Some Quick Shabby Chic Cards....

Hi there lovelies, thanks for stopping by.

Just a short post today featuring a couple of cards I have made using the

 gorgeous Prima "Flirty Fleur" papers as well as lots of their lovely flowers too.

I made a layout last week using this collection (scroll down to see it)

& I had some leftovers, as we always do, so I thought I would 

make a couple of cards to use them up.

However, I think the star of the show would have to be that cute little

wishing well which is a Prima resin embellishment I have had forever!!

Hope you like them.

Until next time...

Some More Design Team Inspiration For2Crafty Chipboard"Beautiful"

Hello there, thanks for stopping by. 

Today I have more design team inspiration to share for

2Crafty Chipboard.

Lots of 2Crafty Chipboard & lots of Prima Marketing goodies.

A match made in heaven.

A little bit of mixed media fun on my background.

It is a bit hard to see but the papers I have used are from Prima & they have all beautiful

foil patterns through them. Unfortunately that reflects when you take photos.

Sorry about that !!

Lots of gorgeous Prima flowers too & lots of yummy textures.

  

I love the 2Crafty chipboard pieces I have chosen to use on this layout.

If you would like to read how I altered all the chipboard pieces,

pop over to the 2Crafty blog where I have explained how in detail.

Well another layout complete. I hope you like this one.

Until next time...

Lemoncraft July Challenge"You"

 Hi there lovelies, thanks for stopping by.

Today I have a layout to share with you that I created for the

July challenge over on the Lemoncraft blog.

This challenge was all about leaves & the colour green.

Wow. Thats my absolute favourite colour.

Lemoncraft July Challenge.

So I had lots of fun & I just kept adding lots of gorgeous leaves.

I added some gorgeous chipboard leaves & bits from 

2Crafty Chipboard.

I also used this beautiful wood effect paper from 

Lemoncraft "The House of Roses" collection.

It made the perfect backdrop for my layout.


I get my Lemoncraft papers from The Vintage Chicks Club
online store. They carry a great range of Lemoncraft & so
many other great brands too.

I had such a great time creating this layout, it really is a great

challenge. I just kept adding bits & pieces & of course, lots of leaves.

A little bit of mixed media in the background as well

 as some beautiful flowers too. 

I really enjoyed creating this layout.

This was the perfect challenge to inspire me,

especially with my love of all things green.

Well thats all for today.

Until next time...

My Design Team Reveal ForJuly MAIN Challenge at More Than Words Challenge"Family"

"Family"

Hi there friends, thanks for stopping by. Today I have my design team reveal

for you for the July challenge over at More Than Words Challenge blog.

This is the July challenge image...

#1. Either use or be inspired by the word DISCOVER

&

#2. Use things out of you old stash. (and we all have plenty of that !!)

This months challenge word, DISCOVER, made me think about my past & so 

I decided to scrap this beautiful photo of my Great Grandmother, I remember her

 when I was a very small child.  (I was actually named after her) 

For the creative part of this challenge I used a vast selection of beautiful

"Fabrica Decoru"

products that I had received from them & I have been dying to use them.

 

Such beautiful papers & so naturally I set about doing

some fussy cutting with them.

They were perfect for my vintage theme layout.

 

For the creative part of the challenge being to use older things from your stash,

I used some older pieces I had of 2Crafty Chipboard, some older Prima flowers

& some pieces of lace I had in my stash too. 

Another challenge complete.

I do hope you can find some time to play along with us too.

Until next time....
