Aifactory Challenge 31

Guess what its Thursday already and that means, its Aifactory Challenge day. 

This week the design team were given some lovely images to use, we were split into teams and given different images to use, to showcase the designs from the Aifactory Vault.  Our challenge was Mother's day.  Now those regular follower's of my blog would know I have Mother's Day covered already with a card or two, so I decided to look beyond the obvious and do a layout.

Mother's day will be a nice challenge for you all, and we would like you to paricipate in atleast one other challenge aswell with your project.
I chose to play along with the Lily Bootoo challenge this month which is spring colours - yellow, pale green and blossom. 

I had a photo in a frame shoved in a corner and thought.. ahh Perfect!  So i used my floral image and made it into a design paper and I also took my image and used it as a template for a diecut flower which i then used as an embellishment!  

The photo is of My mum and sister and myself from a very very long time ago! 
Sorry for the photo quality, my camera didnt want to focus on anything at all in the page!  I do hope you can see the die cuts clearly, I really enjoyed playing with my pazzle machine to create these.  The flower is actually 4 layers deep.  I played with smooch a little bit, I think thats a bit of a learning curve though.. as Im not that thrilled with the outcome!

Now if you are in need of some images to use to complete a Mother's day project head on over to the Vault and grab some Freebies to play with.  I check there so often, as new images are put up very regularly. 
Then head on over to the AiFactory Challenge Blog and link  up your creation.   The prize for the winner will be the image's we got to use for our projects.. and of course the "joy" of winning a challenge!  We all love that.

If you are a member of the Aif forums, Splitcoast stamper gallery, PCP or SNR please upload your photos of your creations and link them with AIF031 so other's can see your work!
