A new South African challenge site



I was SO pleased to discover a new site today, it's called Scrap Africa and is a site to help showcase South African talent (scrappers from other countries can also take part though!). I am so pleased that someone has taken the initiative and established such a site!!

Their first challenge is to create a layout based on a sketch, here is my layout!!




The gorgeous little gal featured in my layout is my sweet niece Jenna who turns 1 on the 26th of this month. Isn't she just too cute for words!!!

Here is the sketch that my layout is based on:


I also wanted to share some other info with you!!

The product I used on my page is from a range called Generations by Simple Stories. I purchased these items and a load of other stuff from Scrapbook Studio, a store owned by my friend Cariena. They give great service and have a lovely range of products, so for my fellow South African scapppers, "check it out!" Cariena is also hosting some amazing give-aways on her blog, I urge you to drop by and give her a visit!!

I need to be off now, time to start with supper!! See you soon :)

This is really a stunning layout Rene. I just love the paper combination and colours that you used. And the way you did those circles above the photos really look stunning. Thank you for taking part in our first sketch challenge.
