Precious Dreams

2012-01-11T12:36:00.002+08:00

The Frame and the bird in the top right hand corner are moulds by my amazing friend Mel be sure to watch out for her launch which is coming very soon, they will be available in stores and online. I have used

My grandaughter is BEAUTIFUL

2012-01-08T15:06:00.003+08:00

and so are the amazing papers by Pion. I managed to unpack some of my scrap supplies last night and put together this layout using the Pion paper range " Studio of memories " These papers are so very soft and petty, so easy to work with because everything seems to just flow nicely. I have also used some Dusty attic chipboard, Prima stamps, a stick pin hand made by none other that "Me" and a

Sweet Nothings !!!

2011-12-11T15:32:00.001+08:00

I started this layout on Friday night at the cop at Tomorrows Memories , but as you can imagine if you know me personally I was way to busy having fun and talking and laughing to get it finished, so I stayed up and finished it at home last night Now I am totally in love with this range, its pretty special actually. I have also included some close ups of the detail for you to take a

A laugh, is simply a smile ...................................................

2011-11-28T11:57:00.001+08:00

I did this layout over the weekend, I have used rather a large amount of products so just a quick run down, I have used Prima papers, Dusty Attic corner, Molds by Mel, A pearl ribbon strip, Doily, , the flowers are all Green Tara, but I put them together to make these flowers and glimmer misted them, I used the new Nougat on the cream flowers which is a new favorite glimmer mist for me, just

It's been so long..........and I met my idol

2011-11-05T22:50:00.002+08:00

Its been so so long since I posted. I have scrapped although not a lot at all, but I do need to get in and do some serious scrapping in the near future. I went on retreat with a fantastic bunch of ladies, had a great time, I do just need to learn to relax and have fun though, but I am trying to make an effort so hopefully I will learn to chill LOL. I got to meet my idol Invild Bolme last week

Manor house goodies !!!

2011-09-29T16:58:00.001+08:00

I created again last night, gosh I am having fun at the moment, just gotta hope it lasts..... I used some more of the Kaisercraft Bonjour papers, along with some very yummy Manor House flowers, now this is a new Australian company whose flowers I am adoring and I can see that they will surely go a long way, however as its early days, they flowers are selling out very fast so if you see them in

Dusty Attic frame

2011-09-13T21:06:00.000+08:00

I decided last week to do a layout using the new Dusty frames, I was really plaesed with how it turned out, althought getting good photos to share was not as easy, and unfortunately these pics dont do my layout any justice but if you click on the image and enlarge it you will get a bit better look at what it looks like. I love the soft mauve tones that I have created here, and the flowers and

Tomorrows Memories and my pins

2011-09-04T12:41:00.001+08:00

I just thought I would share with you .....I recently made some hat pins that started out because I wanted some to use on my own scrapbook pages, and of course I became obsessed with them so I kept going, anyway I took them in and showed the lovely ladies at Tomorrow's Memories and they have decided to sell them in the shop, they have created the most beautiful display that has made my pins look

Lost and found -Two

2011-09-01T21:05:00.003+08:00

Well I am so in love all over again, with this range, so I thought I better get a few sheets (grin) anyway I sat down last night and finally got my scrap on, life has been hard for a month or so now with the death of my beloved Aunty from lung cancer, so as you can imagine I had no desire to scrap but I am feeling better these days and really enjoyed the return of my mojo.....

Authentique Blissful

2011-08-18T10:24:00.000+08:00

Just a quick share of a layout I did with my last design team pack from Tomorrows Memories, using the Authentique "Blissful" range of papers, I also added a Dusty Attic frame around the photo. This is all I have to show, Mojo has gone AWOL, I did a trip to Tomorrows Memories yesterday and went a bit overboard on some new papers and picked up a new design kit, so hopefully I will get some Mojo

A night out scrapping and laughing and laughing some more!!!!

2011-08-06T17:23:00.001+08:00

That is what I did last night, it was truly a great night, I managed to get just one layout done for the whole night, but had an incredibly funny night playing with photobooth on my ipad with some great scrappy friends, we laughed out loud and had a great night, something that was very much needed. Love these Prima flowers and what a perfect match to these awesome papers too. Thanks again for

Another Once upon a sketch and a couple of cards too !!!

2011-07-18T22:00:00.001+08:00

I instantly loved this sketch and was excited to get started on it, it is by far my favorite one so far. Journaling Criteria : your journaling has to be a quote (handwritten, printed, rub on etc. ). As an option you can include journaling in the lines on sketch but this is not necessary How awesome is this sketch, Nadia is so talented !!! Now some of

Once upon a sketch

2011-06-05T14:31:00.001+08:00

I am loving this site at the moment, and considering I have never worked from sketches before I am amazed at how much I am enjoying it. The challenge this fortnight was a girly one, so that was right up my alley, to say I am a bit nervous as to what the next fortinght one will be is an understatement lol but I guess only time will tell and if it is a boy theme then at the very least I will

A layout to share

2011-05-30T15:19:00.004+08:00

I had a great time creating this layout over the weekend, I have used the reverse of a Prima rosebud 12 x 12 paper for this layout, I placed an old crocheted doily on the page and sprayed the top half with Tattered Angels glimmermist, I also used the Martha Stewart large scallop punch along with some gorgeous Prima flowers and bling. I also added some Dusty Attic foliage to the flower cluster,

A quiet week

2011-05-21T10:57:00.002+08:00

Its been cold here in Perth this week and as such my scrapping desires have been minimal, however after having to withdraw my entry at Once upon a sketch last month, due to getting my layout published, I really wanted to get one done this month, so although I was cold and sorry for myself, I did manage just the one layout this week. Ok I am freezing, but off to do some housework, have a

2011-05-08T11:15:00.006+08:00

Well I have been wanting to paticipate in this challenge site since day one BUT if you go and look through my blog you will see very early on in the piece that I don't journal. A few weeks ago I actually scrapped a LO that was of the sketch, but couldnt convince myself to journal on it, so I was not able to submit it.......But this week I decided to try again and I DID IT....I journalled, nothing

Prima And Dusty Attic

2011-04-13T12:02:00.000+08:00

I was in the mood to create again last night, possibly because I had this beautiful photo of my daughter in law Amy, such a pretty natural photo. I used white bazzill and just inked it with Glimmermist sprays and then I added the Dusty Attic wall, mini words, butterfly, leaves and bird, I also added some beautiful new Prima flowers. Thanks so much for dropping past, I am so glad you did. I

2011-03-05T11:32:00.002+08:00

Is totally out of this world, Oh my gosh I was worse than a kid in a lolly shop. I am amazed at the standards and ranges that have come out and had about 10 papers that I wanted to start with but managed to narrow it down to just one rofl. I used the Botanical collection "Missing you" which is just stunning paper, along with one of the new Prima vines which I added several flower bits too and I

2011-02-20T16:21:00.004+08:00

I have used the Dusty Attic clocks and butterfly along with some Prima and Tim Holtz ribbon bloom
