SOS October Pick a Side Challenge - Pizza in Bath, UK

It's time for this month's Pick a Side Challenge from the Scrap Our Stash Blog!  All rules, prize info, and more inspiration can be found on the blog!



I chose the sketch on the LEFT for my Design Team layout and your inspiration and used photos from a wonderful day on our vacation to London last year. We first visited Bath, and then Stonehenge - it was a truly amazing day - and the pizza was pretty good too!


You can see that I used lots of twine and tags in my layout - so much fun!

Here you can see the TAB I used too - ( ABOVE)

October SOS Cartoon Inspired Challenge "English Breakfast"

This month's Cartoon Inspired Challenge from the Scrap Our Stash Blog was so much fun to create - besides the Sketch and Cartoon for your inspiration - we Challenge you to hunt through your stash and use something that starts with each of the letters in the word CASPER and you much include the color ORANGE !

Here is my Design Team Inspiration Layout for you:
We did a search on-line to see where we could find a "REAL" English Breakfast, near our flat, while we were in London on vacation last October and this place was terrific - very much a "local" joint - great reviews and the lady who took our order and yelled "toast" when it was ready was great, as was the food!

If any of you have seen the Elton John movie Rocket Man - you many remember seeing this place (without the curtains) in the movie.  Imagine our surprise when we found out months later that this was the place where Elton John and Bernie Taupin first met - sooo cool!!

For the CASPER part of the challenge I used:
C -Camera, Corrugated Cardstock
A -American Crafts Thickers, Airplane
S -Striped paper, Sequins, Scalloped edges, Simple Stories
P - Pin (I love London), Peacock Feather and Picket Fence Stains
E - Ebony Black and English Mustard Nuvo Drops, Eyelets
R -Ranger Distress Stains 

Here are some close ups for you:
