A little bit pastel

This months challenge at White With 1 is white + pastels + masking. And yes, my page is white but we're in Winter Peeps, and  there's no hope I have of getting a decent pic after work at the moment. LOL @ each of the 4 pics looks a different shade of white :) I cut out a background shape with my Silhouette and used it as a mask for this page. It worked awesome!  Definitely will be trying that again.

A big ol' flower cluster.

Have finally finished this page that I started at Marelle's crop day in May. I had bought some massive Prima flowers in this collection and am not a fan of a big flower :)  Had no idea what to do with them so I grabbed one and just went for a big ol' flower cluster.

Thanks for looking. Enjoy Saturday!!

I had an awesome weekend

I started my Saturday at Kaisercraft for the Victorian Scrapbooking Memories

Masters Tour.

I took 3 awesome classes and loved them all.

Am playing catch up on my unfinished ones, but this page taught by 

Leonie Neal-Dawson is complete.

I love it.  Love the colours and I knew this photo of Teagan would be perfect.

So happy with the end result ♥

My time in my craft space on Sunday was spent using the same technique on a page I've made for this months Show Us Your Stuff challenge.

My handmade embellishment is the little bunting.

These boys are gorgeous!!

My prima doll stamps

I was having a tidy up of my computer and found these

tags I made about 6 months ago that I haven't shared yet.

Along with a lot of other things too :)

I ♥♥♥ these stamps.

The tags have all been paper pieced and have bits and

pieces out of my stash.

I had a lot of fun with them trying to do each as a different

side to my personality.

This one is my fave.

blah blah blah

channeling my inner teenager 

I've just grabbed a couple more of these and some of the angel wings that have been released.
Can't wait to have a play. Will add it to my never ending things to create list :)

Christmas in July

Welcome to our blog hop!!

take 2 cause half my post didn't show

And Merry Christmas.

For me this was all about using up some of my stash.

I am absolutely not a fan of Christmas ranges but I knew the moment

I saw this My Minds Eye range that I absolutely

had to have it.

Last Chrissy was Miss Chloes first and I have so many pics of her.  I thought that

using a filmstrip or two was a perfect way of using up a group of similar pics.

                               

♥

she's a little bit cute

♥

Same range again and this time with a pic of Jord taken who knows when cause

I forgot to put a date on here.  An oldie but a goodie ♥

hmm....I so hope banners don't go out of vogue ♥

I don't think the flowers on here look odd, even though it's a boy page.

I think because of the theme and paper they take on more of a Chrismassy look

than a feminine one.

The next 4 pics are of a few cards I made.

I just took one piece of double sided paper and the left over stickers and chippys

that I would have just thrown in the back of who know where for probably

forever.

So 1 piece of paper, some scraps and things and I have 4 cards all done for Christmas.

In like 161 days ♥

Hope you found a little inspiration.

Enjoy the rest of the hop.

ho ho ho

I have a new addiction

I've started something I said I never would and it's quickly turned into a new obsession. I am a Project Life junkie!!
I can't believe it.  I said I would never go there.  I said it was the most boring think I could image doing.  I said it had no creativity.  I said it had no individuality. I started. Now I'm hooked.
Project Life the way it was meant, would boor me to tears.   Plus all the two pages per week and the numbering of each week does my head in. The thing I don't get the most is the numbering of the week we are in, as in week 1, week 2,  week 3. Can you imagine in 50 years time kids saying to each other "remember what we did in week 26" It makes no sense to me.
For me, it takes away the reason I scrapbook which is solely for a creative outlet.
I don't use PL kits.  All I have is the albums and the page protectors.  I make my pages as I feel like it and make my cards from my stash. Of course this new ventre has given me a new excuse to increase that said stash :) I've been doing if for about 8 weeks and started my pages from March....that's how far I could stretch my memory bank. 
 I've seen so many ways that people are tackling PL but decided the best way for myself is to just do chronological order.
NO OTHER RULES APPLY
So I'm just going with the flow and even though it's fairly new to me still, there is definite differences in the first pages I did compared to the last.
I have only a couple of pics to share so far...middle of winter and no good light. This is a progress shot of my first pages.
Looking back I already want to tear it apart and do it  differently but I'm making myself leave it as is.
The finished pages definitely look very different.    

 Before I started my Project Life, I joined in a swap on the Facebook page.

This one is a 3x4 folded card.
 Oops, forgot to take a pic of the finished

project and didn't have enough paper left to make one for me ♥

Was really happy with the end result 

This is last months swap, 3x4 pocket card.

I'm a little bit in love with these ones.

Must remember to make one for myself next time.

Enjoy your Sunday ♥

Have you seen this online mag?
