Sometimes I forget to share

my pages that are published.

I hold off blogging them just in case and

then it just slips my mind.

This one however is in this months

Scrapbooking Memories and I remembered 

cause I want to show Jazzy.

My beautiful neice Jasmine was 18 lase

July and this is one of my fave 

pics of her.

Love these natural photos.

My background page is Amy Tangerine. I've done a little stencilingand  stamping, but most of the page is done with My Minds Eye Pretty Things 6x6 paper pad and Record it (their version of  Project Life) cards.
I love this range and was bummed that it wasn't released as a  12x12 collection.

What colour is pomegranate?

That was my question when I looked

at this months White With 1 challenge.

The DT examples are awesome and show

a variety of colours so I took a peek at

Google and found this image to use as my

colour pallet. 

A fave photo of mine of Miss Coco when  she was only a few months old.

The Beautiful Miss Willow May

Willow May is the newest member

of our family.

She's 14 weeks old now and this photo 

is the day we brought her home, 6 weeks ago.

She's such a cutie.

My page is my entry for  

Once Upon A Sketch.

Criteria is a journalling theme 

"the best things in life aren't things"

Plus this gorgeous sketch.

My journalling is hidden on the tag

I made that's behind the photo.

My journalling relates to the quote in

 regards to my precious baby Willow.  

Our fur babies are definitely one of the 

best things in our life.

Our little treasures.

I spy some gorgeous Forget Me Nots from D-Lish Scraps.

♥

A little bit of recycling here.

The pink tissue paper and the white

spotted tissue paper are both 

packaging from the last couple of 

bras I bought.

It's too cute to throw out.

My first challenge done for June.

I really enjoyed doing some challenges last

month.  There were many

that I wanted to try but didn't have

the time, so I've made sure I started 

early on Junes.

My first one is the 123 Challenge Blog.

colour, blue

word, together

technique, masking

I decided to get on board with this cotton
thing I've seen popping up on pages.
I can see it becoming addictive.

I have just finished another one which hopefully I will have time to share tomorrow.
I also have to pages waiting for the backgrounds to dry properly so I can finish them off.
Am very lucky we have a 3 day weekend.

All You Need is Love, another D-Lish share.

I am so happy with how this page has turned out.

I started with a piece of patterned paper.  Added some

sprays and some texture paste.

The layered on the D-Lish Scraps goodies.

The Scalloped Chipboard Overlay has been given a

coat of gesso and then sprayed and sprayed some more.

I got the marble effect by using heaps of spray and chasing

it around the shape with my heat gun.

When it was dry, I would just add a bit more.

These beautiful mulberry butterflies come in white.

I have sprayed a few of them in a few different colours and they

are so gorgeous.

The muslin is so soft and the colour so pretty.

I scrunch it up a little before gluing it to my pages

to give it some dimension.

I made the little curlicues with some Coloured Wire.

So easy to make.  Just twist around the end of pen or similar

object and as you pull it off the pen, strech it a little.

The little stretching gives it a gorgeous tapered look.

I have used a hot glue gun to stick these

ones in among the flowers.  

I've made my flower clusters with  Vintage Roses, 

Cherry Blossoms, Forget Me Nots and Cosmos Daisies.

 I finished my page off by adding some of the pretty

Pearl Cabochons

Thanks so much for looking and I hope

you've been inspired to make some pretty pages.

My June D-Lish Scraps Share

So I have a little obsession with Journal It's.

I seem to popping them on everything.

 I popped eleven of them on this page.

I'm also a little in love with the coloured 
bags that you get from the

 D-Lish Scraps store.  They are so versatile.

On this page I have used them as my background and also

as little bags.

I started by cutting strips out of some Polka Dot

and Quaterfoil Rainbow bags.

Then I slipped some Journal It's underneath

the strips, like little tabs.

Lot's of Journal It's, some Kraft Sayings and some

Chalk Words.

Can never have too much of a good thing.

The Journal It's are also a perfect fit for the Bitty Bags.

I needed to use bright embellishments to match

the gorgeous colours of the bags.

The Pinkfresh Studio Colourblocks and Enamel

Brad Stickers were perfect for this.

And to finish it all off a Puffy Things stickers and a cute

little neon heart.

 Thanks for stopping by.  I will be

back tomorrow with another share.

This time a girly page with lots of flowers

and pretties.
