Summer Scrapbook Page

Hello there.

Still not very summery up here in Scotland, but it was dry today. Me and the boys went to the park and for a walk and it was really nice. It's been raining constantly for days now so we were chuffed to get out. :)

I decided to do a scrap book page with an old photo of me and my first son. (he is now 11 and cringe every time I show him pictures of his as a baby. Hahah..)

We are on a beach called Roseisle. The sky was so blue. I had to use this photo. Please excuse my pink hair. :)

I have used DP from First Edition. I tried to make it simple. The stick on pearls and jewels are from Hobby Craft. The flowers were cut out from the paper. The paper is already pre glittered, love that!!

Thanks for coming by. Hope you all got good weather wherever you are. :)

Fairy Door Hanger

Gorgeous day here in Scotland today. Washing is out and grass is getting strimmed. :) Hope it lasts.

Here is a MDF doorhanger ( purchased this in bulk on Ebay) I have made for a little six year old girl.

The image is from Squiggle Stamps. She is called Fairy Gifts and I coloured her in with Pro Markers. Squiggle has a silly sale on at the moment and also a DT call. 

DP are from The Paper Company studio. They are double sided, so only used one sheet of 12 inch paper for this project. 

The scalloped border, flowers and bunting are all punched out with SU punches. The butterflies are from my stash and the ribbon is from Hobby Craft. The stick on jewels are from my local craft shop. 

Thanks for coming by. 

Have a great weekend.

Wedding Card

Morning.

Finally got a sunny day yesterday. Really enjoyed it, but looks like the rain is going to be on the rest of the week..scottish weather...:)

Here is a little card I have made for a couple getting married on Friday. It's not a very traditional card, but I thought I'd try to make something different.

The DP are from Prima, the ribbon and stick on jewels are from Hobby Craft. The hat pins are from my local craft shop.

Used my Cuttle Bug machine to cut some shapes, and a Stampin Up punch for the scalloped edge.

The toppers I made myself. I drawer on the back of the card stock and cut it out and did a bit of folding and blinging. Really enjoyed making this card, now to hope the happy couple will like it. :)

Squiggle Stamps Challenges - Red, white and blue

A fortnight has gone so quick. June is such a busy time with all the end of school term activities and such. Can't believe it's the first of July already!

We have a new challenge over at Squiggle Stamps, this fortnight the theme is Red, white and blue, perfect for an Olympic or independence day theme. I however made a card with a bit of a french theme.

I won these DP on a challenge blog, they are by Prima and are called En Francais collection. Really lovely with lots of detail and cutouts. I layered the papers with lots of white card stock.

I used an image from the Jessabelles range, she is called Frills and I coloured her in with Pro Markers. The flowers were punched out with my Boho SU punch. The pom pom ribbon was a freebie from a craft magazine. 

There is a summer sale over at Squiggle Stamps, so go for a nosy and grab a bargain. And there is also a DT call at Squiggle, if you are interested. Had lots of fun making this. Hope you all are enjoying your sunday.

Shopping List

Morning.

Well, after a lovely sunny day yesterday, the rain is back again. :( Hopefully it will be sunny over the holidays, otherwise I am going to have some bored little boys in the house.

Here I have decorated a shopping list pad. I bought this pad from Asda. I used some Fancy Pants DP.

The image is from Squiggle Stamps. She is called Frills and is from the range Jessabelles. Coloured her in with ProMarkers.

The ribbon is from my local craft shop and stick on pearls are from Habico. Now I just have to go make  a list for my weekly shopping. :)

Dream Valley - 34 - Things with wings

Hope everyone has enjoyed their sunday, despite the weather. Very rainy and dull up here in Scotland. On the plus side more time to spend indoors crafting. :)

Today we have a new challenge over at Dream Valley Challenges. This fortnight the theme is 'things with wings'. Anything will do, scrapbook page, altered project, card, jewellery, as long as there is wings. Lots of fab inspiration over at the blog, so why not join in. :)

The sponsor this time is Digi Doodle shop. One lucky winner will get a $10 voucher.

For my DT project I have made a card using papers from K&Co. Thought I'd go all out with wings so chose DP with a butterfly on it. I layered this card with champagne and white card stock from the Paper Mill near Aberdeen. 

I used an image from Crafts and me. This one is called Moon Glow. I am totally obsessed with some of these images, designed by Hannah Lynn. If you look at my blog I have lots of cards with these images, so much fun to colour in and so pretty. I used Pro Markers, as usual, to colour. Added a bit of glitz with my glitter Sakura pen.

The sentiment is from Stampin Up, I also used some Stampin Up punches for the sentiment. The ribbon , jewel clusters and heart charm is from my local craft shop.

Really enjoyed making this card and challenges are always fab over at Dream Valley. Looking forward to seeing everyones 'things with wings'.

Wedding Invitation

Here is wedding invitations I made for my friend's wedding. She is getting married in October. She is having a family wedding in the very beautiful Drummuir Castle,  a few miles away from here.

Had lots of fun making these invites, especially because she is a very good friend of mine. Her and her future husband opted for classic wedding invitations, white with one colour. They chose gold/champagne to go with the image. The image is a rubber stamp which my friend lent me, I think it's from Inkadinkadoo. 

I did outlines on the image with Satin coloured Pro Marker and added some glitter with my Sakura pen and a little champagne coloured gem on the heart. I used plain smooth white card stock and gold/champagne coloured card stock. 

I printed out the sentiment and layered it on gold/champagne card stock, using a scalloped oval punch from SU. The ribbon I purchased from my local craft shop in Elgin. The envelopes I purchased in Moray Office Supplies in Elgin. Wanted everything to match so was chuffed when I found them.

Thanks for coming by.

Best of luck to the happy couple

Fairy Card

Morning.

I have made another card using one of Hannah Lynn's images, from Crafts and Me. Absolutely love these images, so much fun to colour in. She is called Moon Glow. I coloured her in with Pro Markers.

The DP are from Fancy Pants, designed by Michelle Coleman. I layered these with lots of orange card stock. The big laced flower I used with a die from Magnolia, and the birdcage die is from Tim Holtz. 

The sentiment is from Stampin Up, I also used Stampin Up punches for the scalloped background for the sentiment. Pins, ribbon and stick on pearls are from my local craft shop.

Quite a plain card for me,  but the image is so gorgeous, it totally makes the card. Lots of fun making this. Thanks for coming over for a nosy. 

Have a great sunday.

Dragon fly girl

Afternoon. Made another little project today. I have purchased a couple of stamps from Crafts And Me, and I am totally obsessed with them. They are a joy to colour in and so so pretty. Here I have used one of them. This one is called Dahlia, and is designed by Hannah Lynn. Just love, love it. So much fun to colour in. I used Pro Markers for this image.

I used DP from First Edition (Trim Craft). Half the stack are pre glittered which is great. The roses, hat pins and the stick on jewels are from the local craftshop. The stick on green pearls are from Habico. I used Stampin Up punches to punch out layered flowers and the background for the sentiment, which is also from SU. Layered with lots of coral and white card stock. 

Really enjoyed making this birthday card. Thanks for coming by and have a great weekend.
