Scrapmatts........Beach Dreaming.....sigh!

 Happy Hump day, people!!!

 Today I have a bit to show you.... so get comfy!
Firstly, my Design Team reveal for Scrapmatts .
 This month we were asked to create an off the page project and also a layout, (for the layout we could choose a colour combo from these 3).

1. Black, White and Red
2. Black, White and Yellow
3. Monochromatic

For my Off the Page project I decided to use the new Memory Cabinet. A few of the DT members have created some stunning examples....make sure you pop over and have a look in the Scrapmatts Gallery.

I love how this bit turned out!!!!

It looks like a windy, cloudy day....and the netting looks a little like foamy sea.

 

 I've used Scrapmatts- Nautical Design (CB4059), Scrap Words (CB1200).....buttons from

Craft Queen 

The lovely Miss Annette gave me the netting.....bless her little cotton socks. The shells I had just laying around and some seed beads.

 

 

The Memory Cabinet

looks like this is it's raw state....which I love! I really didn't want to paint it but it had to be done....think how awesome this would be done up for a special someone....the possibilities are endless! (and super easy to put together).

 

Now here is the layout I created....

{You Make Me Smile}

I decided to do Black-White-Yellow 

Chevron washi tape and buttons from Craft Queen

Look at those Silhouettes (CB1196), aren't they cute!  I've also used the Scrap Words (CB1197)

If you look at the pic of my cheeky little man you will see a narrow black frame that is also in the pack of Silhouettes. I love how you can use every bit of Scrapmatts!

 

Thanks so much for stopping

Hope your having a great week

 

Oh! very excited to be on

CSI

Most Wanted List....

with this layout

Thank You

CSI # 70 Day Challenge and Happy Mother's Day

Hello and Happy Mum's Day......
                                                   hope you all get a little spoilt today!
 Actually I had a horrible start to mine....poor Hugo has a bad cold which in-turn triggers off his asthma.....think it was about 3:30 before I even closed my eyes. Hugo seems a bit better this morning, thankfully....sigh!
 Roy cooked me breakfast, (scrambled eggs, bacon, fried tomato and toast). Kidlets wandered in and gave me my awesome Mother's Day stall, gifts.... Now they won't let me touch anything to do with cleaning.....God love ém !!
  Thinking of my Mum today as well......LOVE YOU!!!!

Now onto the CSI #70 Challenge.

Pretty isn't it!
   and this is what I came up with....

 {Guidance}

Flowers, washi tape and trims from Craft Queen 

Evidence-flowers, metal eyelets, circle button, woven circle.

Testimony- One of the roles I play in being a mother.

I really enjoyed creating this layout....

 

The reason I called this Chief Guidance Counsellor is that Mr Hugo actually has many guidance counsellors.....But I am Chief!!!! With 3 older sisters and 4 older brothers he surely has plenty of role models..... and awesome guidance!
 Thanks for stopping in.....Hope you have a truly sunny day

Love and Hugs

Scrapfriends Sketch Challenge #13

Hello Scrappy friends.......
   I'm really enjoying some of the inspiration from

 Scrapfriends

the sketches are pretty awesome

(make sure you pop over and have a look at what the amazing DT have done with this sketch).

That's why I just had to have a go at it!!!

 

I've used some lovely Circle trim, flowers and embossing folder from

Craft Queen

 

 {Sparkle}

 

 

 

 I've also used this gorgeous frame from Scrapmatts {CB4056}...

I have been saving this ornate frame, cause I LOVE IT......and this layout was just perfect to use it on......My darling middle daughter, Madison. She is a very shy girl.....in this photo (that she actually allowed me to take) she was playing around wearing (her father's), Roy's glasses.

 

I've also used some micro beads....and EYELETS, yes I love them!!!!

The quote I've used as my title I found on FB the other day..... It was just right...

 

Also remember to checkout the classes I will be teaching at the Brisbane
