More Than Words in January

Happy New Year everyone! Welcome to a wonderful new year of scrappy fun!

You might have a sore head today from too much celebrating but the team at More Than Words are keen to give you a creative kick-start with our new challenge! The inspirational challenge word this month is Celebrate and the creative challenge word is Bling. Here's what I was inspired to create:


I was inspired not only by the challenge board, but by the movie "Arrival". If you've seen it you will know what I'm talking about. If not, I won't spoil it for you. I can only say that I sat in the cinema with scrapping ideas running around in my head - lol!


My circles are made using Tinby Designs Colour Crush. I'm a  bit of a Colour Crush tragic - I can't stop using it!


I think my interpretation of the word "Celebrate" is obvious. For the creative part of the challenge I added some (very old!) sparkly alphas and stars as well as some rhinestones for my "Bling".



One reason we chose the word "Celebrate" as our challenge word, apart from the fact that many people have just celebrated the New Year, is that More Than Words is turning one! Our very first challenge began on January 1st, 2016. We have loved watching all the amazing entries come in over the year. I sure hope you find time this month to join in our challenge on our first birthday! You can find the details here.


Happy scrappin'!

  11. This has to be my all time fave of yours! And that's a big call, because I've had so many along the way. When I try to unpack what appeals so much, I think it's the fresh, fun, funky, feel to it - unique and with such a happy vibe. Corker page :D

  14. Heather I love your colors! And always showing different things to each other, I was very busy these months trying to reorganize the routines of my family so I have missed them very much !, I promise to be this year closer to More than words and clearly continue looking at your beauties of works. In my city it's also summer at Christmas and New Year so it's cool to see your layouts that are as hot as mine! You inspired me and I loved that circle stamp! Mariela

    Heather Amo tus colores! y siempre mostrando cosas distintas entre si, estuve muy ocupada estos meses intentando reorganizar las rutinas de mi familia asi que los he extrañado muchisimo!, prometo estar este año mas cerca de More than words y claramente seguir mirando tus bellezas de trabajos. En mi ciudad tambien es verano en Navidad y año nuevo asi que es fresco ver tus layouts que son tan calurosos como los mios! Me has inspirado y amé ese sello de circulos!. Mariela
