June 2014 Guest Designer Fiona Paltridge of Australia!





Hello to you all!
Please view our current challenge HERE & our 
2nd reveal based on the same challenge HERE.

Today we welcome back the winner of our April 2014 Challenge,
Fiona Paltridge of Australia, as our June Guest Designer!

  
Hello! My name is Fiona. I live in a small country town in South Australia.
 I am an Early Childhood Educator by profession & recently my two adult
 children have both moved away, so I'm finding I have much more time 
on my hands to spend in my studio. 

When I'm not there I can often been found in a bush camp somewhere with our
 camper trailer - scrapbooking!  Layouts are my preferred projects but I also
 enjoy creating "Beyond The Page" projects from time to time.

 I am a lover of watercolours & texture & recently I've enjoyed experimenting 
with layering.  My style is a tad messy as is my work space!
 You can find my blog  *HERE*


Fiona has used our current mood board HERE for her inspiration


I love the grey background Fiona has used!
 It really makes her other elements pop!!


Just look at those gorgeous layers!!!


Fabulous use of textures too...


Brilliant page!
Thank you so much Fiona for creating such a wonderful
page especially for Scrap Around The World!

Please leave some comment love for Fiona.

I hope Fiona has inspired YOU to get working on our June
mood board, today - time is running out & we have amazing 
prizes up for grabs so get creating & upload your layout soon!

Challenge closes on Monday 30th June 2014

**Have you entered our FACEBOOK giveaway yet?**
We have a HUGE prize up for grabs over there!!
