Splashing the paint around

DS2 has this shirt he loves. For him, it is a little out there – a bit more grunge/emo than my conservative, straight-laced, prudish little boy normally wears. Personally – I love the shirt, it is dark yet bright, funky and a little wicked, all at once. I love the ’sketched’ feel to it and [...]

Father’s Day card – Offshore

Time to end this month as I began it – bright, bold and cheerful – and with plenty of Kaiser Offshore. My Father’s Day card won’t be missed – just like his kids, this card is ‘in your face’ and ‘full of life’. Lol – poor Hubby won’t know what hit him when this lands [...]

Scrooge McScrapper makes cards

I might be an expensive scrapper to keep – but I am the original Scrooge McScrapper when it comes to making cards. For me it is about using up the left-overs from layouts and making them into cards, rather than throwing the bits out.
Although there are 3 cards shown, there is only one basic design [...]

CI Rock-a-bye – a mini album from scratch

Yep – I made one. Don’t ask me when the next one will be (not for a looooooooong time) but I love the one I have done.
I am a Marah Johnson fan from way back – love her grungey, moody, quirky sense of design and I buy almost every range she puts out. Her stuff [...]

August Boys Class Layout – more Graphic 45

Here is the layout I did for this class – using the stunning Graphic 45 paper ranges and other odds and ends.

Very happy with how it turned out.

More Imaginisce ‘Fairest of them All”

For the next layout I wanted to do something a little fun – a bit quirky for me. I had these lovely little photos of Madame peddling herself “Off to the Ball” in her Disney Princess-mobile. Looking at the papers, I noticed that the Magic Meadow pattern looked very much like green rolling hills – [...]

cc layout for 123

I got to work with some of the new Kaiser papers for our recent cc. Just loving the papers in the Pennyroyale collection – they are so me!! Chocolate, pink and a sweet photo of Madame enjoying a simple everyday moment in life – what more do you need for scrapping?

I used Kaiser’s new chippy [...]

Fairest of them All – Imaginisce

Oh I love love love this range. I sooooo wanted to work with it and it was an endless source of frustration not to be able to get my hands on it due to the wholesaler not getting it out to TSE and THEN having the hide to not supply all the papers.
Yeah well – [...]

August Sketch for 123

So this month is Big Boys Business month for 123 – and with that theme in mind I did a layout of my big boy enjoying the serious business of having fun in the surf. So much fun, I needed more than one photo to convey just how much fun it was!! [...]
