Butterfly Scrapbook Page

I have just had the most fantastic few days, midday Wednesday I had a knock on the door and what a surprise I had when I opened the door to two of my closest friends from Waverley. My sneaky husband new all about the surprise, how he managed to keep the secret I have no idea.
 
So the three of us had two fabulous days of scrapbooking at home, it was just what I needed. So keep an eye on my blog as I will share with you pictures of the pages that I completed while
the girls were here.
 
Here is the first one which I have titled Beautiful Butterflies....
We cased this page from Pinterest,
This page was originally created by the talented Stacy Cohen (www.stacychohen.blogspot.com)
I hope you  like my version of Stacy's page.....
 
 
 
The colours which I have chosen for this page compliment each other beautifully. The colours are Primrose Petals, Coastal Cabana, Basic Black & Whisper White.
The Flowers have been punched out of the Pansy Punch and then I have cut a slit through each petal.  The small flower is the Petite Petals Punch, which I have them played with a bone folder on the petals to get the raised look.  I have used a selection of items for the Butterflies, which include the two Butterfly Punch's & the Beautiful Wings Embosslits.

Just Add Ink #215 - Colour Challenge

Well its absolutely freezing this morning, winter is coming fast, the fire is going and the sun is shinning. So I decided it was time to get into the craft room and complete a challenge or two.
 
So I thought I would have a go at Just Add Ink's colour challenge for this week.
 

 
These colours straight away brought to mind Christmas, but I decided it was far too early to think about Christmas so I thought I would challenge my imagination and this is what I came up with. Hope you like it.

AW17 - Around the World Sketch Challenge

Well its absolutely freezing this morning, winter is coming fast, the fire is going and the sun is shinning. So I decided it was time to get into the craft room and complete a challenge or two.

I really do enjoy partaking in the Around the World Challenges they are a lot of fun and really gets my imagination flowing.  Here is the sketch that we had to use this month.

 
Here is my creation. A week or so ago I had fun playing with my Washi Tape collection from Stampin Up and some plain buttons that I had found. This playing resulted in a number of colourful buttons, these were my inspiration and main element for this months creation.

CCMC304 - Colour Challenge

Well its absolutely freezing this morning, winter is coming fast, the fire is going and the sun is shinning. So I decided it was time to get into the craft room and complete a challenge or two.
 
I jumped onto the Create with Connie and Mary Site and found this fantastic colour challenge.
 
 
At first I did not think I would like these colours together, but boy am I wrong. I just love these colours. 

For this card I have used the Soft Sky as my main background colour with just a highlight of Sahara Sand and topped off with the Basic Grey DSP Paper Stack.  I have used the Mosaic Madness stamp set and the Blossom Flower Punch, which I cut into to make finer petals.

Scrapbooking Page - Gorgeous Baby

 
Today I had such a great time teaching some of my customers this months Scrapbooking Page that I designed, Grogeous Baby. 
 It all started with the Stunning Watercolour Wonder Designer Paper, from our Current Occasions Catalogue. The colours are beautiful and the floral crisp cantaloupe page inspired me to create this Baby Double Page spread.
 
 
 
The subtle use of the Tea Lace Dollies and the Small Heart Punch just added the touch I wanted.
