Here is a canvas which I decorated with the Footloose level 2 paper and matching embellishments.

I also added some of the lace flowers and buttons and dimensional hearts from the Stella WOTG.

I pleated the Sweetleaf ribbon around the edge of the canvas and held them in place

with Sorbet brads.

The photo is from my daughter Robyn's 2006 graduation.

Hope you like it xx

Florentine Flip Flap Album

So here are the photos of the gorgeous Florentine Flip Flap album which I am teaching as a class.

As you can see from the photos below - the album just keeps unfolding, and unfolding, and unfolding LOL

So there you have it - hope you like it as much as I do - I was thrilled with the finished result and I know my one group of ladies is excited to make it with a 2nd group making it at the end of the month.

If you would like to make it too - please email me or call me for details :O)

Cruisin' scrapbook double page layout

This was the fun Cruisin' double layout which I taught today to my lovely group of new Scrapbookers :O)

We heat embossed the car using the red embossing powder then 'popped' the car up on 3D foam tape.

Cranberry and black ribbon added a textural detail and the black brads held it in place.

We colored the star using the black marker and made it super shiny using Liquid Glass.

I chose the stamp set Eclectic Edges and stamped the thinnest boarder around the edge of the pages using Cranberry ink - it is a small modern flower design but used here it almost looks like gears or bicycle chain.

My ladies loved the layout - hope you do too :O)

Lucy Workshop on the go wall hanging.

This super cute wall hanging was made from the piece which was left over from my "Welcome" banner.

I made the 3D flower using the 1 1/4" punch and the sentiment and the butterfly come from the Workshop on the go. The rub-on bouquet of flowers all was in the WOTG along with the bitty sparkles.

The Sweet Leaf grosgrain ribbon is just perfect with this kit 

Hope you like it :O)
