Lina's Tag

This is the tag Lina has made for September swap. She is way ahead. It is for Father's Day.

I love the flower she made for the top. So effective.

Rose-Anne's Tag

This is a tag I made for the July Tag swap. We had to do famous Female Quotes. On the back I did a quote from me. I am famous, aren't I. LOL. It is says

"Dwell on the positives and learn from the negatives." This is what I tell my students at school.

Sketch Challenge Layout

I took another photo - this one is a bit better

On one of the scrapbooking groups I belong to, each month there is a sketch challenge. I finally got around to participating in it this month. The layout above is my interpretation of the sketch.
Whilst doing the layout I also managed to clean up my flowers, bling and chipboard - all nicely organised in self sealing bags and labelled (yes, I know I'm annal). However, it really does help me find things more quickly and I'm hoping to use more of my stash instead of continually buying more supplies. I know my favourite LSS won't have as much custom, but seriously I think I could open my own shop with all that I have LOL.

Recipe:
Kaisercraft flowers and pearls
Chipboard
Letters - K&Co-Kology
Basic Grey - Pheobe papers
Adriondack Acrylic Paint Dabbers - Lettuce
Bazzill card

You can purchase all the supplies from Rose-Anne @ Cropworks.

The Crafter's Workshop and Dabbers

Have you ever tried to find the perfect patterned paper to do a layout of your child's school?Sometimes you just cannot find it. With a stencil from The Crafter's Workshop and a 2 dabbers I created my own patterned paper that will work with any school colours. Jess's colours are easy as any Christmas theme will be fine but here i have used the stencil on white cardstock and the red and green dabber to paint my own patterned paper. I also used the stencil and one dabber to write Jessica's name.

Bazzill Cardstock and Heidi Swapp Alphabet

This layout was done using 2 new products. Bazzill Swiss Dots cardstock in 2 shades of colours and Heidi Swapp Ghost Stickers. These stickers are transparent and I have added some Ranger Distress inks to them to make them the colour I want to suit the layout. Notice the texture in them.The pearls are Kaisercraft.

Treehouse Memories Patterned Paper

These papers are so versatile and classic. So they don't date and can match up with any layout or card. They are also double sided. the front is patterned and the back is a plain colour that tones in.

The flowers have been punched and Kaisercraft pearls have been placed in the centres.

Bazzill Swiss Dots Cardstock

This cardstock by Bazzill is so nice. The texture is great. There are 3 colours in each range. I made this layout for the camp I went to in May.It uses 2 colours in the pink range. I have also used Kaisercraft stamps and pearls. The chipboard title is a range we also stock and any titles can be ordered. This one is in script font.

Dianne's Tag

Here is another of Dianne's tags. The flower is so elegant on this card.

Raine's Tag
