FWAB + Glitter

Last month, I shared a tutorial on the FWAB blog.  Now, I'm a simple scrapper and I like easy techniques that don't take all day.  So, I demonstrated how to add some glitter to FWAB flourishes for some extra WOW factor.  It's quick and easy I promise!  See the full tutorial here.

Here are a couple of pages created with my "blinged up" flourishes :)


Oh how I LOVE bright colours!! :D

I cut up the flourish to fit around my cluster.  I think it adds just the right wow factor to this fun birthday page :)


I also added some glitter to the FWAB flowers too - using the same easy technique :)

Here's another page I created because I was on such a roll and just loved the look of glitter on my FWAB flourishes:


This time I've used 2 puffy Jasmine Flourishes in White and Hot Pink, as well as 2 Elise flowers in pink and white.


The glitter gives a fun texture to the flourishes! 

 
And that's all for now ...
Thanks for visiting today!!

Babies faces have so many expressions! Love this little look:

March SUYS

This month at Show Us Your Stuff, we have a {green} mood board to take inspiration from!  Of course, each creation has to include a handmade item as well, because that's what SUYS is all about ;) ...

I was inspired by the nature - the grass, the trees and the flowers...
also the paintbrush pic inspired me to paint my mist on the background instead of spraying ...

Handmade items from Burdy's Handmade Embellies and A Lil' Somethin'.

Pop over to the SUYS blog and see the other samples and play along!! :) :)

White with Latte

The challenge at White with One this month is:


As you know, I find WW1 challenges very .. well ... challenging!!  LOL.   But, maybe this one was a LITTLE easier than some ...

I dusted off my texture paste and stamps again to create this:



I really should use texture paste more often!  It's fun and such a great effect!  The drying time does make me a little impatient though :/


Thanks for visiting!
