So Lucky

Thought I'd do another post while I had a chance and play along with Simon Says Stamp and Show Water Challenge.

This layout shows the ocean front at Glenelg near Adelaide. I used some mists and diluted paint for some colour on top of the texture effect stars.

Pretty crummy shot of the layout...sorry! Bad lighting today.

Here are some better detail shots...

Chevrons!

I have been a horrible blogger lately! It must be that time of year.

I decided to play along with Moxie Fab World's Chevron challenge. I adore chevrons and can't get enough of  them.

Published...again!

I know I haven't posted anything in ages. Grrrrrrr....too much work! But here's a special layout I have been dying to share. It's in this month's Canadian Scrapbooker magazine! 

A very special layout of our trip to visit my dear friend Charlotte in Australia. 
 

I created the clouds with Martha's texture effect. Really cool! Plus a fussy cut banner.

I embossed more clouds into this vellum and made journalling with my Dymo label maker.

I rolled some flowers out of canvas, and hand folded some chevrons.

Celebrate Today

This week, it's everything "metal" over at Simon Says Stamp and Show. I dug out this metal frame and matching brads from my stash for this birthday card. I love the spring-y colours on a cold snowy day like today!

Keep warm out there!!

Say Cheese

I needed to make my father in law a birthday card so I had fun using some new stamp sets. He's a real photo buff so I thought I would play along with the Moxie Fab World Camera Craze challenge.

I used my new Framed Out set from PTI plus my new Insta Love set from Your Next Stamp.

Happy Day

I thought it would be fun to play along with the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger. It's all about notions! 

Here's the inspiration photo...

And here's my take on it...

Hope you are having a great weekend!

Our Special Holiday

I have been a bad blogger lately! Too much work!! Bleh.... But I just had to play along with Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge this week...Something Messy! 

I decided to "throw" some gesso at my layout background. Just for fun.

Here's some closeups...
