White With One + Biscay Blue

So l am on a roll for this month. Squeezed in one more Challenge. Decided to have a go at White With One + Biscay Blue June Challenge.
The colour is Simply Gorgeous it's too hard to resist. 

Pop on over to their blog and checkout the Awesome Prizes up for this month. And check out the amazing work from the DT  Team they are  so Inspiring. 




This is my take on this months Challenge. 







I used Modelling Paste with a KaiserCraft Bubble Stencil to apply to my background. 
Then l used a Prima Bloom Spray, and a Dylusions Spray and sprayed over randomly over my layout. 
Added Glass Beads in with the bunches of Flowers, and a  bow.  I painted a Chipboard Word with White Paint. I think it makes the perfect Title for my page. 






Found a Blue Butterfly in my Stash, which worked in perfectly. 
Look at the Detail in my Background. 







I adhered some Hand Dyed Muslin that l made under the Photo to create some layers. 
Also added some Prima Diamond Flourishes, with some Flowers, and Glass Beads. 








A Close up of how it looks. So pretty, just love this colour. 





Really had fun Creating this layout. Loved working with the Colours. 
Thanks for Stopping by.

Happy Creating.

SCRAP THE BOYS JUNE CHALLENGE

I managed to Squeeze in one more Challenge this month. I have been wanting to enter this Challenge for quite some time now, and decided to give it a go.

This months Scrap The Boys Challenge has a Lovely Sketch to play with, l was super excited Creating this layout of my Son.
I very rarely get to take any photos of him, as they get older they are harder to take.
And its so nice to be able to Create a Boy page when all l ever seem to be doing lately is Girl Pages.

I just loved it, and it was so inspiring to do.  I got to use these Gorgeous Boy Papers, Kaisercraft Off the Wall.  Make sure you pop on over and check out Scrap The Boys blog.
Here is the link.

And now here is the Sketch.






And here is my take on this months Challenge. 







Some Close ups on the details, I used Stamping, Metals, a Flair, Epoxy Dot, Washi Tape, and some Black Cotton. 





I just love the Deep Red Water Droplets Background Stamp l used, with the Kaiser Grid Border Clear Stamp. Also applied some black Gesso Paint, using a lid off one of my paints, to Create the circles. 







I Love adding some Journalling too to my Layouts. 
It tells you the story. 







Lots of different techniques l used on this layout. Inking with my Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pads, Splattering Splats I used Tim Holtz Salty Ocean Distress Stain.  I also inked around the edges of the papers with Tim Holtz Black Soot.  I coloured two of the Chipboards with the Salty Ocean Ink Pad, and applied Black Soot around the edges. 




Thanks for Stopping by, 
Happy Creating,

Kraft Plus 2 Challenge







There are some great Challenges out there this month on some of the well known Scrapbooking Blogs.
Over at Kraft Plus 2's Blog spot, their Challenge this month was Circles and all about Animal Print.

I had some perfect papers to go with the theme this month, and also had my Into the Wild Cheetah Stamp, that l was wanting to use on a layout.

Really happy with how it all turned out in the end.  l embossed with black embossing powder with the Cheetah stamp, Distressed the  circles and used Chipboard painted  Circles around them.
Also dabbed White paint circles from a lid over my layout.

Had fun creating this layout. I just love doing layouts  on Kraft paper. l  used a  picture of a Baby Elephant  that l took  from the Melbourne Zoo, l  thought it was perfect for this layout.


Check it out there are some awesome prizes up for grabs. There are still a few days left to enter.

Summer Layout Share for Mad About Scrappin

This is my DT share for today's post for Mad About Scrappin.
I received a lovely kit for this month from Leanne. It was gorgeous to work with and loved using these MME papers. 

Here is a look at what l have come up with.




I have used a Kraft piece of Cardstock , and adhered a piece of Corrugated Cardboard and painted White Gesso over it  randomly.  Then stuck down one of the MME Jubilee Wild Honey range papers over the top. 

I used a Scrap Fx Circle Stamp in my background behind the photo. Added some hessian, and used a Quote card, a Polaroid Die cut frame, some flowers, a heart resin! a flair! and a arrow that l sprayed with sprays. 

Also added some different sizes in the MME papers and cut them into a banners. 

Added some of this gorgeous Bird on A Wire Washi tape l also got in my kit. Some flowers, and epoxy dots. Along with a title for my page, and a Amphersand wooden embellishment. 


Had fun creating this page this month. 
Pop on over next week to see what l have to share with you all. 

Happy creating.

MAD ABOUT SCRAPPIN SHARE.

This week l created this lovely layout for Mad About Scrappin as being a Designer for them l get to play with an  awesome range of goodies, that Leanne sends me each month. 
I am a lucky girl!

In my kit l got some adorable MME Jubilee Wild Berry range papers to play with.
I created a mixed media background using a SFX Random dots stencil with some modelling paste. I coloured a few of the dots in with Acrylic paint here and there on my page.

Im really happy with how it all turned out. I love how the colours just pop off the page when you use Black card stock. I think l will be doing many more layouts on Black card stock now.








Some close ups. 



More Gorgeousness, 





Love the detail with the stencilling, 




Love the little Black Insta Frame die cut. 




Thats it for this week,
