Who You Callin A Princess

WOW.......I have just come back from one of the most enjoyable retreats i've ever been to......

Look at that bunch of amazing ladies........my heart is full.

I scrapped, laughed (so hard that sometimes a little wee came out), drank, caught up with old friends and made some amazing new friends. I am definitely having withdrawals now.

One of the challenges I created was a "Scrap The Girls" challenge that was sponsored by Colour Blast and Charms Creations

The challenge was to be inspired by the current moodboard

This is the layout I created

 

And thanks to some amazing ladies who actually liked and voted for my page I won this amazing prize pack so very kindly donated by the sponsors listed above

I feel blessed and honoured....and so excited all at once

Thank-you so much

As Summer Comes to a Close

Good Morning Everyone,

Well isn't the year flying by.....can you believe it's only 2 days until the end of January? 

Which means it's nearly the end of summer....*insert sad face* - There are so many memories captured in summertime.

Today I am sharing with you layouts #2 and #3 that I created with the November "OMG THIS KIT IS PERFECT FOR ALL THE SUMMER PHOTOS" Cropaholic Kit

There are so many amazing products in each kit you will receive the instructions and materials for the three layouts in the kit that I designed. Just a reminder......

Especially if they are scrapped..........

This layout was super fun to create and it also uses old stuff in your stash that you probably never thought you would use - the possibilities are endless 

Some of the other products I have used for these layouts can be purchased in the Shop and Crop shop. Click on the product to check it out -

Some Summer Inspiration

Good Afternoon my friends, 

We all get busy in our lives and get consumed with the going ons of others: in saying that, over the last 5 years of juggling full time shift work (Nursing), 4 children, a husband and a household I have realised that no matter how hectic life gets its always important to make time for yourself and to do what you love...even if it is for only a small time of that day. Keeping yourself happy means you are better at keeping others happy.

This is where we come in at SHOP AND CROP to help you manage your time and make the most of your day....... A CROPAHOLIC KIT I hear you say....OMG what a fantastic idea !!!!

Cropaholic Kits are our 'deluxe' monthly kit containing approx $79.00 worth of co-ordinating products and instruction sheets for two to three layout designs (or sometimes BTP projects/cards etc.) for just $73.95 per month (for subscribers). A perfect way to get those memories created without having to take precious time away from other things in your life.

Today I am sharing one of the layouts from the NOVEMBER CROPAHOLIC KIT that is still available featuring products from 49 & Market Sea, Sand and Sun Collection that was designed by MOI.....This kit includes:

• 1 49 & Market Sea Sand and Sun Collection 12 x 12 Paper Pad Collection
• 1 49 & Market Sea , Sand and Sun Embellishment Sheet
• 1 set of Scrapmatts Chipboard
• 1 Colourblast Shimmer Spray
• Specialty Mix Media Texture.
• exclusive embellishment pack 
• Cardstock
• 1 Bubble stamp

Check out the individual pages and some of the products I have used that are included in the kit:

And a Close Up of some one of the embellishments:

This is just one of 3 layouts that come in this pack - all with instructions - and let's face it, sometime's we just don't want to think about what we are creating......agreed???

Have a think about it....I'm sure you will agree...and remember...

Time to Scrap the Christmas Cheer

Good Afternoon,

I have some more festive inspiration from the Shop and Crop Kaisercraft Kit that can be purchased HERE ...this is the 3rd and 4th layouts that I have been able to create from this kit packed with awesome goodies and guess what.......I still have leftovers that I could have created more.

Hot Tip: It's OK to turn a pattern paper around the wrong way.......it can still work nicely :)

The only thing I added here that was not provided in the kit were the chipboard stars and the string of pearls. Here are some close ups.......

Here is my second layout for you all...

Hot Tip: I have used both sides of the patterned paper and the title strip - nothing pretty goes to waste here

The only thing I added here that was not provided in the kit were the pearls and the Idea-ology Label Letters but you can buy them in the shop HERE. Here are some close ups....

That's it from me today.......just some inspiration to help you wit your 2017 Christmas Photos

Till next time

Happy Scrapping
