Summer 2014 photography scavenger hunt

June 02, 2014 0 Comments
Maria Ontiveras over at Gallo Organico is running her summer photography scavenger hunt again this year. It's great fun for photographers and not and adds fun to days out. Here is the list of things to photograph this summer:

1. A sign welcoming people to your home town (or a nearby town)
2. A garden gnome
3. Birds on a wire
4. A group of tourists
5. A rack of post cards
6. An urban street scene
7. A rural landscape
8. A tattoo on a person
9. A bakery
10. A photo bomb (someone found lurking in the background of photo; the lurker may have intended to disrupt the picture or may be doing it unintentionally, but the background lurker is a surprise to the photographer)
11. A horn
12. A mascot
13. A sunrise
14. A parade
15. A juggler
16. A sign in a language other than English
17. A lamp post
18. A water fall
19. A public garden
20. A bus (not a car, truck, lorry, camper or RV) with a picture painted on its sides.
21. A photograph of you with something representing the season (recognizing that the season will be Winter for our friends in the southern hemisphere). Note: you may not use a substitute for this item.
If you find something on the list too difficult, you may substitute one of the following items for anything on the list, except for Item #21:
Alternative A: A kite, hot air balloon or blimp
Alternative B: A bird house


You can link up via your blog or instagram and once a month on the site.

Happy Hunting x

Missing in action

I know it's been a while but I am busy doing university stuff at the moment so not been doing any scrapping or pretty much anything really. I am enjoying the reading but not doing well on the essay writing front.

I gave a draft of the first half of my essay to a colleague to critique and it didn't fair well. As a consequence my first essay is well overdue and I am having a melt down .......... I need to get it done in the next week and then start my second essay so I'll pop back with an update in due course. Until then ..............

Last fling

Still loving my Scraptastic kit and so desperately want to kill it before the next one arrives. The April kits were gorgeous and it was difficult to chose one but I did and this is the one I went for after much deliberation - the worth wondering kit


and just had to have the matching stamp set

So before I get my head down and start writing my first essay for uni, I thought I would rattle off one more layout from the March kit and here it is.


The first of my pages from my trip to Harry Potter World with Team B. I'm going with a theme of stars and book page papers for these layouts to pull them all together.

Thanks for looking.

I am loving my first Scraptasic kit. I am not a quick scrapper so I have only managed one layout so far
