Since my car crash back in 2011 I have struggled with a lot of things personally - Mostly going back to work full time with my injuries and head mental issues. Now my son is growing older I need to be there for him; to help with school work and ferry him around to his various clubs and activities. </span></div><div><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">I can't devote the time I want to for this blog and it makes me feel guilty that I can't provide amazing prizes as I don't have the time to hunt down sponsors. It also makes me feel guilty that the mail round here is so awful they lose most parcels I send out (and stuff I get at home - I've been fined and threatened with court action as they lost important docs relating to cars etc). I also feel like I've let you all down and the DT by not being around as often as I should be. </span></div><div><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">With special thanks to everyone who has participated, the DT especially Lee and Lesley for keeping this blog afloat for the past year, sponsors we've had and everyone. Looking through and deleting the next few months challenges inspires me and I really wish I could keep it running.......we might be back in a couple years when I hope to be on maternity leave....so until then I will leave you with this challenge: </span></div><div><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></span></div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Beautiful patterns, colours, and shapes!<br>Use this image to help you complete the recipe challenge! <br></span><div class="separator" style="text-align: start; clear: both;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3YG-3SRa6os/UhE95nsMsSI/AAAAAAAABm0/OJJftzMSviU/s1600/coll1_0476kl.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><font color="#000000"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3YG-3SRa6os/UhE95nsMsSI/AAAAAAAABm0/OJJftzMSviU/s640/coll1_0476kl.jpg" height="488" width="640"></font></a></div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br>You must use:<br><br>Paint<br>Love hearts<br>3 patterened papers<br>Journaling<br><br>We can't wait to see what you create! <br><br></span><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Elisabetta Colavero</span></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: start; clear: both;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-38B14_CwJoo/U-YdbNtXLXI/AAAAAAAAIMI/0NYKOf_Sbbc/s1600/gossip.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><font color="#000000"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-38B14_CwJoo/U-YdbNtXLXI/AAAAAAAAIMI/0NYKOf_Sbbc/s1600/gossip.jpg" height="634" width="640"></font></a></div><div style="text-align: start;"><i style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I immediately fell in love with the bright colors of this picture!</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><i>I followed the recipe: 3 patterned papers, one of which is used front and back, painting </i><i>sprayed </i><i>and with a mask, hearts and handwritten journaling.</i></span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Helene Bogren</span></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: start; clear: both;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7bEn2shBg98/U-ZReNoK77I/AAAAAAAADbc/PamyPdSIosU/s1600/Lego+friends+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><font color="#000000"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7bEn2shBg98/U-ZReNoK77I/AAAAAAAADbc/PamyPdSIosU/s1600/Lego+friends+1.jpg" height="640" width="640"></font></a></div><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: start; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><em>I used yellow and green paint, two sticker hearts and tree patterned papers.

This month your challenge is to create a project around the theme "birthday".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Use the image above for inspiration<br />

This mood board rocked! I loved the colors and the rockabilly type images. However, it was the skulls that spoke to me. I took this picture the first day I was able to leave my house after having the flu. The sweet victory of recovery.

The ephemera kits and their monthly kits are to die for!! I have been wanting to sign up for a while now but being in the UK I thought it would be too expensive.....fear not as shipping is very reasonable!!!!! :D <br />
<br />
Now, onto the challenge - create a project using neon! Will you use neon tape or paint? a neon photo? Will you go white space or grid design?<br />
However you interpret these images use neon and show us what you have created! <br />

<i>For me neon is the eighties... But I kind of like it! Had a hard time finding anything to use though. But one can always use mist and washi! And a cool paper with neon details completed the layout. </i><br />

Last summer was a bit of a nightmare for my youngest son as he spent 12 weeks either in pot or a knee brace. I've wanted to scrap this photo for ages but didn't want to dwell on the sombre part of the injury so neon seemed the perfect outlet for it.<br />

I have a tree and I used the colors from the bright ball ornaments. Last year we were fortunate enough to go to Disney World and Universal Studios in Florida for our Christmas present. My daughter and I loved Seuss Landing, we think we could live there. I used sequins and Stickles for my sparkles. I used 3 different alpha chip fonts as a mask for my title. The staples are holding down my "grass." I don't know if you think I've used fun photos or not, but I know I had fun last year! Enjoy your holidays :)</div>

A quick apology first - this post was meant to go live yesterday but we believe it to be floating around somewhere in Bloggerland - naughty Blogger!</div>

<i>Hello to everybody. This is my first page for Punky Scraps. I was inspired by the festive atmosphere of the image, so I chose a picture of a small party among friends. I set the scene in an ideal city in celebration, with garlands and fireworks.</i></div>

<i>This month's challenge makes me think of fairs, amusement parks, and carnival rides. This picture was taken in 2009 at Navy Pier in Chicago. I am so glad it is summer. It is time to get outside and make every outing an adventure!</i></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><em><span style="font-family: inherit;">I loved the vibrant colors in the inspiration collage and the felling that there are too much of everything. I wanted to transform that to my page and used a photo taken at Tivoli. I also followed the sketch.</span></em></span><br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><em><span style="font-family: inherit;"><o:p>The first thing I thought when I saw the inspiration photo was how much of a sensory overload my 9 year old would find it. He has aspergers syndrome and as such has difficulties filtering noises out so can often be found with his hands covering his ears. I instantly thought of this photo which was taken 5 years ago when we were at a steam fair. The noises were just way too overpowering for him. </o:p></span></em></span></div>
