The first was the October challenge from Lottie Loves Paper, which was to use one of the words Birthday, Party, Celebrate or Cake in a page title. With the photos being from a party, I had mentally titled the page 'Celebrate' even before the challenge popped up. The second was a new challenge from UK Scrappers; the 'Friday Five' from 12 October was to use photos with five or more people, washi tape, a vertical title, some glitter and the theme of a get-together. Finally Gemma Steele hosted a cyber-crop in her Stashbusting Facebook group recently and her first challenge was to use something metal or metallic and/or her sketch. I used her sketch, but it morphed a bit, and have silver letters and mist for my metallic items.
Before our party, I was browsing our original wedding photos, and I was struck by one particular group photo where everyone was throwing confetti over us. It was a more natural photo than most of the others, and one that I decided to replicate at the party with party poppers rather than confetti this time.
As this was a companion page to the last one, I used similar supplies. I took the same hearts cut file but shrank it down and replicated it to make a column of hearts this time. I'd backed it with a 6x6 floral print previously, and now I used the same print in 12x12 for my background. I also used the same letter stickers, doily, puffy hearts and gems as before.
