mojo is well and truely back this week

It would be hard to go wrong with the new fancy pants Father and Son range. I just loved doing this multi texture layout of Grandson no 1 meeting Grandson no 2 for the first time.

I have used glam rocks, perfect pearls, my texture boutique with Tim Holtz plates, eyelets and the cropodile, ezyshade, Tim Holtz distress inks, metallic stayzon and various stamps, flourish with a bling swirl and, clear stationary tabs and my fastenator.

I started with the basic papers I wanted to use and did the basic layout, as I wouldn't be able to finish it I used pink tags to write my plan across the layout - I often think I'll do something but when I get back to it I have forgotten what I wanted to do. I also photographed the layout as I went to remind me where everything should be if I didn't get back to it for a couple of days. Then I added the title and other embellishments where I wanted them to go.

This one tells me that I plan to use perfect pearls on the title.

This one tells me which stamp I want to use, it's a great way to build a layout as you go for stunning results.
Happy scrapping H

the things a girl does when she can't sleep .....

I woke at 1130 last night and could NOT get back to sleep so I got up and between 12 midnight and 1.30 am created this layout using the Fancy Pants Wishful thinking papers. I figure I should create in the night more often -no distractions and look at the results.

ohhh scrappy day

After a couple of hectic weeks at work and getting ready for the Hobbysew Echuca Make Take and Demo Day yesterday I spent the day finishing off some layouts. It's the first time in ages that I have scrapped for me - just because I was having fun, feeling creative and relaxing......

Unconditional Love - using Pink Paislee Starlight collection, glam rocks and hot rocks, this layout is about Snow and Chas's special bond

Timeless - this one uses a mix of leftover Graphic 45 and Collections papers, old sheet music, spun sugar spritzed doilies, cheap shop foil stickers, antique eyelets and brads.

A is for Alex - using the Pink Paislee Starlight collection leftovers and coloured pearls I love this layout of Alex riding his jeep. I finished this one off yesterday arvo and I had pearls everywhere - even on my cheek as I discovered at the pub last night.

 

More than the best of friends: Cousins - is my fave layout from today- I used scraps from a couple of Kaiser ranges, an old piece of Basic Gray, pink Paislee vine and flower, smooch and Thickers alpha stickers.

tripping down memory lane

I LOVE my new negative scanner, it's taking me back frame by frame. So many great memories, my 21st, my new baby, old flatmates, me at 15, 70's fashion, enjoy the slide show as I share a few frames of my life with you.

Some random old layouts just because
