom, the diva den and my study space! I am always looking to create a more workable station, one that I will find my scissors easily or that lil embellie I just had....come to think of it my den is at its worst as I type, tomorrow's job... 

Thank you for taking the time to check the Diva Den out, it is just a work in progress; one that I hope I will get much pleasure out developing and sharing.Stay safeRee xxx
