November 2015 Guest Designer
Sanderijn de Bruin from Netherlands





Hello everyone!

Anna Wiśniewska here with you today!!

It has been such a pleasure this month so far
to look at all your wonderful creations
inspired by the cosy November mood board,
designed by Tiphanie Barbreau {France}.

The amount of talent that you share each month
never stops to amaze us!!

I have the pleasure today to introduce to you our
November Guest Designer!
 

But first, please view our current challenge *HERE*
& the mid-month reveal based on the same challenge *HERE*



Her unique style & excellent eye for details earned her
the 1st place rank in our September challenge,
& today she's back to inspire us with another amazing creation,
this time based on the November mood board.

Sanderijn de Bruin {Netherlands}


Let's get to know Sanderijn a little better
 
"My name is Sanderijn de Bruin & I live in The Netherlands with my husband & 6 year old daugther. She is my biggest inspiration. I love to use mixed media in my scrapbookpages. I mostly work with stencils, modelling paste, mica powders & all kinds of inks & sprays. I am always challenging myself to do different projects, different things I normally wouldn't do, use colors I wouldn't choose myself in the first place, use products I never used before, to extend my horizon & to develop more techniques. I love to work with moodboards. They are so inspiring, challenging & fun to work with! You can find my blog here my Pinterest here & my Instagram here."



Now, let's see the beautiful layout that the November mood board inspired Sanderijn to create!



Sanderijn sprayed the whole page with white ink, to create a "snow" effect. Isn't that wonderful?


By using a stencil with light paste and mica powder "pale silver" she created twinkling lights in the background. The pearls strengthen that effect.


The blue ink sprayed here and there on the page, and chipboard pieces embossed with blue shimmering embossing powder, added the blue touch on Sanderijns' page.



Thank you so much Sanderijn for being our Guest Designer this month
& sharing this gorgeous piece of art with us!

 
Please leave Sanderijn some love in the comments
& visit her blog HERE to see more details on how she created
this layout as well as more of her outstanding creations.

We hope that you will be inspired to play along
with our November mood board!
Like every month, we have AMAZING PRIZES up for grabs

Challenge closes Monday, 30th November!

Hello everyone!
It's Anna Wiśniewska here with you today!!

In Europe September is a month of calming down.

Her use of the love letter theme is perfect.

August 2015 Guest Designer
Jayne Morgan from Canada





Hello sweet Scrap Around The World fans! 

It's Anna Wiśniewska here with you today!

August in Europe used to be a month of warmth, sun, vacation & voyages.
This year August is also a month of the highest temperature in this part 
of the world, reaching almost 40 degrees.  Our August mood board, 
created by Jaya Raghuvanshi from India, is just perfect for sunny, summery 
pages & recording beautiful memories from vacation getaways & holidays.

You have shared many amazing projects so far, & all of us here
at SATW are looking forward to seeing more of your creations.

In the meantime, I'm very happy to introduce to you our August Guest Designer!
  
 First, please view our current challenge *HERE* 
& our mid-month reveal based on the same challenge *HERE*.

this time based on the August mood board...

Jayne Morgan {Canada}


Let's get to know Jayne a little better!

"My name is Jayne Morgan & although I was born in England,
I have been living in Canada with my husband & 2 girls for the last 15 years.
I started scrapbooking approximately 8 years ago &, over the years, have become 
more & more passionate about this fantastic hobby!  I'm inspired each day 
by my family & the anticipation of scrapping those everyday moments. 
 As for my style of scrapbooking, I don't like to be restricted to one specific 
genre & therefore find myself alternating between clean and simple pages
& the need to dabble in a little mixed media.  
A big thanks to the SATW team for this awesome opportunity 
& the abundance of inspiration you provide each month."

You can visit Jayne on her blog  *HERE* & on Pinterest *HERE*.


Now, let's all look at Jayne's gorgeous take on our mood board!


 Jayne very beautifully captured so many elements of the mood board!
Her layout has a traveler's theme, but reaches deeper into the child's need 
to explore nature & discover the world


There is so many sweet, little details representing the mood board! 
Look at this tiny bicycle!


I love this quote - so true!


Thank you so much Jayne for participating in our challenges
& agreeing to be our Guest Designer this month.
We were all in love with your June layout 
& this one is also absolutely fantastic!

June 2015 Guest Designer
Arnlaug Koppang from Norway





Hello everyone!  It's Nicole Doiron here with you today!!

June is my favorite month of the year
(perhaps it has a little to do with the fact that it's my birthday month ;P)
& the Scrap Around the World June mood board,
designed by Veera Saarivuo from Finland,
is also a favorite of mine with its lovely pastel hues & sweet flowers.
You have shared amazing projects so far,
& all of us at SATW are looking forward to seeing more.


In the meantine, I'm very happy to introduce you to our June Guest Designer!

Snag if you have been our GDT!

First, please view our current challenge *HERE* 
& our mid-month reveal based on the same challenge *HERE*.

Having been the winner of our April 2015 challenge, 
she was asked to come back this month
to inspire us with another layout in her beautiful style,
this time based on the June mood board...

Arnlaug Koppang {Norway}



Let's get to know Arnlaug a little better:

"Hello!  I am Arnlaug Koppang, a 33 year old 'girl' from a small island 
on the west coast of Norway. I'm married & we have 2 sweet girls & a cute little puppy.
 I work full time as a social worker so the days are busy. I mainly make 
layouts but sometimes I try out other projects. I love scrapping because it's 
a hobby for both memory keeping & creating art. When I scrap, 
my mind relaxes & it takes me away from the busy everyday life. 
I am a scrapper with a lot of variety with many different styles. 
But I have to say I'm having a blast when I'm playing with mixed media :-) 
You can visit my blog at Arnlaugshobby.blogspot.com"


Take a look at Arnlaug's gorgeous take on our mood board!


Arnlaug was able to capture many elements of the mood board,
the soft colors & graphic simplicity with a touches of white.
The resin flowers are so sweet!


I love Arnlaug's attention to details... even a simple thing as 
a metal staple makes a big difference! 


Stenciling with white paste adds just the right amount of texture on the background.


Thank you so much Arnlaug for participating in our challenges &
for agreeing to be our Guest Designer this month.
We were wowed by your April winning layout & we also absolutely love this one!

Please leave Arnlaug some love in the comments
& visit her blog HERE to see more details on how she created 
this layout as well as more of her outstanding creations.

For any of you who haven't linked your project yet,
we hope that you will be inspired to play along & link up soon!
