Fearless

Today, a layout I completed for a challenge at Soul Scrappers, I hope I have made it in time to submit.  The challenge was the word "Fearless".
One of the things I love about travel is that you get to do some things that you may not otherwise do when you at home in your own country.  Several years ago I was in USA - and one the places that I loved was the Grand Tetons in Wyoming.   Now, one of the optional extras was a float down the Snake River - sounds idyllic does it not?  Haha of course it was not.  Here I am kitted out ready to join the cruise in a rubber boat hanging on for dear life.  The views were magnificent and I even let go enough to take some photos. 
What else have I braved (or been fearless in saying yes I will do that) in my past - let me see - abseiling down cliffs (another story all together, let me just say not for the fainthearted), rock climbing (the real thing not in a purpose built room), helicopter rides (loved this so much I have taken several over the years), so much more and more stories to tell.
One day maybe I will be fearless enough to take a balloon ride but not sure about jumping out of a plane!!!
Thanks for looking, Margaret
I am not fearless. I get scared plenty. But I have also learned how to channel that emotion to sharpen me. Bear Grylls

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.
