SPLASHES OF COLOUR

Hello all! I'm here with a layout that I have created for this month's challenge over at Canvas Corp Brands The inspiration was a moodboard, and some gorgeous creations from the design team! and the theme is lace and lazy ;) I loved this moodboard, it had all the right feels! I would've liked to have done a winter layout,  but as you may know, we don't get much of a winter here in sunny Queensland! so  This is my take on the #ccbchallenge I have used a mix of papers, some 7 gypsies old collections and some Architextures. There is some lace :) I have also used some Glimmermists splatters on my base. I LOOOOOVE these tiles, so added some extra dimension for them. There is some more lace :) Some gorgeous Prima flowers that just fit perfectly! And there is the lazy, my daughter and my cat lol, on one lazy sunday Anyway, this was a layout that was really just for fun! I hope you like

Hello again all. As you may have noticed my blog has had a bit of an update/refresh. I hope you like the new look and ease of moving from post to post. I do have a layout to share with you today.... This layout is one that I have created for  7 Dots Studio This layout is one featuring my son.  I have scrapped this photo before but I love it so much I scrapped it again :) Mark Maker For this layout I have used the ' Epilogue 12 x 12 Paper ', from the Writer's Block Collection, as my base.  I have then used the 'Clear Stamps' from both the Hazy Days & Paintchips collections to stamp over my base in colours complimentary to the papers I had chosen. I then used the 'Chevron Stencil' from the Hazy Days collection to ink over my base. Then some splashes of colour :) I have then used pieces from the Paintchips '12 x 12 Clover Paper' & the '6 x 6 Paper Pad' , which I have distressed

Good morning all! Or evening if you are visiting from the other side the world :) There is a new Mini Challenge on over at the Anna's Craft Cupboard Facebook Community . This month is challenge is Doilies! So thee is my take on the challenge.... I have used a few doilies on my layout. There is one from the gorgeous 49 and Market Cottage Life papers, and there is another bought one tucked into the right. I have used some 7 Dots studio Word stickers. Lots of fussy cutting for the layers. There are also two doilies that I used a Paper Rose Doily Die to cut out of white cardstock.  I really love how this one turned out! Don't forget you have until the end of the month to upload your entry into the Facebook Group Album. Until next time Lisa xoxo

Hello Crafters! I'm back again today to share with you the third and final layout that I have created using the gorgeous 49&Market Rusty Autumn Collection that I received from Anna's Craft Cupboard . Here is My Sweetheart This layout is of our gorgeous girl Lucy, who has recently joined our family. Is there anything cuter than a pug puppy?! Anyways back to the layout.... As you can see there was lots of fussy cutting happening in my room! I really wanted to layer these elements up. There are so many pretty elements in this collection, they all had to be used LOL I've also used some of the 49&Market 'Jute Cording' on my page. I didn't use much in the way of embellishments as I wanted the papers to take centre stage. I hope you have liked the layouts I have created with this range, and that it may inspire you in someway today. That's not it from me for the year, I still have l

Here is Memories For this layout I have started with a double layered and distressed papers for my base. I have stencilled with modelling paste to add some background dimension. I have then added splatters in matching colours to the papers. I have also used some 'Distress Crayons - Metallics' to roughly draw around the edges of my base.

I have also used the 49&Market 'Blossom Blends - Aloe' and 'Seaside Blooms - Sandcastle' I have also used some of the '49&Market Jute Cording' I love how you can take these papers and completely chan

For my next layout I have  'Magical' For this layout I have left the majority of my chipboard raw, to help with that beach feel. I have used Blue Fern Studio's Wanderlust collection.

Lastly I have used the word Magical, also from the  'Fine Word Set 2' 2Crafty Products Used: I hope you have liked my projects for this month.
