Farewell Scrappingclearly

Hello there Scrappingclearly fans.  This post is rather sad - it's my very last post as I am finishing up my DT position at the end of this month.  It's been a wonderful 2+ years and I thank Kylie and the team so much for their faith in me.  I have enjoyed my time here, designing with some fabulous ranges, trying new things and making new friends. 
 
For my very last post, I've decided to share my favourite pages/creations from the last 2 {and a bit} years.  There might be a few, so make that cuppa and enjoy!
 
{I really loved this range - Simple Stories Summer Vibes}
 
Getting my Mixed Media on!
Products used:
 
I have used the Heidi Swapp Believe 6x6 paper pad ... and lots of the ephemera pack for this page.


I have used the perfectly glittery All That Glitters range by Kaiser Craft for this page
Simple but effective!
 
I just LOVED creating this super cute acrylic album!  I went all beachy and used the Simple Stories  Summer Vibes range.  See the entire album HERE.
 
There was a time when I shared quite a few pages of my planner!  Just loved this project!  See THIS POST for more!
 
Awww ... this page was created with the lovely Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Bloom collection.
 
I even scrapped a pic of myself! 
 
I've made many cards over my time here, too!  Here's a couple ...
 
These colours are my favourite :)
 
For this page, I used the Something Wonderful 6 x 6 Designer Pad for the background papers -
I've wanted to do this design for a while using 6 x 6 papers (no cutting to size ;) )...  and this was the perfect opportunity!

So there you have it - a quick journey through my 2 {and a bit} years here at Scrappingclearly.  What a journey it has been!  I will miss it so much, but life takes us in different directions, and it's time for me to take a step back now.  I know that the rest of the team will continue to inspire you and I will enjoy seeing their projects in the days to come.
 
For the last time, happy scrapping, and take care.
Much love,

Merry Christmas

Hello there crafters :) 
I hope you are finding some time to craft in this busy month?  Don't forget our fabulous December Challenges!
Today I am sharing my last lot of Christmas cards using my SC stash ....


I used some more papers from the 6 x 6 Heidi Swapp Believe paper pad - these are just PERFECT for cards - there are so many different looks you can get from the same paper pad!  Adding some of the gorgeous Heidi Swapp Believe Ephemera makes things super easy for coordinating embellishments :)


Super simple cards - I love how effective just a simple strip of washi tape, a glitter cardstock. die cut and a word from the Heidi Swapp Believe Ephemera can be. 


This last card was created using some journal cards from My Mind’s Eye – On Trend 2 Collection – Journal Cards.
Using journal cards is one of my favourite things to do on cards - it makes creating easy!
 
This is my last Christmas card post - I hope you have enjoyed them as I loved making them!  See my other posts HERE and HERE.
 
Do you make Christmas cards?
Do you use non-Christmas ranges?
I'd love to see some!

Christmas cards :)

You might have seen my last blog post about searching my stash for leftovers to make Christmas cards.  Here are some more creations from my mammoth card making session .. a session that, admittedly, lasted quite a few days ;)
 
 
I still had some sheets of paper from the 6 x 6 Heidi Swapp Believe paper pad - these are just PERFECT for cards - there are so many different looks you can get from the same paper pad!
 
 
Adding some of the gorgeous Heidi Swapp Believe Ephemera makes things super easy for coordinating embellishments :)
 
 
I've also used some of the gorgeous banners from the Believe Banner Delights pack.  I really like this black/white/red colour palette for Christmas cards!  What do you think?
