P 4 Penguins

Todays layout was the left overs from a very very old kit, I think the papers were Sassafrass Lass.....but dont quote me!!! The alphabet was from my stash and the rubons were from the same collection as the paper. Love my new Stampin Up! sizzix dies Fun Flowers....the white layer was some white DCWV chipboard which cut beautifully. The flower centres were also inc the kit..they are brads but look like flower buttons. Journaling label is Maya road.

Another couple of layouts completed last night...I am on roll!!



Wall Hanging

In this months class we did a wall hanging, based on one I did last year at a ATDML retreat.  I used Sizzix dies and Nestabilities together with Artsylicious flocked cardstock and Doodlebug crushed velvet cardstock. The "Love" title was made from Thickers chipboard alphabets and I covered them in glossy accents. The hearts have been stamped with tiny detail stamps and then punched out with my Stampin'Up tiny heart punch and coated with glosy accents.  Lastly, I added some Prima flowers and made the hanging out of black velvet ribbbon.

Who would have belived we would have snow in NOVEMBER!!!!

Keep warm and dry

21st Birthday

I had to break into some lovely virgin 12x12 sheets of this fab Crate cardstock to make a card so I promised myself I would use the rest to make a page and not just put it all back in the draw!! I love Crate its so lovely and thick and doublesided which is a bonus! I had stickers to go with the range as well, so this is what I came up with.

I used a Bazzill stitiching template to do the pattern across the bottom and the flourish is a Sizzix die. The flower centres are just some small flower punches. The date stamp if from Imaginisce, everything else is Crate Cowgirl collection.

Pretty in Pink

Somehow these papers ended up in my basket after a quick trip to Sugar and Spice on Friday...amazingly enough..lol!! Still trying to use older photos and I remembered I had this photo of Emma which needed some tweeking on picasa, its still not perfect by any means but I can live with it and would rather have it in her album than not used at all. Everything is My Minds Eye, the title was done with American Craft thickers and the brads& buttons were from my stash. The flourish and the corners are sizzix and sizzlet dies.

Madeira

Hope you all had a great weekend....what a great Wimbledon final yesterday, although I did wonder if I was ever going to get the dinner on!! lol.

Todays layout is another kit from Totalpapercrafts, the papers are from Kaisercraft and I think they go with this very old photo of my in-laws really well. Sadly neither of them are with us anymore and I dont have very many photos to scrap. Crochet flowers are very in at the moment and karen has a great selection. The title has been made with American Craft Thickers... I love these alphabets, very versatile and they come in a range of fonts and colours. I did the swirls slightly differently using a Sizzix die.
