dream......

Helloo there!

I cant believe that it's nearly the end of June! Where on earth has the first half of the year gone?


Today I am going to show you two layouts that I have taught this week here is South Australia!

This is one of my favourites at the moment.

I have used a new release that is about to hit the web! (dont forget to look here for stockists)
The cute little doily embellishment I have inked in a matte black and using a mounting tape, adhered it to my page. The title is a new "word board" which has been inked in about 4 different Glimmermists and the stamped over the top with a script stamp and the vine has had a similar treatment! The papers are from Kaisercraft.This page I created for Once Upon A Sketch based on this sketch. Sketches are my favourite way to create!For this page, I used three different sizes of our very popular butterfly and the alphas for the title. I inked in black first then used an American Crafts Zing black glitter embossing powder to give it a bit of texture. I made the three flowers myself from black satin and used some black tulle under the wings of the big butterfly!
I used the gorgeous Teresa Collins papers for this and love the result!

Head over to Once Upon A Sketch - you still have a couple of days left to have a go at this sketch challenge!

Also, dont forget to leave me a comment - I will draw a winner of some free chipboard next Monday (I've been a little lazy on the blogging).

Have a great week ladies!

  20. Love the pics of Miss J, especially the first one with the weather beaten board wall. Love the Kaisercraft papers, the colours of the elements on your page are just gorgeous. There's something about black that makes all other colours pop. The LO you made for UOAS is just so delish!
