BLOG PROBLEMS

Computers - they seem to be so difficult sometimes.  I appear to have lost the majority of my photos - which is not good for a scrapbooking blog!!!.   I apologise for anyone that is looking at past posts and only seeing a grey circle.  I am endeavouring to fix this asap.  Fingers crossed for an easy fix.

The Scrapbook Boutique Design Team Reveal

Happy Saturday everyone - It is a cold and wet day here in Tassie so the perfect weather for scrapbooking.  I have created a layout for The Scrapbook Boutique using the Kaisercraft Collection - Sea Breeze

I created the background by using a Tim Holtz Stencil and Texture paste mixed with Finn's acrylic paint - Mettallique Steampunk Copper.  Some stamping around the photo matt area with Kaisercraft Arty Clear Stamp and Momento Desert Sand Ink as well as the Deep Red Brickwall Background with Black ink.

The photo matt was created with pages from the 6.5 x 6.5 Sea Breeze pad.  I inserted stickers randomly around the photo matt from the sticker sheet including the words.

Here are some close ups:

I hope that this has given you some inspiration this weekend. 

Until next time - Happy Crafting :)

Colour Blast Design Team Reveal - cute cards!

Hi there!!  Today I would like to share with you cards that I made for Colour Blast using left over paper from my last layout and the Heartfelt Creations Stamps from the Winking Frog Collection.

This is the paper that I stamped with my stencil after the butterfly layout the I made earlier in the month.

I used Colour Blast Paste - Bling and a Kaisercraft Number Stencil over the entire paper

  I sprayed it with Colour Blast Shimmer Spray -  Envy & Lipstick.

I then cut it into four pieces and edged with Distress Ink Pine Needles.

I stamped the images onto cardstock and painted with watercolour paints, edge with distress ink and adhered to the numbered cardstock -  Add a couple of Kaisercraft bling stones and 4 cards are done :)  Here are close up photos of  the other three cards that I made

I have linked the products used below.

Thanks for stopping by and until next time.............

Happy Crafting :)

Colour Paste - Bling
