Totalpapercrafts May kit # 2

These pages I designed using Karen's kit #2 for this month. I had a go at making a pin board effect for the background. The flower embellishment is made from Wow powder, I am loving this product and have made myself a fabulous ring using this mould.

 
The papers in the kit come from the Kaisercraft Charlottes Dream collections and come with a Prima alphabet.
 
With the scraps I had left I designed this layout, using some more Wow powders and moulds for the buttons. The tag is a Spellbinders die and the "smile" stamp is from Autumn Leaves. The bunting dies are from Stampin'Up as is the Finishing Touches edgelits on the top and bottom of the page. The flowers are a Sizzix set and the doily Spellbinders. I used a few pearls from my stash on both pages.

Happy National Scrapbooking Day

Today I am spending it the best way in the company of over 30 lovely crafty friends. They may not all be scrapbooking, some are card making and some will be doing their wonderful altered art pieces but it does not matter...its playing with paper and glue,being creative and having a fabulous time doing it is all the matters.

I do have a page to show you today, photos were taken at the retreat I went to recently.

 
Papers and stickers are all from the For The Record Documented 2 range and the flowers we made at retreat using twine and cork, looks great on this page.
 
 
Have a fabulous weekend...bank holiday for us in the uk and the weathers looking great....I hope you get some time to craft
