Wow, been a while where does the time go????  Today I thought I would show you a couple of projects I have made for a good friend of mine.  The first is a couple of 16th Birthday Cards for her twin Nieces.


I have used left overs from my Prima Almanac Paper Pad.  The ribbon is SU which I just love! The printed flowers are from Prima, Almanac Essential Petals. The flowers are from my stash and as is the Pearl Stems all from Paper Flourish.  I have used Spellbinders Lacey Circles and Lacey Squares which I have layered up...




The second project is a BTP clock. I have stained all the wood with Picket Fence Distress Stain, the clock is from Kaiser which I have decorated using Kaiser Lullaby Collection.  The white doilies, rhinestones, pearl strips and mini paper blooms are all also from Kaiser, the larger blue roses are from my stash and the white lettering is American Crafts Thickers.......
Thanks for looking, hope everyone has a great weekend and enjoys the school holidays, hopefully my next post won't take me nearly a month to write.......

Back again after a very busy but fun long weekend, I hope you all had a good one too!!  I thought I would share with you my projects that I have made for the Prima Challenges, Anna's Craft Cupboard Sketch Challenge and Bizzy Becs Store Challenge.


The first project is the Prima June BAP http://prima.typepad.com/prima/2012/06/june-bap.html  I have used an older range Fairy Flora for this one. The punch is a Martha Stewart punch around the page. I have used MFT Die-namics dizzy doilies, Magnolia heart swirl Doohickey and Memory Box Vivienne Butterfly.  The alphabet lettering is Prima as is all the flowers. And I have inked all the edges with Frayed Burlap.


Secondly is the Prima June PPP http://prima.typepad.com/prima/2012/06/june-ppp.html.  I have used a canvas for this one, which I put Muslin on and then painted over with Gesso, then used Glimmermist.  I have used SU Glass Glitter around the edging, paper doilies.  Again I have used several different Prima flowers, hearts and Vines.  Lastly I have punched out several butterflies with the Martha Stewart 3 in 1 butterfly punch.


The last one I am going to share with you this evening is my entry for Anna's Craft Cupboard June Sketch Challenge http://www.annascraftcupboard.com.au/gallery3/showphoto.php?photo=7321.  I have used white bazzill as my base which I have misted with Smooch Spritz, the purple cardstock is Lilac from Kaiser.  The PP are My Minds Eye, as is the So Beautiful Die Cut.  The flowers are Prima, the vintage trinkets Bo Bunny.  I have used the Eyelet Punch from SU, Cheery Lynn Flourish Die and lastly American Thickers for my title.  Thanks for looking!!

As promised I said I would be back with some pics of my New Craft Room, but first I will show you some old ones :)

So this used to be my old desk where I used to work!


My many stamps and storage cupboard.


Filing cabinets for papers, embellishment drawers etc.


My handmade and bought storage and of course my computer!!!

Now for the New Craft Room!!!!!!


So I still have lots of storage but set out in a much neater and alot easy to access.


Loving my nice new extra desk, still have my beloved computer, and now have a gorgeous hot pink wall.


More storage, ribbons all colour coded and lastly all my Big shot Equipment together.....  So very happy how it turned out, now to add some extra hours in the day to be able to spend more time in here!!!!!

Hi, back again to share with you the signature album I have made for my best friend's 30th this weekend back home in Kaniva Victoria.....



I have used the Kaiser BTP wooden 30th album, the papers are also from Kaiser's Love Notes Collection!   I have used assorted Kaiser paper flowers and the ribbon and roses are randoms from my stash. I didn't paint the album, I just inked the edges with some SU Pixie Pink Ink and finished the album off with Kaiser hot pink rhinestone strips.


The second and last project is my LO that I have made for the Paper Flourish monthly scrapbookers challenge, this month the challenge was "All About Me" and make it bold and bright....  I have used Bazzill white as my base and sprayed cranberry zing glimmermist onto this.  The papers are American Crafts Amy Tangerine Collection as are the stickers.  I have used the heart swirl doohickey from Magnolia, American Crafts and Prima Thickers.  Some Prima flowers and also some other flowers that I have in my stash. I wasn't sure how I would go with this one but I really enjoyed it. People who know me  well will know that I normally don't do pages with myself as the subject :)
