Be Vibrant!!!!

How are you this Sunday? Myself, I am a little bit tired had a 12 hour crop yesterday and when ever I get home from these it takes forever fro my brain to switch off. I wish I could say it was from being productive but at the most I have only ever complete 3 layouts for the 12 hours..... one day I will change that but its great to go and socialize and talk to other adults instead of being interrupted every 2 mins cause you sat down lol.
 
Today I am sharing another layout using Prima's Sunrise Sunset range, and I wanted to make its a vibrant one for you this week.
See I told you it was vibrant but there's something nice about the pink and orange combination. And all I did was lift the colours from the pattern paper itself, I went over the top of the design and made colours really concentrated.
 
There's No Substitute.....

Prima; Sunrise Sunset pp, flourishes, flowers and mini alphas,
AC Thickers , Kaisercraft Flowers, Crafters Workshop template,

5 pm inspiration

Have you ever had one of those great ideas that you just couldn't pull off? well this is where the layout came from.... I wanted to show off the collection with out all the inking this week, but for the life of me it wasn't happening. But at 5 pm the inspiration hits right in the middle of the crazy hour!!! Then begs the question of what to do.... scrap or cook dinner?

I love this sheet of Prima Sunrise Sunset paper, with its bold watercolour effect, and considering it would take a lot of time to create that myself its a great time saver, and that is the solution for the above question....

Follow Your Heart

Prima Sunrise Sunset pp's, & Alphas, Prima Flowers & Trinkets,

I am still here !!!

I am still here, even though I have neglected my poor blog, but I do have an excuse, flu session has kick into gear in our household and I wish it would just hurry up and leave I have given it its eviction notice however we might have a squatter, but enough about our poor health I hope that you are all well.
This months kit from Sassy Scrapper's arrived on my doorstep the other day ( middle of being sick, you know that part where you think "just take me out and shoot me"), and I must say it made my day, why wouldnt it? it was a box full of the lovely Sunrise Sunset collection. So prepare to get messy this month, my hands are already a multicoloured mess!!!

The best part about this range of papers is the backgrounds give you a guide of how to ink and mist your layout. To start pick your colours out in Tim Holtz Distress Inks and Dylusion mists. When you trim your paper dont forget to keep the off cuts as you can use them as background paper strips. Theres a number of different charms and trinkets that you can use to layer, and dont forget a trip to hubby's shed or bunnings.......


It has been great to finally use all my charms I have been hoarding, might need to go and buy more now lol.

A little bit chilly....

 

Good Morning, hope the weather is treating you well... sunny and extremely cold over here in the West at the moment.... Today I thought I would share with you how versatile the Kaisercraft On this day range is. 

Last week you saw me create a soft whimsy page with it and this week I would like to share with you a vintage page. This last 4 months or so I have been delving into my Grandparents old, old photos of them when they first started dating, there are not that many but they are precious and rather than set myself a task to complete a whole album at once I have been doing an odd layout here and there and waiting on ranges of papers that really work with these photos.


As you all would know by now I am a fan of fussy cutting, someone the other day asked me ''don't you find it painful? I hate it'', I wish I did lol but I often sit in front of the television at night time and just cut out what ever pattern papers. Its a versatile technique and great if you are on a budget as you can create a stunning cluster of embellishments with one sheet of paper.


The Kaisercraft On this Day Collectables have the perfect little bits to help complete your page in no time.



You still have a 9 day to enter our Mood Board challenge this month at Sassy Scrappers, for your chance to win a voucher.... and with all the lovely CHA stuff coming out what other motivation do you need.

On this Day for Sassy Scrappers.....

Good morinng? I am trying to convince my kids and a barking dog to sleep in, because its the holidays just started, but I am having no luck at all.... and its a freezing morning, and I don't wanna get out of bed!!! (OK now that I sound like one of my kids whining)...
So for the month of July, I will be using the beautiful Kasiercraft On This Day range and I love everybit of my kit from Sassy Scrappers, I love how it has suprised me as it isnt something that I would normally gravitate too, but I think I will be exploring this style more often.
