Time to read

My second layout for challenge over at Paper Issues (Friends and Fans) facebook page.
My name is Margaret and I am a reader!!!   The top photo shows books lined up ready to be read (confession - I have more in another room) and I am currently reading Obsession by Jonathan Kellerman which seemed quite appropriate when I saw the title and description of this challenge.
Twitterpated - Create a paper project about something you are obsessed with or make a layout about something or somebody you are obsessed with.
In another ironic moment ABC news on-line just published an article From crime fiction to true crime - why we cant get enough of the genre.   I have added extracts of that article to my page.   On the tag I have written: I like most genres of books, except Sci-Fi, Fantasy etc. My favourite genre would be crime! Is it because I am the daughter of a policeman?  I am also obsessed by crime shows - on Investigation & Discovery and Crime Channel.  I like to solve or try to solve the story line - yes, the idea of a puzzle appeals to me.
I called the layout TIME TO READ as during this Coronavirus isolation I should have more time to read as well as create, cook and generally clean!!!
Can you see my fingerprints on the layout?
Thank  you looking, (Detective) Margaret.

January Cyberchallenge - punched flowers.

Image
Images:(c)1990-2010 Stampin'Up(r) Artwork:Margaret L Crawford Our INKlings cyberchallenges have began for 2010. Tonight our leader, Jayne is setting the challenges. Our first challenge is to use SU punches to make a paper flower and use it on a card, scrapbook page or 3D item. I have used the round scallop punch (each flower has 3 punched scallops), cut a small way into each scallop and then pushed back to create a 3-D effect then I added a rhinestone brad to the centre of each flower. I used my markers to colour the leaves and then spritzed with water before adding to card. Challenge 1 completed.

Time stands still

Here is another layout I have created recently.  I have decided to post it for a challenge at ARTastic - I hope they allow more than one entry as I have already done one layout for their May challenge - Scrap the Girls. This photo was taken when I met up with friends that I attended TAFE with many years ago.  We completed the Advanced Needlecraft Certificate at Hornsby TAFE and became firm friends during this time.   But as life goes on we lost contact - until Facebook got us back together 20 years later!..  They caught the train up and we had lunch and much catch up at my home before a walk on the beach.   Again here is the inspiration photo at ARTastic, the criteria Girls Only. I was further inspired by a layout by Emily Pitt found on   Debbie Hodge  from 2013 that I found whilst blog surfing. Thank you Debbie I have left some thanks for you on your blog. Thank you for looking, Margaret.
