Hey there

Last week I had heaps of fun mixing and matching various Ebony Cuts on a layout. I love the Ebony Cuts so much because you can use them as is and don’t need to dress them up at all….although you could if you wanted to! On this layout called “Crazy Beautiful” I have used the Ebony Cuts Ebony Lace and Corner Set 1, Ebony Major Corner 1 and a butterfly from the Mini Butterfly Set 1.

I have added the Ebony Lace Corners to two of the photos on this layout and I think they make a really attractive photo corner. They would also be perfect for a vintage layout or card. I cut the Ebony Major Corner into two separate pieces so that I could better balance the page. It’s really easy to cut the Ebony Cuts just with your craft scissors or knife to suit your needs. The scrolls can be used on their own or they make a gorgeous addition to a flower cluster as I have used them on this layout. Hope you enjoyed this layout. I’ll be back soon with another one!!

Have a good week everyone!

Hi everyone

This week I played with the Frame of Hearts laser cut frame. The possibilities are absolutely endless with this sweet frame. I chose to use it on a layout featuring my daughter.

I started by inking the frame with a red ink to ensure that the end result would be a good solid colour. I traced the heart shapes onto some book paper and cut them out for later. Then I applied PVA Glue to the whole frame and covered with red glitter. Once it was all dry I then stuck the hearts onto the back of the frame and trimmed off any excess. Finally I cropped a photo to fit and attached to the back of the frame.

Have a good weekend everyone and thanks for looking

Hi Everyone…. well it’s a warm day here in Geelong today, hope you are all cool where ever you are.

Today I have two layouts to share with you, firstly a layout using Bursting with Love title and one o the GORGEOUS NEW black flourishes….love how you don’t need to do a thing with these…..just add them to your page… the Bursting with Love I have added a coat of 3D paint and then a couple of coats of Glimmermist.

Second layout is using the Spring from the Season’s set and Flower Set 1. The Flowers from this set are FANTASTIC!!!! I have simply inked them, doodled around the edges and adhered them with foam tape…..

Well that’s all from me today. Have a wonderful weekend and hope you get some scrapping time

Hi everyone!  Today I made two cards for occasions that I don’t think I’ve ever made a card for before.  Retirement, and a Hen’s Night.   Two very different occasions!  Speaking of occasions, 11 years ago today, I became a mother for the first time.  My darling daughter turns 11 today.  So, Happy Birthday gorgeous Lara xx

Onto the cards…  This first one uses the “Tree with a History” lasercut.  I simply sprayed it with a couple of layers of Glimmer Mist.  Love the stuff!

Happy Retirement

This next card has had me giggling while I made it.  I wanted a “hen or chicken” lasercut to go with the Ebony Words title.  So, while I’m not sure that this little “chick” is actually a chicken, she’s pretty cute and totally rocks the traditional Hen’s Night tiara and veil!!

Hen's Night

That’s all for today.  I’m off duty tonight, as our tradition is that the Birthday girl/boy gets to choose whatever they desire for tea.  No doubt Lara will choose McDonald’s, so that leaves me off the hook as far as cooking is concerned!  Oh Happy Day!

Wendy is a good friend of mine who does lovely scrapbooking.  She visited me recently and went home with a bundle of designs with the aim of creating some layouts for me to share with you here on our blog.

And here are the results.  What do you think?? Which is your favourite???

Hi everyone.

This week I totally loved using the RW Laser Cuts Wildflower Spray 3 Lg (K09254). It is so delicate and pretty that it just had to be included on my layout about my little fairy and her beloved frog.

I simply applied Versa Color Mountain Lake ink to the surface of the wildflower spray, pressing fairly firmly to ensure good coverage. Then I finished off with an apple green rhinestone in the centre of each wildflower. I really love the wildflower spray and I can see myself using it again, perhaps on a lovely outdoorsy farm layout next time!

Thanks for looking.

Here is a layout with a “Beautiful” title. I have painted the chipboard white and then stamped an image on over the white with Staz On Ink. This is an easy and effective way to spruce up your chipboard.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend.

Hi Everyone, I am back and have a layout to share.  Winter will be here before we know it and I thought I would share a layout using the Seasons K441 titles. You get all the seasons in this pack…. check back soon to see my summer, autumn and spring layouts!

Thanks for stopping by….check back soon for more layouts and cards…

I had so much fun this week playing with different coloured glitters on the Monkey Business title as well as a frame from the Card Frame Set 1.

I painted the monkey and title in matching acrylic paints first and then applied PVA glue before adding the different glitter colours. It’s best to do one colour at a time and start with the lightest colours first. How lucky that the laser cut perfectly matches my little boy’s t-shirt! To tie in with the t-shirt even further I added “Just a little…” using the classic font alphas which I then outlined with black pen. I also popped the centre out of the frame piece and covered the centre piece with book paper to match the cut out bits on the layout. Then I covered the outer frame with the brown glitter and simply popped them back together again.

Hope you like it!! TFL
