Scrapaneers - November Champions Challenge

Hello all,

Each month, Scrapaneers sets a challenge for the Champions release, based on the learning of the month's tutorials. This month, the theme is Out of Pocket. The requirements for the challenge are to use a pocket and add a cluster. I decided to use one of the layered templates offered as part of November's Champions kit.

My layout:

November Champions Layered Template | Out of Pocket
Jady Day | All of me loves all of you

Such a cool digital layered template. I love these creative plastic pockets.
If you are ever thinking of trying digi out, please head over to Scrapaneers to help you on your journey! And if you do digi already, join Champions for so many fabulous techniques and goodies. :)

Hoping you all have a creative and happy day.

Scrapaneers - November Champions

Hello Everyone, 

This month over at Scrapaneers, November Champions is all about: Out of Pocket, focusing on pocket style scrapping. I don't do a lot of pocket scrapping but I think it could quickly become a new love. This month as well, there are some gorgeous layered templates as part of the subscription which I am looking forward to playing with. But for now, my layout using this month's Champions kit:

Tangie Baxter & Co - Art Journal Pockets Nos. 4 & 5.

Hello Everyone,

Every month, Tangie Baxter & Co release two challenges for Art Journal Pockets and give a free sheet to work on as a bonus.
I'm going to work a little backwards and start with Challenge No.5: Collage.
This is the free sheet you can download, print off and work with if you like:


I decided to go hybrid and printed it off, working on it, adding bits of paper and paint:

It was really enjoyable to get my paints 'inky' again after such a long time not doing so. I cut these into the little pocket sizes and worked on them individually. I love working on this smaller size, it's much easier to pick up and do. Then I placed them on cardstock, re-arranging their original order, and stitched in-between. I did this only because I don't have plastic pockets on hand.

Challenge No 4: A Day In The Life Of You.
The sheet on offer for free:
