Sweet moments...Can you tell that I'm in love with Webster's Pages? :) Love the new distress stickles in Rock Candy...like vintage glass glitter...I put them all over the flowers...can't wait to try the crackle paint version...:) Hope you have sweet moments to savour today..:)

It's Tuesday again! The challenge this week at Scrapping Out Loud is to add doodling to your layout. My layout, We love going to school, features my nephews in their school uniform. Can you see where I doodled?

Patterned paper: Prima, Others: Glimmer mist, flower bling, glossy accents, letter stickers and 3D dots.
Just wanted to try out the spiral flowers on a card (Carrie, what do you think?)...finally, some use for my shaped scissors (I have quite a few ;) I sprayed glimmer mist all over the card after attaching the paper flowers...and added some glossy accents to the flowers on the patterned paper. Do you like my You sparkle card?

It's a brand new week and this week's challenge at Scrapping The Music is the song Friends Forever...I went for the brights with my layout - Buddies...using bits and pieces of cutout scraps...those elements in olive green were misted using the frame from a Fancy Pants chipboard set and handstitched. Come play along! :)
*Edited* This layout was featured on the Sassafras blog...:)
Best wishes to you!
Just a quick card inspired by Get Sketchy. Happy Sunday!
I'm playing along with These are a few of my favorite things...the challenge is to scrap about your favourite room...mine is sort of a "room"...a little potted garden in the condo I used to stay...a beautiful patio space that opens up to the pool. I spent hours here, potting and landscaping...My first garden..:)
I'm sorry for the photo quality...it's so hard to photograph the portion where I cut off the back of the paper to create a frame with baby blue tulle...the tulle was scrunched up to create a 3D effect and the mini photos were attached to the tulle by 3D dots...it has a pop-out effect which you can't really tell by the photo.
*Edited* Here's a better photo..

Be open. To possibilities. Every generation has the chance to change the world. Be the change you wish to see in the world.
Inspired by One Little Word.
The song "I don't want to miss a thing" by Aerosmith is one of my favourites...I used the lyrics as my journaling for this layout featuring my littlest nephew...who's so chubby and smiley and I really don't want to miss a shot of him smiling or laughing...at 5 months, he thinks the camera is a toy so he looks directly at it. I went with a simple layout...nothing fancy...some stitching around the photo, ribbon & lace & brads and a couple of charms. Thought that the pink background would be too girly for a boy layout but I love the colour combination!
Do you like this song? I think it's perfect for babies even though it's supposed to be a love song...I just think it's pretty creepy to wake up and have someone staring at you because he/she doesn't "want to miss a thing" (chorus block)...lol ...humour me and laugh a little will you? Have a great Wednesday!
Inspired by Ad This and Butterfly Crafts.
This week's challenge at Scrapping Out Loud is Motif Madness! You must use a single motif throughout your layout. The motif can be from patterned paper or stamp. You can enlarge it, shrink it or just use it repeatedly on your layout. Fun, eh? My layout, Miss you girl, features my cocker spaniel who died in February this year...:( I chose a butterfly motif...I used a mask and did some misting on the patterned paper...I cut out the same set of butterflies on cardstock and embossed it...then adhered to the base paper using 3D dots. I added some butterfly bling around the title...Come play along!
*Edited* This layout was featured at my LSS's blog! :)
Doesn't this background paper remind you of the scene from The Ugly Truth? I just saw the movie...where Gerard Butler looked pudgy...still cute but I'm sorry, 300 set the bar way up...Speaking of which, Up is the song at Scrapping the Music this week. My layout, Growing up so fast, features my oldest nephew in a series of pictures documenting his growth.I added digital frames around each photo, then matted them on cardboard and added a little tulle (my latest favourite thing :) I added paint (with texture paste) on the clouds (hard to photograph! ) And check out my Basic Grey brad collection...these are all the colours I own!
Come play along! :)
Calling all my fashionista friends, isn't this dog trendy? :) The dog is carrying a purse...;) Had a fun time with this card!

Happy Sunday!
Are you having a fun day? I am the Guest Designer this week over at Get Sketchy, a fabulous card sketch challenge blog. The bonus challenge is (oh the horror!) no patterned paper! LOL.If you have never played along, you should this week...the prize is an amazing craft tote..
I did some upcycling again. (cardboard & netting)..packaging material is pretty useful...I used distressed embossing powders on the chipboard stars for a sandy feel...finally some use for seashells I've been collecting..:)
Hi friends! Realized I haven't made a card this week! Here's a cutesy one using my favourite animal stickers! Used my scraps for this...love the little window scene (reused packaging for this)..and stitching...
Inspired by Get Sketchy.
I picked up this butterfly print fabric recently...love the colours on it and also bought some baby blue tulle...fun stuff...adds a little see-through texture (thanks for the inspiration Maggi!)...I added a little at the top and some around the fabric (not the easiest thing to photograph...and I was losing daylight..lol...so use your imagination). Cutting the butterflies from the fabric was not easy since my Singer fabric scissors are so heavy but I love how they look..Lots of stitching..
Inspired by Point Blank Period.
