B'day stash

Recently, my daughter had a birthday ... you might remember the birthday hat and badge I made for her?  Anyway, of course, I have heaps of photos from her party and from her actual birthday ... so time to start scrapping some :D ...

This was a perfect page to use some of my gorgeous lilac Maddison flowers  ... and don't they coordinate perfectly with the FWAB Elise Flourish Silver along with the Dusky Pink flower!

And you'll also see some scattered FWAB Adhesive Pearls 100 Pack Purple .  These are perfect to add to Thickers!

That's all from me for now - have a great day!
Happy Scrapping!

Vintage FWAB

I don't do "vintage" very often.  I like my bright colours too much!  but, I was experimenting with this background and found it just really lent itself to these colours.   I'm sort of happy with the outcome...

I just ADORE this photo of my little boy ... it would have to be one of my favourites :) (photo by LaBelle Photographie)


I have used a selection of the new FWAB flowers ...Maddison Flowers in black and chocolate, and Elise in white, as well as the 2 flowers (and the flourish) from the FWAB Elise Flourish Antique Brown - Latte & Brown flowers.


You'll also see a Jack Vine in Olive Green, cut up to fit around my cluster :).

So, there you go, I think I just MIGHT be able to 'do' vintage!! :D :D
Thanks for visiting!

October She's Savvy kit

Hi everyone!  I received my October She's Savvy kit in the mail yesterday and was immediately inspired!!!!  Totally loving the colours and love the huge amount of embellies in this one.  I'm a big embellie scrapper, so this really helps me :)

Here's the kit:

Here's the first page I created:

These colours are so versatile - and whilst the kit is a little bit 'summery' ... you'll see that it's certainly not limited to summer photos - in fact, I haven't used a summery pic yet in the 3 pages I've done so far!

Loving the vellum polaroid frames too!!  And the Prima flowers are pretty cool :D
My second page:

As you can see, I just loved that chevron paper ... cutting it up to spread it out over a couple of pages :D ... there's still a little bit left too!

You might have spied the Flutterby flairs too?  Aren't they just adorable?!?!!?

I have another page from this kit to share ... but you'll have to wait because it's my take on the November BIG Savvy sketch challenge :) :)
Don't forget to pop over to the Savvy store and check out the kits!!!  You won't be disappointed with this stunning Girl Themed Kit full of a mix of coordinating products based around the brand new Crate Paper The Pier papers with a little bit of MME Cut & Paste & Lily Bee Design plus a super variety of different embellishments to suit!  You will receive over $34 value in your kit for the Savvy price of only $30.

Birthday Time

Hello everyone!  Well, we have lots of birthdays around this time of year and last month we had a combined party for our kids.  Miss 7 had a RAINBOW themed party and I had lots of fun making a few different party things for her - and of course, adding some rainbow coloured FWAB!  Here she is with my FWAB creations:

First up was the party hat.  This was my first time making one from scratch and I was quite surprised how EASY it was!!
I found a party hat template like this one (there are HEAPS if you google them!), printed it out and traced around it onto some bright rainbow coloured paper ...

It was easy to make up, I didn't even have to glue it!

Then ... time to decorate!

I used nearly every colour in my stash of Adhesive Pearls 100 packs  on here... they were just perfect for layering over the "7" thicker and for around the circle.

I also made a "7" badge for her to wear proudly on the day:

Again, I used my stash of Adhesive Pearls 100 packs to make the "7" thicker nice and colourful.

Talking about BIRTHDAYS, we are excited to have TWO new additions in our extended family over the coming months!!  Even though I won't know ahead of time whether they will be boys or girls, I still thought I would make up some cards in preparation of our new arrivals.  Such an exciting time!!

This boy one is using the Jasmine puffy flourish in Latte  and a gorgeous cream Elise flower.

And a girl card:

On this one I've used off-cuts from FWAB Chloe Pearl Flourish Pink and a FWAB Elise Flowers 4pk - Burnt Orange.

That's all from me for now!  Thanks for visiting!

Happy Scrapping :) :)
