You and Me - National Scrapbooking Month kit.

Hooligans File Folio Mini Album

Yes I am at it again - turning the file folio into another album. Actually - this one was the idea which

then turned into the You and Me mini album. LOL.

I used the Hooligans level 2 paper pack and the photos of my lovely boys when we visited

the Detroit Zoo. They were fascinated by the butterfly house and all of the

brass animals that they could climb on.

I love all of the pockets for yet more photos.

And yes - again it was more artwork which I submitted to CTMH  - I loved the way it

turned out and obviously they did too :O)

I can feel another mini album coming on  - watch this space LOLOL

Hope you love it too xx

The Many Faces of ADHD scrapbook layout

This is the layout which I made to submit to CTMH to teach at Extravaganza. 

It shows all the pictures of Elliott as he has grown and shows just how much 

he has changed.

The small pull out book hides the journaling and I popped up the main photo with 3D foam 

tape to allow me to get the little book under it.

I rubbed the craft boarders in Versamark ink and then heat embossed using the white embossing powder. I then layered a thin strip of chocolate cardstock behind it to add contrast.

I love the way this layout turned out. Hope you like it as much as I do :O)

Bliss Wedding Wall Hanging

Here is a wooden wall plaque which I bought at Michaels. I used a marker to color in the edges then covered the edges with the pearl paint.

I used the Bliss level 2 paper pack to cover the base and added Vineyard Berry cardstock which I dry embossed with a diagonal pattern - sanded then again dry brushed the pearl paint over it.

I made the ribbon ruffle from the chocolate paper and then covered the join between the paper and cardstock with a section of Kraft Border which I had inked using Chocolate ink.

the large Dimensional Element heart was stamped and the small heart was inked with Vineyard Berry.

Hope you like it :O)

Fanfare Workshop To Go

Here is the last Workshop on the Go for this idea book - the very patriotic Fanfare set. It is perfect for everything Americana and especially July 4th. 

I also love the stamp set which is included (along with buttons & embroidery floss) as it is perfect for party invitations and birthdays & for wonderful hot summer ice-cream filled days :O)

 The 3 cards below are made following the instructions included in the kit - just perfect for those July 4th picnics & get togethers :O)

 This card - made using the colors Cotton Candy, Sweet Leaf,Garnet & Desert Sand  uses the Fanfare WOTG stamp set but puts more of a birthday party theme to it. I also included the stars image from the set Circle Together as an added accent and a flower shaped chocolate button for some textural detail.

 

Hope you like them :O)
