October Stache Smash Bash Hop | Give a Girl a Blog

Welcome to another hop with the SMASHING SISTERS. It feels like forever since we had the last one huh? The girls and I decided to do them every other month, OF COURSE one would think that would make you more organised right? WRONG, not me, I’m a leave it till last minute sort of girl, aka just did this today, and had more time than I thought I had being that we were going off Lizzie our hosts timeline and I’m in Australia and she is all the way over the ocean, so while I rushed, turns out I made it with enough time to spare.

So welcome to our…

And if you have come from the gorgeous Krista HERE… and her amazing smashing page that has no doubt left you inspired and wanting more [she's a tuff person to be after with her amazing talent] then you are on the right track. If not you can start at our organiser this month and our head sister this month I guess you could say, my GS, Lizzie HERE..

Now onto my smashing page, it has been a while since I did a smash page, and it was fun to get back into it again, sometimes you forget just how much you miss doing something you hadn’t done in a while. I decided to use my Blue Retro Smash Book [I bought another one because I wasn't overly happy with my first smash attempts, it was the first book I used, WHAT? Don't act like you wouldn't do it too hehe!] All you Australian girls can get yours HERE… at Polka Dot Creative.

I had to do this page with that photo, it’s so funny and so matching that you would almost think I got Bowzie to pose just for this page, but nope I asked her to smile actually lol. It was taken some time last year, and that is chocolate all over her face, Kira taught her if you hold your Easter eggs near the heater they melt and taste yummy, problem is, the mess left behind all over her face. And after telling them several times not to, Bow walked into me and the conversation went a little like….

Bow did you melt your eggs in front of the heater again….
No……
Are you sure?…..
Yes

I lifted her to the mirror, her face had BUSTED written all over it, then her cheeky grin.

WHAT I USED : I used a bit of this and that and OH that too. Some Echo Park stickers, Amy Tangerine stickers and alphas, butterfly punch, wooden birds and stars from Studio Calico, Tape from Angie Delarie and other bits. NOTICE the mustache I added the the old cobber, haha. Very suiting if you as me? They were in a bunch of things from Norma [thank you].

Next on your stop is the amazing Angie and the owner of Angie Delarie and the girl that designed the amazing giveaway for us sisters! Check her out HERE…
