D-lish Scraps June share #2 - Little Helper

Hi everyone, I am back with my 2nd June share.

This layout I created, using a theme from the March cybercrop, monochrome layout. 

Of course, I had to choose pink as my monochromed theme. 

I started with the background that had been geli-plated then added texture paste through a  hexagonal stencil, and then a combination of sprays in different pink tones. 

I also added a bow from the Love like this kit bits and some of the new flower sequins.

The next cluster includes a paper doily, Green Tara jasmine flower, resin flower and Peach Twist kit bit veneer. 

Finally, the last cluster, has a flair button hiding at the top.

Pink is a great colour to work with. 

Until next time, happy scrapping.

Kraft+ October challenge

So October at Kraft+, is Blast from the Past challenge - using all those old bits we used to use all the time in our scrapping. Just telling a bit of a secret here, sometimes I still use some of those items in my scrapping :). Here is the challenge:

Considering that all of these items are still in my stash, there was no trouble in finding what I needed, lol. 

I scrapped a photo of great-niece Elise, she is so cute. 

The old items I included on my layout are ricrac, old patterned paper, vellum and brads. I also found an older stamp and an embroidered badge. To bring it back to current times, I included a swash of  Colour blast texture paste, Charms Creations heavenly heart and terrrific tab, and flair, tab and journaling tag from Studio fourteen 40.  

I had fun with this. 

Thanks for looking at my layout and for any comments you may leave.

D-lish Scraps December DT share - New Baby

Hi everyone, my turn to share for this month at D-lish Scraps, wow how the year has flown.

For my shares this month, I was going to focus on Christmas layouts, after all, we will all be taking pics of Christmas in the upcoming weeks. However I saw the moodboard for December, and just had to use it. I couldn't do a Christmas layout for this - I should have tried I know. Here is the moodboard, to refresh your memory:

Anyway, I selected a photo of my great niece Elise, who was only 5 days old when this pic was taken. I was inspired by the image of the mason jars with the word BABY and the string of stitched circles - hence what I have done in my background on this layout. I used a printed veneer butterfly, forget me not flower, mini rose and monochrome journal pack tag.

I also added to my cluster a  raw veneer which I coloured, a pick and place bow, medium rose, Green Tara tutu flower.

To the sides of the photo, I have added punchinella.

I think you will agree, this moodboard really is beautiful, so I hope you have time over the Christmas period to give it a go.

Deer and Fawn November challenge

This month at Deer and Fawn Designs, the challenge is to be inspired by this sweet picture:

This one has had me stumped, even though the image is so lovely, and the colours are lovely, I just wasn't sure how to go about this one. Anyway, I chose this photo of niece Kathryn, with her new baby, who was about 10 days old in this photo. 

I am not still not sure where I headed with this, but think it went down the shabby chic road, especially with the Websters Pages patterned paper, the doilies and the Charms Creations heavenly heart and terrific tab in the silver. I added some little feathers, as well as the wood veneer birds, to tie in the birdie theme. I loved the Kaisercraft title for this layout, I thought it worked well. 

Anyway, I suppose it looks alright. Maybe it will grow on me.

Thanks for looking and for any comments you may leave.
