a trip around the world, scrapbook style...

Hi again, I've got just one more catch up post before the year comes to an end ;) this time to recap on the challenges I took part in for the Amazing Race Comp over at the Scrapbooking Top 50 Australia Forum!

It was a lot of fun and in no particular order, here are the countries I visited...

 my layout for Holland featuring one of Chloe's cute Rainbow Splendour Pinwheels from the race kit.

I loved the challenge for Japan and featured some washi tape from D-Lish Scraps, a cute Rainbow Splendour mushroom, the spotty fabric flower is from Burdy's Handmade Embellies and the chevron badge is from Bit's and Pieces created by Marg.

next is my layout for the Africa challenge and I have used one of  Sue's Lovelybug Bit's n Bobs animal print buttons as well as some of my own {scrAp this!} fuzzy felt goodies.

moving onto Antarctica using a gorgeous icy coloured pin created by Ant from A little bit fANTsy! and another one of Vicki's spotty fabric flowers from Burdy's Handmade Embellies .

We also made a stop in Australia and I have used one of Donna's cute Ah Scrap Bottlecap from the kit and also added a cream and white lollipop flower from Charm's Creations.

I loved the trip to Canada and stamped onto one of the foam from A little bit fANTsy! as well as one of Marg's chevron badges from Bit's and Pieces created by Marg.

we had a quick detour along the way to send a letter home to our loved ones - using envelopes, stamps etc on our layouts. I added a paper blossom from Charm's Creations as well as a chevron badge from Bit's and Pieces created by Marg.

another detour, this time using a foreign word on our page - mine is Baba's which means Nana's in Polish and I have used a yellow page runner from Charm's Creations.

This was from the trip to Peru, where we need to use white washing, 

distressing and at least one butterfly on the page.

and one more detour using maps and arrows to help you find your way home. 

 apart from taking part in the race, I also sponsored the trip to Brazil using one of my own {scrAp this!} fuzzy felt flags which were also in the race kit. 

So there it is - finally all caught up with my blog ;)

We're getting ready to go and watch the local fireworks...

Happy New Year!!! I hope 2013 brings you lots of happiness :)
