Hi there!  It's that exciting time again!!  Time to showcase the very best of the best!!!  Thank you so much for a phenomenal month with 103 entries!  WOW!!  We all LOVED visiting you all, commenting on your beautiful creations & being inspired by YOU!  Don't you just LOVE the circle of inspiration & how what goes around comes around?!  Well I certainly do!!  THANK YOU so much to you all for supporting Scrap Around The World!!!

There are TEN PLACE WINNERS each month as well as a random prize winner, which sounds like A  LOT but when there are SO MANY ENTRIES it means that our winner, features & finalists are THE TOP 10%!  I have also noticed that the STANDARD OF ENTRIES here at SATW is TOP NOTCH.  You all make a HUGE EFFORT and it shows!!  I'm glad that the prizes are motivating everyone out of their comfort zones & into major mojo inspirational spheres!!

--------------------------------------------

Now onto our HUGE NEWS!  This month - April 2014 - is our  TWELFTH MONTH of being operational - which means we are soon to be ONE YEAR OLD!  Next month - May 2014 - we are having our EPIC ANNIVERSARY EVENT where we are focusing on finding our 2014 EPIC WINNERS for our first year gone as well as featuring all our fabulous EPIC SPONSORS throughout the month!

HOW OUR EPIC COMPETITION NEXT MONTH WILL WORK!

WE HAVE TEN FANTASTIC PRIZES - ALL OF EQUAL VALUE - 
TO AWARD TO OUR TEN EPIC WINNERS, EACH OF WHOM 
WILL BE CHOSEN BY ONE OF OUR TEN GUEST JUDGES.

NINE OUT OF TEN OF OUR PRIZES will be awarded to our PAST TOP TEN WINNERS, FEATURES & FINALISTS from the past year {provided that enough of them participate - which surely they will!} & ONE PRIZE WILL BE OPEN TO A NEW WINNER - who has NEVER been featured on our Wall of Fame!

This way EVERYONE CAN PLAY & WE WILL END UP DISCOVERING

FINALLY WE HAVE A FOLLOWERS GADGET!!  
Please show your support by adding yourself as a follower in our LEFT SIDE-BAR! 
 Starting from May 2014 YOU NEED TO BE A FOLLOWER TO PLAY!!
I had problems adding the followers gadget as it DOES NOT COME STANDARD
any longer, with any Google+ affiliated blog, so I had to work out how to add it despite
 it no longer being on offer easily.

----------------------------------------------

Now here is last month's mood board to remind you of what our winners had as their inspiration.
Our winners come from 7 different countries around the world this month!


Again we had a RESOUNDING WINNER for March -


Anna Rogalska from Poland!


It is easy to see why this layout came out tops.
 It has that stand-out WOW factor!

Now onto our FEATURES!



2nd place goes to Debbie Burns - USA



This layout is so seamless - everything just blends in so beautifully
 & Debbie's use of tulle to soften things even further is amazing!



3rd place goes to Jelissa Mei from Singapore!



Jelissa's layout is light, bright & beautiful with stunning background
 mixed media work that makes for a beautifully blended page.



4th place goes to Elpimpi from Poland!


The darker tones here really make this layout evocative
 & the soft base & inclusion of lace make it so romantic!



5th place goes to Stephanie Papin of France!



This white base with such delicate black contrast touches
 & pink highlights make for a dramatic yet soft & beautiful layout.




Now onto our 5 Finalists!




6th place goes to Dorotka Dolega from France!


Simple but perfect & the paint spattering &
 clear gems make this layout beyond beautiful!



7th place goes to Romy Veul - Netherlands


The photo, the title, the beautiful doilies & punching as well as 
the lovely pattern matching make this page wonderful!



8th place goes to Maie Rowe of USA!


The very sweet photo & bold simplicity of this layout,
as well as the funky mixed media work make it awesome!!



9th place goes to  Rikki Graziani from Australia!


Talk about prettiness overload!  Right down to 
the Eiffel Tower!!  Just BEAUTIFUL!!



10th place goes to Sarah Groen of New Zealand!


Every detail here enhances the photo & the mood as per our board!
