Dukes Farms Layouts: Shimelle's online crop part one

Ok so it's been two weeks since Dukes Farm and I've realised I've not actually shown you any of the layouts I scrapped! While we were away Shimelle held an online crop over the whole the weekend with a number of challenges, talk about perfect timing! 

The first challenge was to use one of the previous weekly challenges to make a layout. These were to scrap a selfie, make a monochromatic layout, use hearts or globes, or to mix old and new stash. I decided to opt for hearts with a mixture of products from an older Dear Lizzy range (Lucky Charm) and a new(er) collection (Fine & Dandy) and scrapped a photo of a future crafter in the making. 

I used some of Gemma's gorgeous Heidi Swapp Texture paste through a stencil for my hearts, I think I definetly need to invest in some of this! 

Next I scrapped a layout for her Scrap something you value challenge. I decided to scrap a photo I had been carrying around for some time, the last photo I took of Buster. I chose this as I will always value the time we spent with him and the love he gave us. 

I used papers from Amy Tangerine's Stitched collection. There was a cut apart which said Never Stop Loving, and I used this as part of my title. 

I'll be back, hopefully soon, with the other layouts I made for the crop.
