January Challenge: Bling it up!

We hope you rang in the new year safely!  Did you get lots of photos to remember the night by?

To celebrate the new year, we are asking you to use bling on your project life or smashbook spread!  

For this challenge, we asked Kelly Greatrex if she would be our guest designer for January.  We are so pleased she agreed to do it!

I'm a thirty-something, married new mum, currently on maternity leave. I work full-time to support my babe, my crafty hobby and my travelling bug. I've been scrapbooking for 5 years, starting after my month long trip to Spain to complete the Camino de Santiago (It's the only album I've ever completed!) As for the travelling...I've been to Europe - London, Paris, and all across Spain (Barcelona, Madrid, Malaga, Mijas, Santiago de Compestella, Segovia & Toledo are the highlights)and to the Dominican Republic and Cuba, all since 2008.

Here is the card Kelly made for her project life album.  It's beautifully blingy!

You can see more of Kelly's work at The Scrap-Happy Traveller and thank you so much for joining us this month!

December challenge **Anything Goes**

Welcome to our December challenge at Life in Details.  We are expecting this month to be hectic so we are offering the easiest challenge ever!  Anything Goes!!!

Anything Goes with the following super easy restrictions, it must created in the Project Life pocket style scrapping or in a smash book.  Easy peasy as my kids would say.

So lets begin with our December Guest Designer Billie-Jean Beveridge from Have My Cake and Eat it Too!

My name is Billie-Jean Beveridge and I am from sunny Queensland, Australia. I am a proud mum to two little girls, Dakotah and Amber, and am currently undergoing my Bachelor of Nursing. I began scrapping almost 10 years ago after the birth of my eldest and haven't looked back since. I scrap as often as I can and I like to experiment with different styles and techniques, ultimately so long as I get to make a mess and create I am happy. My favourite things to use when I scrap, right now, would be my distressing tool, my Paints/Glimmermists/Inks, Texture Paste and lastly my 3D tape, everything else is a bonus.

What a gorgeous way to preserve such precious memories!

You have until December 31 to link up with us for your chance to be February's Guest Designer!  Can't wait to see what you create!

October challenge winner!

Project Life Guest Designer: Shelby Koehler

We welcome our first guest designer, Shelby!

My name is Shelby Koehler, I have two boys ages 7 and 9 and I started scrapbooking about 7 years ago. I was invited to a home party selling scrapbook supplies and was hooked immediately. I was thrilled to find a creative way to showcase the hundreds of photographs I had taken and to preserve memories for my boys. 
When my youngest went to kindergarten I was presented the opportunity to work at my LSS and 3 years later I am still there designing kits and loving my 'job'.

Here is her fantastic card inspired by October's sketch:

Shelby is creating her travel book using the divided pockets and she is doing an amazing job.  It was seeing this book in person that made me want to give it a try!

Thank you for sharing with us, Shelby!  You can see more of her work on her blog.
