Baby Shower

Chelsey (and Sam) had a baby shower for their expected arrival in the next few weeks.
H
ere is the card I made for them.



I used a old Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp I have had a while now,
and coloured her with my Promarkers.
I glossed those big eyes with Glossy Accents.
The patterned paper is from Crafter's Companion
Ribbon roses and ribbon from my stash
Fern punch from Martha Stewart
'Baby Shower' die from Crafter's Companion
Sequins by Pink Paislee
 A little glitter was added with Stickles

Good luck Chelsey - looking forward to hear of your new baby.
Thanks for looking

Christmas Countdown!

I'm all ready for the beginning of December with this Advent Calendar I made for this month's Design Team post on the Papermaze Blog.

I have been having fun with the Bo Bunny - Christmas Carousel collection, and an idea for counting down to the big day. The delightful papers have some lovely images in soft shades of pink, yellow, green and blue. For my first Christmas project this year, I have created an Advent Calendar, each day revealing memories from previous years in the form a tiny photograph.





Please see the Papermaze Blog to see how I made the calendar.
Thanks for looking
Enjoy the countdown to Christmas.

Sisters

The first layout I have created with a photo from my daughter Emily's marriage to Jack in October. This layout was designed by Vanessa at Papermaze and was the crop kit from September's Crop.


This photo shows Catherine and Emily getting ready for the wedding, with a little help from Snapchat to complete the autumnal wedding theme! They are wearing the housecoats Catherine brought back from her trip to Singapore last year, making the photo perfect for these colours.

The layout was created with ....
Distress Oxide Inks
American Crafts - Oh Happy Life collection
Simple Stories - Sunshine and Happiness
Pebbles - Simple Life
White Bazzill
Twine, Prima Flowers, circle punch, tropical leaf die,
I added a JOFY flower stamp & some Enamel Accents.

Great, colourful fun!
Thanks for looking

More Storage for Sizzix Dies


A variation on a theme from me today, another Sizzix folder based on the same idea as before, but showing how you can change the theme to anything you want it to be. I have made this one to store my floral dies, and my other one was based on a masculine theme. This was my post for the Papermaze Blog - Scrap, Paper, Scissors this month, please see the blog for the details of how it was made.






 

I has fun making this folder with these beautiful papers.
Now to work out different measurements for my other dies!
Thanks for looking.
