sweet enough to eat ...


Sweet enough to eat
Hybrid page

 I made this page from a new technique I learnt yesterday.
select 9 digi papers from a saved file on your pc.
Go to print and choose the wallet option.
Print out and use as your background paper.

I have been wanting to use stitching on my pages for a while now but haven't had the courage...
Whilst at papermaze crop this month, my friend Karen and myself challenged each other to create a LO with stitching. This is my warm up attempt at just the edge lol x

fairy canvas and ribbon/stash broach

This canvases was made for an order.
thought I'd share it....
not my usual style but loved how it turned out.







Close up detail of the fairies and flower ........



































                                      

I made this broach from stash items,
ribbon, buttons, bling and a brad. all backed onto felt.


Had this spot paper (IOD paintables) for a while.Its on water colour paper.
 I knew I was going to use it to scrap my daughters chicken pox.
 But had misplaced it.
Whilst going through my stash I found it so decided to scrap it before I lost it again.

I LOVE BPC

I'm currently taking part in a BPC "creative retreat" by May Flaum
The emphasise is on treat ... I love Mays classes they always inspire me to create.
My goal at the moment is to get going and create faster!!! stop worrying about perfection and just get on with things x

Winters butterfly
was created with scraps left over from "papermaze Jan crop"



Smile
tells the story of our wet camping trip.
I followed instructions by Stacey Julian from her podcast on her blog
the aim is to get you to create the LO in 30 mins
record for me! am so pleased with finished LO give it a go.





Laugh
is a scrap lift of May Flaums "Lion" page
May challenged us to pic our fav colour and scrap with only that colour.



A good idea
is a scrap lift of May Flaums " A real good idea" page from her creative retreat class.
I loved getting messy with the sprays and inks x




Cafe Mickey
I wanted to keep the focus on the pics so used a plain background & bright embellishments.




Nursury
I was trying to scrap fast and use what was out on my table...
again I used a plain background as I had it on my table and had scraps left over from my mini book.

valentines/mothers day flower pops

I made these for valentines day but could also work for mothers day.


 I simply layed paper flower that I'd made, inked and doodled.
 finished off with green paper leaves and green ribbon.



Heres a 30th canvase I made for an order.
I love how girly it turned out.



I have been doing alot of little things in my home recently.
My old bathroom cabinet was looking a little tired.
So off I went to Ikea ( I love it there sooooooooooooo much)!!!!


I picked up this cabinet for an amazing £16 but I didnt like the grey back.
so I decided to alter it, Off to B&Q I went and found this lovely wallpaper. It matched in my bathroom perfectly.


I covered the back with double sided tape and covered it before fitting the back. I so pleased with my bespoke cabinet x


Lowyns tat-tat-too
  Had to share this little story (going to be one for the scrapbook)

 When I came home with my new tattoo lowyn got very upset and sulked.
When I asked her what was wrong she said "I havent got a pretty tat-tat-too.
2 sharpie pens and 2mins later she had her very own.


 She was soooooooooo pleased bless her.
