Summer time Fun - Stampin' Up!

Having a little fun with the back ground for this layout. Lola is enjoying swimming at Nan and Pop's whilst we celebrated Christmas with all her cousin's.

Back ground was created by first spritzing Whisper White 12 x 12 page with water, then adding ink with a aqua painter, brushing it all over. Keep applying ink until you get the desired colour. I then used star decorative templates, and sponged ink over them. Stamped with Timeless textures. Punched out a couple of stars and sponged them and added as well. Stamping and adding a few beach toys, that I coloured and put fine tip glue on them (let them dry over night) and this gives them a shiny look.

Stamp Sets:- Timeless Textures, Day at the Beach, Layered Letters Alphabet, Suite Sentiments
Card Stock:- Whisper White 12 x 12, Wisteria Wonder
Ink:- Tempting Turquoise, Wisteria Wonder, Pool Party, Basic Grey, Daffodil Delight
Accessories:- Star punch, Fine tip glue pen.

Happy Stampin'

Simply Scrap Layout - Stampin' Up!

Just love these photo's of our 7 year old grand daughter Jordi. She is such a sweety, showing off her new little athletics shorts. Those little legs can run and run, but she can really do the long jump and loves it.

This is a very simple layout, using our Designer Series Papers, and matching with our inks, and using our alphabet stamps to create the title.

Stamp Set: Pun Intended, Layered Letters Alphabet

Card Stock: Night of Navy 12 x 12, DSP, Whisper White

Ink: Night of Navy

Quick, fun and stress free layout.

Greeting cards for Swan Hill Hospice

A great day had today, creating many cards for our local Swan Hill Hospice. Many local girls have donated many lovely cards to this great cause, so that soon we will be able to have our own hospice in our district. Our cards will go on sale at the end of this week at the new Swan Hill Health Medical Clinic. Thanks to Gail and Co for allowing this happen. All cards are $4.00 each and all monies go to the hospice. Please support this cause either by purchasing your greeting cards from us, or if you would like to create some cards to donate toward our cause this would be very much appreciated.

ESAD 2017 OCCASIONS CATALOGUE AND SALE-A-BRATION BLOG HOP

"H

Welcome to another ESAD blog hop. This is all about show casing some wonderful products from our new occasions catalogue that has just been released. You may have arrived here from the talented Andrea Buckland
Here are a couple of layouts that I created to highlight a few different products.  This first one is using the Balloon Adventures stamp set and the Balloon Pop up thinlits die, and also the ballon punch. Our grand-daughter Jordi, with her great mate Macey.

The next couple of layout are very similar, as I need to do 2 pages for both the girls albums. I have used the window box thinlits dies and window shopping stamp set on the above layout as well. I have also used the Big Birthdays stamp set, to do the flowers across the corners and Birthday Bright stamp set to do the banners at the top.

These layouts are super simple, so I hope you get an idea so you can create a few pages quickly. For your next blog hop on over to see Nerida Carter Fabulous projects.

Happy Stampin'

ESAD 2017 OCCASIONS CATALOGUE AND SALE-A-BRATION SNEAK PEAK

Welcome to the ESAD Occasions blog hop. You may have arrived at my blog from the amazing Rachael Lesley
For my project today I decided to use the beautiful Special Reason stamp set. I received this set as a prize patrol at our recent On Stage Live. I have teamed this with a Sale-A-Bration set, Delicate Details. You will be able to receive this set FREE with a $90- purchase from 3rd January. This set has 5 delicate borders that will suit any occasion.

I just wanted a black and white look, with a hint of colour. I used Pool Party to add a hint of colour and lift the page.

My second project is a simple card, teaming the stamp set with the fabulous Stylish Stems framelits. I used Basic Grey card stock, silver foil and the shimmer white, stamped with Flirt Flamingo and Mint Macaron, added a sliver heat embossed border around the sentiment. Added a little wink of Stella to the cut out flower embellishment.

A beautiful stamp set that you will want to have in your stash. Better still you can get this in a bundle, and this will give you $$$$$ to spend on a a FREE Sale-a-bration set.
Thanks for stopping by and now hop on over to the talented Cheryl Algie
