Kaisercraft - Sea Breeze

Good morning I am here today sharing one of the three bonus layouts using the left overs from the Shop and Crop Kaisercraft Kit, and this months is use the stunning Sea breeze range, all I had to do was grab a piece of card stock, a template and some texture paste from my stash and I was ready to go, the rest is what you have left over in your kit.



This layout is based on this months Kaisercraft sketch challenge and you still have time to enter HERE so why dont you give it a go with your leftovers!!! I cant wait to see what you create.




#44/365




I love my sewing machine!!! Instant detail without a lot of work, if you dont want to do that grab yourself a white gel pen and just draw stitch lines on your layout.


To highlight the word and other small details like the black stickers  and the hearts ,I just went over the top with some glossy accents. I find its a nice subtle to add more detail to your layout. 


Dont throw out your boarder strips, they are the perfect little something to add to your layout, also you will need them for another bonus layout that I will share next week.....



Dont forget to grab your foam mount to add some dimension to your flowers also give the flowers a little curl on the ends to help give them some definition.




Kaisermist - Winter Grey

Kaisercraft Template - Wheat


Till next week, when I share another bonus layout, have a creative day.

Growing Gala

Good morning here with an early one as its an early start today, my son and daughters school has a growing gala today. The have been growing plants/veggies over this term and now they have to bring in there plants to show off there achievements so this means a very careful trip in the car this morning as we dont want anything to happen to these plants or there might be tears. 

I am going to share with you my final challenge entry for the Scrap Girls Easter cyber crop and my final using Maggie Holmes Flea Market range. As I said before I managed another 7 layouts out of this range (one more will be revealed next month). I have to say I am very pleased with my efforts and theres only a few bits left, so it might make a little come back at the end of the year to finish off the stash. This layout also marks layout #41 - still behind but very happy with what I have done so far.

Wow where has the week gone? Its been a hectic one, teacher - parent interviews, run the kids here and there where some canvas orders to finish, design team work, Ethan's Birthday and today trying to catch up on the household stuff plus the computer work that needs to be done!!! 

Ok while I breathe, today I am going to share with you a layout that I did for a cyber crop over at Scrap Girls Retreat - Easter at Home. I am very proud of my efforts I have to say I might get another one or two challenges done before it closes.... I also managed to nearly finish the Maggie Holmes Flea Market papers and embellishments in my stash too!! ! I think I have about 4 sheets of pattern paper left so thats not a bad effort, mind you that mind go into the pay it forward pile..... I have done a total of 6 more layouts with it.

So starting off with not challenge number one but the first one I really got excited about..... and its been awhile since I have let my Prima Diva play so what a perfect time with this stunning moodboard, so plenty of flowers and even the old resin stash got a work out this time.
