The Story of Splash Painting

I'm back baby! My big exam is over (at least I hope so.... it's 6 weeks until I find out if I've passed ;-) which means I've got a lot of guilt-free scrapping to accomplish!


Did you know that we often run games on the Jenni Bowlin Mercantile forum? I was disappointed to miss out on the Valentine's Donkey Kong that just finished, but there's nothing to stop me now we've just released our latest game....... Scattergories!


What's it all about you say? Well you choose your letter (or get the random letter generator do it for you) then the challenge is to make a page where all your products begin with that letter. You can be as creative as you like. For example Doris has the letter 'D' and she claimed that staples can also be called "double-pronged metal fasteners"! Sure ;-)


Apart from that the only other rule is to include at least one product that's JBS. And everyone goes into the draw for a $25 JBS Mercantile gift voucher when the challenge ends on March 16th!


Can you guess what my letter was by the way? I'll give you a hint... it's to do with my colour scheme ;-) And are you also wondering what Splash Painting is?! It's a self-invented messy outdoor kid activity where I filled some tubs with watered-down acrylic paint. Then I gave my girls baby-wipes instead of paint brushes. The idea is to get the wipes soaking in paint so you can drip and flick and splash it onto your paper! Totally fun ..... unless you don't like mess....


Speaking of Jenni Bowlin, there was a lovely JBS feature on the Aussie Scrap Source blog this week. A couple of my pages were shown there! Whooop!!

PS. I'm afraid I didn't explain myself very well in my last post and a few of you asked what 'Vine' was. It's an app that's very similar to Instagram, but instead of uploading and sharing photos, you upload looped 6-second videos. All my posts so far have been scrappy related, but I'm sure my kids are going to sneak into a video or two shortly! My user name is 'natalieelph' if you want to look me up.

Blog Hop Winner and other things..

So it's time to draw the winner of my Evalicious Blog Hop prize. I did it in my usual fashion (which is to throw the bunch of entrants at my daughter and for her to randomly pick a number). So the winner is......
comment #28....


Congratulations Jas&#39!!
Email me your shipping address and I'll get your prize out to you ASAP.

And just so you don't think that by my lack of posts around here that I'm not doing anything, here's what I've been up to this week since I've been able to scrap guilt-free..


Yes, I've joined Vine. And I've posted a few videos, including this walk through of my Evalicious Stamp Book where I keep track of my delicious collection of red rubber. My user name is 'natalieelph'. Look me up!


Flourish With a Bling are combining forces with another fabulous Australian manufacturer and I've been crafting up a storm. Here's a little sneak peek. See if you can guess who it is?!


I'm in the process of editing another video tutorial. I'm so excited about this one :-)


And I've been putting my Silhouette to good use - cutting out whole phrases! I can't wait to share this page with you, but with any luck it's going to be quite a while before I can yet ;-)

Hope you're enjoying your weekend,
xxx
