Create 10 - Project#7

Project 7 was a fab layout using up yet more scraps of paper (woohoo!) clustered embellishments, and a paper cut embellishment - this really took me back to my childhood as I used to love making these, and regularly used to churn out lots of "snowflakes" lol

We also had the option of an extra special prize challenge to make a card using the same techniques, so I whipped up this quick card using up the last of my October Afternoon Detours papers.

Create 10 - Project#2

And here's the second one - the idea of this was to use lots of strips with different edges and kind of ruffle them up, but I kept mine flat as I did a 12x12 page, so not much room for ruffling!

This was the perfect opportunity to use up the ton of Sassafras borders I have been hoarding for ages, as well as a few other random strips of paper to break it up a bit and I just love the randomness of all the colours.

Create 10 - Project#1

So here's my take on the first fabby project - a great layout using up all those little scraps of paper that are far too nice to throw away!
There's a fair mix on here from Sassafras, October Afternoon and My Little Shoebox collections and some other bits from old quirky kits.

Not so Wildwood!

Just a quick layout to share, of our trip to Wildwood a few weeks ago - when we saw hardly any animals!

I've used Sassafras and October Afternoon papers.

Hope you're all having a great Bank Holiday weekend - we're off to my Mum and Dad's for BBQ tonight - yes we are mad!! But it's a bit of a tradition to have our first BBQ of the year on Easter weekend - no matter what the weather!

More Florida Layouts

I'm slowly working my way through the ton of pics we took in Florida last September - and finally have some more layouts to share. There's no real journalling on any of them as I kept a pretty detailed diary of the holiday - it's been great fun reading back through it to get the dates/details for the layouts and remembering and laughing at all the silly little things that happened! This first one is of the pool at our villa - I used up the last few scraps of my BG Euphoria papers, along with the matching chipboard and some buttons.

This random pic of Ash was taken at MGM (still can't get my head around the new name!) As we walked pass Voyage of the little Mermaid, Ash decided he would pose for a pic with this smiley little fish! LOL I've used Autumn Leaves, Sassafras and Jillybean soup papers and some random bits from my stash.

This one's of our hire car - using Sassafras Hog Heaven and Happy Place papers, Pink Paislee paper, and the arrow paper and Paper Email journalling spot are from the latest Quirky kit "Note to Self" from Crafty Templates.

Another totally random pic! This was based on a sketch from the SLYMI challenge on UKS. Papers are October Afternoon, Crate Paper and Making Memories.
