Clocks

I thought this was a fun challenge over at http://soul-scrappers.ning.com

It our Song /Lyric challenge offered by Deb. Her song this month is Clocks by Coldplay.

 I wasn't really that familiar with this song. So I decided to use the title CLOCKS .

Here is my submission for her challenge:
Clocks

 

Moving right along I have been busy making Christmas cards, yes those little cards that go out every year.

Actually I  have been having fun this making them.

Here are a few I have made so far.


 

Thanks for  stopping by until next time have a wonderful day.

Hugs

Amazing Race Stop 6 South America

You have three check in options for South America.
Either Brazil, Peru or Colombia.

Chose wisely as once you've checked you can not change your mind.
However you will not be disappointed ,as if you read below you will see that both all three of the countries are equally amazing. Seats are limited so put your name down quickly for tickets to the country of your choice.
(Once all the seats have been filled, more seats will be opened!)
Each country offers a different set of criteria to scrap. You will only scrap ONE country on this stop!
 My pick is Peru.


criteria to be include on your layout for this country are as follows:

1. At least one butterfly to represent the huge number of butterfly species in Peru.
2. White washing of embellies or paper using Gesso or a white medium to show the beautiful snow capped Andes mountains in Peru.
3. Distressing in aid of the ancient lost city of Machu Picchu



From Paris with Love....

Novembers Inspiration will come from the Movie Poster....'From Paris with Love'
(Suggested by Jane Howden)
Extra Criteria
1pt = White Background/Base Card stock
2pts = The word 'Love' somewhere on your page
3pts = An 'Eiffel Tower' image/embellie
 
 
Here is my take on this Month poster.
City of Love
These photos were taken in LAs Vegas.
Here is where Jennifer Spend her 21st birthday.
Happy Birthday Jennife.
Love Mom.
