DT work

A sneak peak at some recent DT layouts I've done for Scrappers Garden. I can't show you the full layouts yet as the kits have not gone on sale yet. The papers are from the Madame Royale Collection from We R Memory Keepers.

Some new scrapping work and cards

I finally got some scrapping done last week for my DT work over at Scrappers Garden. I have created 2 double LO's and one single page. The kits go one sale in a few weeks, so I can only show a sneak peak of them here... Check out http://scrappersgarden.openstores.com.au/ for all the kits on offer. They are excellent value!

These 2 sneaks are from a double LO. This pp range was so much fun to work with. Lots of bright colours! I need to crop the other LO's so I will post them in the next few days.

The following LO is my take on the July sketch at Scrappers Garden. The pics are from one of my best friend's little boy's first birthday which we celebrated recently. He is so adorable!

Some more card work:

This was created for a friend for her nephew's birthday. I love this little truck! I did a similar card in brown tones for my Dad for his birthday.
This little cutie was made for my mother in law's birthday. It's the Rustic Rooster Hostess Stamp Set. I wasn't a fan of the rooster to start with but now i'm using it, I love it! 

What was meant to be a quick update, has turned into a really long post! Happy reading lovely people and I hope you all have a great weekend.

Happy new financial year

Where has the time gone! I can't believe it is July already. I celebrated my 30th birthday last weekend with my wonderful family and friends. It was a wonderful night and courtesy of my wonderful photographer sister, I have some great pics (including my new avatar of me in my lovely new red dress!). I will have to get organised and put some happy snaps up here for you all to see. Those that are on Facebook and want to have a stickybeak, they are all up there for you to see for now :)

I didn't get a great deal of scrapping done in June, but have made what feels like a million cards for my Stampin' Up! workshops! My new order of stamps arrived this week so I have had so much fun experimenting with them and I am addicted to my Stampin' Pastels! I am trying to get organised to take some pics of some of the cards I have created. I placed my pre-order for the new Stampin' Up! mini catalogue today. I'm in love with everything in it! You will all love what they have on offer. Customers can commence ordering from this mini catalogue from 1 August. I can see I will be ordering everything from it in the few months it is available!

Most of you would now have seen the new Kaisercraft QOne ranges. Aren't they gorgeous!! I placed an order for some of their goodies today through Scrappers Garden. I love the storage options available too - what a wonderful idea!! I can't wait for them to arrive. I had to keep myself extremely restrained and not buy everything!! I am going to have so much fun creating with these goodies - I can't wait!

I'm off to my second Stampin' Up! workshop tomorrow, Mum is hostessing. Lucky it's close family and friends as my voice has disappeared this week and is only slowly coming back LOL!!

Have a wonderful weekend :)

Scrapping from May

I have been extremely busy the last few months and have not had a chance to update my blog with my LO's created in May. I haven't done any scrapping in June yet. I have paper and photos cut out ready to attempt my first LO of the month but don't have a great deal of mojo at the moment and am a little burnt out. I'm busily preparing for my first Stampin' Up! Workshop on the weekend. I have a few cards that I have made as samples and will try to get some pics up here over the next week. Now to enjoy some work from May... TFL xx

These were my Design Team LO's for Scrappers Garden. For the month of May I used the Kaisercraft Spirograph and Everblooming ranges.

This one is from a challenge over at Deb's Creations. This was Gayatri's sketch challenge.

Another challenge over at Deb's Creations. This was Skye's Songbirds Challenge, based on "The Sweetest Thing" lyrics for inspiration.

Another challenge over at Deb's - this one was Theresa's challenge set for May.

Mandy's bright coloured negative space challenge over at Deb's.

This is the sketch from Scrappers Garden for May and also doubled as one of the challenges over at Deb's. I love this Basic Grey paper!

This was a LO from one of Nicole's shabby chic classes at Scraploot. I hadn't quite finished it at the class and wanted to use it as the basis of my shabby chic LO for Chris's DT LO Challenge at Deb's. I love browns and greens together and I love this paper. I had so much fun with this class.

I'm still jumping up and down!!!!!

I found out this afternoon that I have been accepted as a Design Team member for the lovely Scrappers Garden. I can't wait to get started!!! A huge thanks to Linda for the wonderful opportunity!

Speaking of scrapping, these are the latest 2 LO's I have finished.
