Our Summer Scrap-cation is in full swing at Scrap-Friendzy and we are having a blast!!! There have been some amazing challenges and fun games and chatter going on over there and we'd love to have you join us!

Today, we are kicking off our Summer SURVIVOR Game!! The 1st Challenge has been posted HERE Everyone is welcome to join! Contestants will have until midnight(cst) Friday, July 3 to upload your entry into the gallery.

Here is the example page I did for this challenge:

The challenge is all about vintage/ shabby chic inspiration! I used a piece of 12x12 cardboard that was packing for a recent scrappy purchase!! I just tore off the first layer on one side and let the corregated part show. I love the vintage feel it gives my page! Other vintage elements that I used were lace, ribbon, pearls, paper flowers/vines, an old button that I've had forever in my stash and ofcourse, I had to used my fluid chalk! I also did the krinkled paper technique on some of my paper. Here are some close-ups:
