More Purple Pumpkin goodies…

Good Morning everyone,

How are we all feeling after the Purple Pumpkin sale?  I hope you all grabbed some new goodies.
I have a layout to share with you today featuring lots of yummy Purple Pumpkin details… which has also gone up on their blog.
Close ups first as I know you all love them!
Spotty buttons here and there… these would be my most used Purple Pumpkin buttons, love them!
Also lots of fussy cutting for this layout.
Twine and a Round cork and vinyl flower forms the base of my cluster.
How cute is that lil resin flower, I forgot where it’s from but I’m going to have to find out, as I have only one left!!
Love the Purple pumpkin hearts and the felt clouds I picked up a while back. The bow is Martha Stewart I picked up in a big pack of like 50 for $1 on sale at Spotlight.
And here is the full layout… so proud of my little miss, Student of the week in week 7 of her school year and it was for being a responsible and kind class member… she was so proud of herself too 🙂
I have done absolutely no scrapping this weekend, not one bit!  But I have worked on a little “project” which I’ll share soon.

A New layout for Craft Queen

Hi there everyone,

 I have always admired others monochromatic layouts and for ages and ages I have wanted to do one, so I finally did 🙂  It all started with these left over chipboard letters I had which I decided were way to large to ever be part of a title and then there were some that were different (not nice) colours and I thought I’m never going to use these up… until, brain wave… paint them with gesso (so they are a nice bright white and they look the same) and finally do that white monochromatic layout you always wanted to!!

and close ups…

Super happy with how this turned out!!
Craft Queen goodies:
Edge scallop Organza Ribbon
Organza Ribbon

Cob Web Ribbon
Crochet Flower
and
Kaiser Pearls

Flowers are Prima and Scrap Friends and the little ones I have no idea of sorry!! 🙂
Paper is Basic Grey.

My first Step by Step layout!!

Hello again there everyone,
I recently had the opportunity to create my very first step x step for the Scrap Friends blog!  I have worked with a Prima template and used it 3 ways in one layout.  To check out detailed instructions, be sure to pop over to the blog.  You can also grab all your materials at the store. (Full list is also on the blog)
And the full layout… Just love this photo and feeling proud that I actually took it – usually Chris my dh is the photographer.
Thanks for visiting today 🙂

The 3 P’s…

Hi Everyone,

A layout to share with you today I created for the Purple Pumpkin blog.  I wanted to show the change in Caitlin’s wardrobe from all the pretty pink dresses to her new school uniform.

I’ve layered up a heap of Pattern Paper, Purple Pumpkin and Prima…

I know how you all love close ups, doilies, buttons and twine all teamed with Prima.  I love using the small Purple Pumpkin doilies as part of a flower cluster with a brad through the centre.
How yum is that Pink/Yellow twine, the perfect match to my colour scheme and the fussy cutting!
Now did you know that the next Purple Pumpkin sale is going to be held at 7pm on Friday 25th May?  Sneaks will be coming on the blog and face-book soon so be sure to put it in your diary – I have heard there will be some new goodies that you will just have to have!!
