Ombre Chevron...

 OMG!!! can you believe it is already April!!!!! I cant beleieve it, time is flying by and in no time it will be the end of the year.

While I am going through another spectacular Dt kit from Sassy Scrapper's I thought I would share with you one more Amy Tangerine layout. I love this layout pink and orange are one of my most favourite colour combinations and I love this Ombre Chevron piece.

 

Have you ever wondered what to do with those tags you get in die cut packs like these Amy Tangerine Yes Please Die Cut Shapes Create, have you ever though of making them into your title?

"Oh my Goodness, you are wonderful & Too Funny'', the "2'' tag is in reference to my daughters age at the time.

Ahhhhhhhhhh Maggie Holmes

Have you ever had a range of paper that has been "I must use it straight away" well this has been the case with my DT kit from Made with Memories....

I am in love with this range by Crate Paper and Maggie Holmes and its fast becoming my go to range at the moment  and I am also very proud that I can swing the range in either boy or girl for my layouts. On those rare occasions there are moments where the range is seen to be made for your photos......

Sassy Scrapper's April Sketch

Another month and another sketch for Sassy Scrapper's and I must say I am loving the increasing entries and your starting to make it hard for us design team members to choose which ones we like, so keep them coming.

This month marks an exciting challenge for me, to design my first ever sketch and after a few frustrating days learning how to draw on Photoshop and a lot of annoying questions for fellow design team member and computer whiz Anita I am proud to present you Sassy Scrappers April sketch....

April Sketch 



Polly's! Scrap kit challenge

How was every one's Easter and long weekend? busy or did you just chill? It was a combo of both here, took the time to spend quality time with my two boys, and it was great to get a "mummy date", and then a very busy Sunday with a Easter egg hunt and Ethan's 8th Birthday. And of course managed to fit a little bit of scrapping and couch time in there and it made me realise I can not wait for the school holidays to start....

So the Easter weekend was for me about completing some challenges just for me, no design team work and to help get me out of my comfort zone. What type of challenges do you do? I would love to hear about them.....

This challenge is for Polly's! Scrap kits which I am a subscriber to, and what a fun challenge its is and you still have the opportunity to get in there to win a special kit you have until midnight Friday the 5th of April to get entries in.

To enter you must do a few things...

1. Create a layout/smash page/card/project life page using the theme SPARKLE. Interpret this how you wish. It may be in the journaling, the title or you may even choose to get your glimmer mists and some glitter out of your stash OR be brave and do all the above ;)

2. Be a liker of our Facebook Page.

3. Post your entry in Polly's gallery.

 

So here's my entry for this challenge hope you like it.....

Last minute Brainwaves......

Have you ever had ideas or brainwaves that just hit you in weird times? Well this is where this layout came from a 3 am brainwave and then the desire to do it straight away and I even had time to set up the sewing machine.

This is based on the Sassy Scrapper's March monthly sketch...... Have you done yours yet? why don't you give it a go this Sunday and just make the deadline with the chance to win a $20 voucher. I have flipped the sketch and then shrunk it down to suit my instagram pictures. I love this Amy Tangerine pattern paper as a background its a real girly version of chevron and who doesn't like pink?

Inspired Blueprints #89

Its Friday that must mean another reveal for Inspired Blueprints, I must say I was very inspired by the tags in this sketch. It seems to be my thing that I like to change the sketch a little bit but that is what is great with the site its all up to you and your interpretation....

 

I was given Crate Paper's Maggie Holmes paper for Made with Memories Dt this month and i really wanted to push the envelope with its application..... as it is made mostly for girls. As soon as I saw that paper I knew that my Bokeh light photo would be perfect.

 

So what do you think?
