Stole my Heart

I am sharing a recent layout for FabScraps Design Team using their C110 Holly Jolly Christmas collection, although this is not a Christmas layout at all.

I made the keyhole using some air dry clay, painting it red once it was dry and then rubbed with some gold wax to bring out the details.

I inked a star stencil with some Iced Spruce Distress Oxide and then sprayed the ink lightly with water, turning the stencil over onto the paper to create a "reverse" stencil.

I tore strips of paper to make up the layout and then layered difference embellishments and stamped leaves between and on top of the layers.

The title is heat embossed with gold embossing powder.

I hope this layout has inspired you to have fun when you create!

Hope anchors the Soul

I am sharing a recent single layout for FabScraps Design Team using their new 

C111 All Aboard collection.  I LOVE this range ... a lot!

I stenciled on this layout using Nuvo Mousse in Pacific Teal and heat embossed the chipboards in white Ranger Embossing powder with a bit of red added to the lighthouse.

Some flowers, art stones, seashells and other embellishments completed the layout.

Happy summer! 

Beautiful Moments

This is a mini album that I made using the very beautiful Prima "Havanna" collection.

I absolutely love the colours of the papers and flowers.

I wanted to use a bit of mixed media on the cover so I painted the birds and beads in mint chalk paint and rubbed some gold wax over the edges.

For the title, I added some texture powder to some mint as well as pink paint and then painted the chipboard to give it some texture.

I just need to add some photo's to the pages and the album will be complete ... 

or perhaps I'll gift it to a good friend.
