Lets Scrap Sketches 09-01-16. The new Design team first reveal

-
Pssst Guess what - Big news.....
I have been selected to be part of the Lets Scrap Sketches design team.

 Very exciting stuff I am looking forward to sharing my work and helping inspire some of you over the next 6 months. 

Now for the first sketch for this term from Mich,  
  


And here is my take on the sketch.
I got to spend some really good girly time with my 6 year old daughter, it was a fun and some what spontaneous day - I wanted to capture this feeling in my layout with the use of colour and surprise elements.
I really liked these hearts but didn't want them to be too bold and detract from the photo's, so I created some shakers out of vellum and for a bit of fun there are white beads floating around inside them too.
'Smile Crazy'
I just love my coffee
Here is have used some stitched stamps to draw your eye down the page.  I added some texture and softness by including some inked muslin between my layers.

I created my background using watercolour paints and Gellatos.  Building on top of that with some Bo Bunny stitch stamps, texture paste and inked coffee stains.  See below for a list of the products that have been used here:
AC Cardstock
Studio Calico Cardstock & Vellum
Texture paste
Heidi Swapp Cross stencil

Echo Park Circles stamp

Pretty Scraps

So I have a confession to make.....I'm a scrapbook hoarder!  I love to make the most of my supplies and hate to see anything go to waste.  As you would imagine then I end up with loads of unmatched pieces, and I continue to think 'ohh but that's pretty I'll keep it just in case I do another layout with similar colours'.  More often than not, if I do another layout with similar colours I end up with more scrap pieces of paper.  I made it my mission the other day to use as many scrap pieces that I could......wow did I have a lot of small no wait not small but tiny bits of paper.  But I did manage to make what I think are some pretty cards with them...so mission accomplished!


Fish tail your strips at either end and stick them down, alternating colours.  I added a sentiment onto a circle die cut and then added the odd wooden embelishment that I found floating around.
TIP: A lot of the papers are single sided - My sentiments are stamped onto the blank side of the pape…

Welcome back it's that time again - yes another challenge!!!
This months challenge theme is party sponsored by Crafty Ribbons.  I took the theme of party and kinda went in the direction of invitation meets surprise. 

Here's what I came up with - hope you like it!

When I think about a party, even though I've never had one I think of a surprise party.  And so here the surprise is hidden on the inside. 




I used a resist pattern paper and then added some Heidi Swapp shine to it, I love the way that it sparkles!
Happy crafting everyone.
