This is an unusual page that I enjoyed making, it is of my son and his python Achilles.

I will give the paper information soon

My First Lot Of Cards

I am not a huge card maker at all, but I thought I would give it a go. Here are the 3 creations I came up with.

Not much I know, but it's a good start I think. I may end up with a massive pile of these and not enough people to hand them out to...lol

Lovin The Lush

I think this paper was made for me, and the design came so naturally. I just absolutely love love love it.

I have already started my next LO using this collection, and so far that it is looking great (to me anyway)

Supplies Used: Paper - Kaiser "Lush" Alphas - Quickutz Embellishments and Other - Nappy Wipes, Glimmermist, Basic Grey Buttons, DMC Thread, Kaiser Pearls, Prima Cherry Blossom Branch

Peek A Boo

I just love this photo of my son, and  until now I was never able to find the right paper to be able to scrap it. This collection just seem to fit it perfect. I a sort of happy with the results, but may raise the peek a boo title away from the photo just a little.

 

Supplies Used: Paper - My Mind's Eye "So Sophie" Alphas - Thickers, Bosscut Embellishments and Other - Basic Grey Buttons, Kaiser Rub-ons, Prima Pearls

Well I think I spoke a little soon about a blockage, I done this last night while I sat with a friend who was scrappin at my house.  

Not sure that I am happy with the outcome just as yet, think it may need a little tweaking. For this sketch I decided not to use the small photo, there just didn't seem the room to fit it in.

Supplies Used: Paper- Pink Paisley "Starlight Collection" Alphas - Pink Paisley "Starlight" Alpha Stickers Embellishments and Other - Unknown Chipboard Stars Basic Grey Buttons, Unknown Ribbon, Glimmermist

Another Fun Sketch Completed

At the moment I am just enjoying taking my time to finish a layout. I think I am in the beginning of a blockage.

For this page I used my nappy wipe technique for the alpha. I needed to see that it worked. The alpha dies I used were from Bosskut and when I ran them through my machine I had to roll them a few times to make sure it went through both the nappy wipe and the jac paper. I think they came out fantastic, but that is just me.

The photo in this LO is one of my absolute favorites, every thing about it I just love.

The Papers for this LO are available at my ebay store.

Supplies Used: Paper- My Mind's Eye "So Sophie" Alphas - Bosskut Embellishments and Other - Prima Flowers, Prima Felt Flourish, Assorted Button, Leather Glimmermist, Nappy Wipe, Jac Paper

Another Tutorial

Here is a tutorial I have made on making flourishes out of nappy wipes. It is something that I enjoy making.

My First Tutorial Video

I started creating embellishments out of tin foil, and I just love how they look. I made the tutorial basically to see what it came out like, and to share how I did them.

I also made these round ones for a swap I am participating in at the moment at Scrapbooking Top 50.

Try them, they look great on pages and cards, I have just made some out of the Tim Holtz Elegant Flourish, they look fantastic.

Lovin The Queen Bee

This is a range I just got for my ebay store, and I am just in love with it.

I took this photo last week, while my youngest son was extremely unwell. Every time I looked for him, he was in the arms of his dad.

I have decided not to add journalling to this page, or I may add it later. I just liked it the way it was.
